"Brooklyn" will make you cry. It is the kind of movie filled with melancholy that anyone leaving home can fully understand. It is a movie about the passage into full-blown adulthood and the coming to terms with one's identity. There might some disappointments in the film, but they are microscopic compared to the glorious acting and filmmaking on display.
