A rich period drama that flits between early fifties Brooklyn and sleepy Enniscorthy, beautifully acted this feels like a movie from the golden age of Hollywood.
Normally i'd pretend a romantic drama like this isn't my 'thing' but when a movie is this good how could it not be my 'thing'. |
I saw
Brooklyn at the cinema and have watched it since (I own the Blu-ray release). I think it's a great film, one which beautifully blends real human drama with comedy to create something which is moving and eminently re-watchable.
