Life Decisions in BROOKLYN



Brooklyn is one of the best films of 2015. Set in the early 1950s, a young Irish woman named Eilis, immigrates to New York City in America to find a new life. There she learns about the world and its culture, and she finds love and a sense of self through her growing pains. As she explores her new life, she is pulled by her family ties to Ireland. It’s an emotional film not unlike coming of age films like I Remember Mama and An Education. What's remarkable is Eilis’ character growth from naïve and lonely to self-assured and experienced. As Eilis, Soairse Ronan (Atonement) is a revelation in capturing the accent, body movement, and soul of a young woman in the big city. (She will be an acting force for years to come.) Very solid support by Jim Broadbent and Julie Walters. Beautifully shot, the details of period recreation and a peek into the bonds of an Irish family would make director John Ford (The Quiet Man) proud. It’s a sentimental, nostalgic film of another period of time, but it rings true in any age.

 What sets this film apart from others is its sheer goodwill in emphasizing the intelligence and ingenuity of experts who want to do right. There are also no villains here, and that in itself is refreshing. The filmmakers have also painstakingly made this film scientifically plausible.
Scott has previously made two of the greatest scifi movies, Alien and Blade Runner. With this, he has perfected the trifecta. of Gravity.) Matt Damon shines in a role that is demanding physically and emotionally as the ill fated astronaut marooned on Mars who must find resourceful ways to grow his food and much more. (You will never look at a new plant the same way again.)
