"Have I got a nice Jewish girl/boy for you!" has been a familiar rallying cry among the Jewish people for over 5000 years. How these matches are made today would startle Abraham and Sara -- or would it? Filled with hope and humor, trials and tribulations, Allen Mondell and Cynthia Salzman Mondell's entertaining documentary captures the passion of Jewish singles looking for a match in today's America and the extent to which they will go to find a "catch." From Morristown, New Jersey to Crown Heights, Brooklyn to Dallas, Texas to San Diego, California, “Make Me a Match” introduces viewers to diverse styles of matchmaking. Witness a rabbi and rebbetzin's probing questions as they interview prospective clients the "old style" (but with a lap top); sit-in on a round table session with 24-enthusiastic suburban matchmakers as they ponder the dating lives of their clients; see how singles are searching and finding their Jewish better halves over the Internet. 2000, 60 mins., directed by Allen Mondell and Cynthia Salzman Mondell
