The movie follows Eilis Lacey, an Irish immigrant, who lands in 1950s Brooklyn. The initial shackles of homesickness quickly diminish as a fresh romance sweeps Eilis into the intoxicating charm of love. But when her past catches up with her, however, she must choose between two countries and the lives that exist within.
Based on Colm Toibin's novel, and starring Saoirse Ronan as an Irish immigrant in 1950s New York, this genial drama about leaving home welcomes you in.
With compassion, a touch of melancholy and a sense of wonder, Brooklyn reveals the profound truths in a simple, familiar story, ending on a note that's achingly bittersweet, no matter where you're from.
Starring Saoirse Ronan in a career-defining role (even more so than her first Academy Award-nominated performance in 2007's Atonement), it may just be among the finer historical period pieces in recent memory.
