Young Irish immigrant Eilis is lured by the promise of America, and she departs Ireland and the comfort of her mother’s home for the sores of New York City. The initial homesickness quickly diminishes as a romance sweeps Eilis into the charm of love. But soon, her past disrupts her new vivacity.
Saoirse Ronan is the luminous star of John Crowley’s ravishing adaptation of the bestselling Colm Tóibín novel. This beautifully constructed and quaintly old-fashioned romantic yarn about an Irish immigrant in 1950s Brooklyn is attuned to the details of place and the struggles of displacement.
