      Saoirse Ronan is now regarded as one of the top actresses of her generation, but that was not the case in 2015. At that time, she was a young woman on the verge of movie stardom, and **Brooklyn** was the film that highlighted her immense talent.

      As Eilis, Ronan portrays a young woman who immigrates to America with nothing and gradually learns to embrace her new home. She brings Eilis to life as a loveable character who remains deeply relatable. She’s funny, reserved, and ultimately optimistic about her new life.

      It serves as a tribute to 1950s New York.

      There’s a strong romanticism in director John Crowley’s portrayal of New York in the 1950s. The film is named after Brooklyn and illustrates the era's city as a place that can be both isolating and the best representation of home.

      Despite its relatively modest budget, **Brooklyn** pays close attention to all the right details. Most of us might not fully grasp what New York City is truly like, but we all wish it resembles the New York depicted in **Brooklyn**.

      It's the quintessential love triangle.

      **Brooklyn** tells the story of a love triangle, but it's the kind of story that uses its characters to symbolize larger themes. After arriving in America, Eilis falls for Tony, a Brooklyn-born Italian American who helps her acclimate to city life and eventually proposes to her. When she visits home, she meets Jim, a man who reminds her of the pleasures of Ireland and offers her a sense of belonging she previously lacked there.

      **Brooklyn** doesn’t create a lot of suspense over who Eilis will ultimately end up with, but the decision between Jim and Tony represents more than just a choice between two men; it’s a choice between two homes and two different ways of living. Eilis’s final decision reflects everything we know about her transformation, which is why it feels so inevitable.
