Excellent adaptation (by Nick Hornby) of Colm Toibin's 2009 novel is sincere and absorbing, telling the story of a young woman from Ireland who emigrates to a very Irish Brooklyn, meets Italian, then returns home and faces a conflict of emotion. Good scenes with girls in boarding house.
Good cast: Saiorse Ronan, Emory Cohen, Domnhall Gleeson, Jim Broadbent, Julie Walters, Brid Brennan (horrible woman with shop), Fiona Glascott (the sister), Jane Brennan (the mother), Michael Zegen (from The MMM).
Music: Michael Brook. Photography: Yves Bélanger. Editing: Jake Roberts.
