Friday Film Club: Brooklyn

Colm Tóibín’s New York Times bestselling novel, Brooklyn, made into an acclaimed film about a young Irish immigrant in Brooklyn in the early 1950s. “One of the most unforgettable characters in contemporary literature” (Pittsburgh Post-Gazette), Eilis Lacey has come of age in small-town Ireland in the hard years following World War Two. An immigration tale, not based on need, but love… or maybe they are one in the same.
