Brooklyn
8/10
The
second movie Cam and I watched was Brooklyn starring Saoirse Ronan
who I later realized I'd seen in Hanna and The Grand Budapest Hotel.
Brooklyn is about a young girl from Ireland named Ellis Lacey being
given the opportunity to move to America in the early 1950's. She
leaves behind her mother, sister, and her friends. She gets there and
is all kinds of sad until she meets this super nice guy Tony played
by Emory Cohen with an Italian family. She lives in a boarding house
with these other girls and they bring most of the funny moments at
the dinner table. There was one moment that made me cackle for a
moment surely embarrassing Cam.
While
living in Brooklyn she gets a nice job and is in love so of course
tragedy has to strike. I wont say what happened in case you see this
which you should. The look of this movie was very good as well as the
acting. I liked seeing Saoirse and Tony together in this. He reminded
me of Ryan Gosling in Drive but less killy. If you get a chance to
see this you really should. I'm not sure how much attention it is
getting but it should be getting more seeing as how I didn't know it
existed until I was sitting in the theater.
