Yes, Tony got struck with the “thunderbolt” looking at the comely Eilis, just like how Michael Corleone got struck by the “thunderbolt” when he first saw Appolonia on that country path in Sicily, the other “Emerald isle” in the Mediterranean.
what i love abt this scene, which feels real, is the nonverbal communication happening. the dad noticing how she is eating the spaghetti and communicates that with a glance to the wife who asks the question. or how the mom looks at tony and communicating how impressed she is by the night school comment. ❤️❤️
Ellis is such a beautiful character. She's so calm, no quiet, no shy, just calm and smart. I can perfectly imagine her as a sweet and wise mother. And Tony would be the funny and protective dad.
It would have been cool to have seen what Eilis and Tony’s children would have looked like. Growing up in the greater NYC area, I knew many Irish/Italian kids; we referred to them as “half Gaelic/half Garlic,” of which I’m one myself.
Post WW2, during the 1950's, Italian boys were attracted to Irish girls. For the sons of immigrants, who wanted their kids to be more American than Italian, Irish girls were perfect. They were English speaking, Catholic and fair skinned. Perfect for boys who wanted that all-American family.
Cause it's a stupid movie that's why. Italians and Irish are not snobs. They're very ghetto "bro"-saying people with English accents completely UNLIKE this movie. Nuyoricans, Italians, Irish are the ones who act ghetto "bro"-saying are non-white. Have the Latin (in the case of Nuyoricans and Italians) English accents or, in the case of the Irish, the English accent Cameron had in "Gangs of New York". A moronic movie with no sense whatsoever. Spaniards act like the family in this stupid movie. Swedes, Danes, Jews, Russians and I'm talking Spanish Catholics, Protestants, Eastern Orthodox, and Jews.
One thing I love about this story is, it's not a Cinderella tale of a poor countrygirl coming to the big city to marry the rich prince. Eilis works her way up in the world, studying and going places. And the man she marries is from a similar background. They share the experience of being immigrants, the hardships and hopes of migrant life.
Where do real life Eilis Laceys exist, and if they do, will one of them go out with a nice Indian fellow who isn't even Catholic (but attended Catholic boys school run by Jesuit priests)? :)
Me too. I just saw it now in 2017, I bought the dvd a while ago , but have not watched until last week and I really love this film . Especially the chemistry between Eilias and Tony.
I love this movie!!! So well acted from top to bottom.....and one of the best romances of all time. Saoirse & Emory have so much acting chemistry it's nuts.
That lil kid is very Spaniard, Swedish, Danish, Jewish, Russian, jackass. That's not an Italian English accent. That's an English accent of one of those ethnicities. Italians sound like Manny Ribiera from "Scarface" when they speak English. Latin, non-white. So do Nuyoricans It's those ethnicity I mentioned in the top that are whites.
@@bluebuffy5 So when I said Italian English accent I meant how Italians in accent sound when speaking English.That is so not their accent. That's how Spaniards, along with Swedes, Danes, Jews, Russians, Belgians, Czechs, Prussians sound, in accent, when speaking English
+Autumn Clay While Frankie was great, I have to say the same thing about EVERYBODY in this movie. After watching "Brooklyn" for the first time (and I have watched it LOTS of times on DVD since then) I made the comment that I have never seen a movie more perfectly cast - every single one of them is superb. Usually there are standouts (and Ms. Ronan certainly does here), and some who seem miscast, or "throw-away" as minor characters, or weak in their character portrayal, but everybody was so believable and perfect for the role they played in this movie. I'm still thinking the Oscars have a lot of politics involved because Saoirse Ronan deserved the award for best actress. Perhaps some thought the role was Ms. Ronan being herself. Not true. Her experiences in real life at the time definitely helped her portrayal of Ellis Lacey, but she was just acting superbly. She even changed her Irish accent to reflect the area her character was from and not the way she speaks natively. Anyway, that's just my two cents' worth.
I agree the scene where Tony brings Eilis to meet his family is terrific. You could see how much Mrs. Fiorello approved of Eilis and she was probably delighted that her son had met such a lovely young woman. I got a kick when Mr. Fiorello asked Eilis if she ate a lot of Irish stew in Ireland. I’m surprised he didn’t ask Eilis if she and her family didn’t eat a lot of corned beef and cabbage also. And, didn’t Mr. Fiorello look a forty-something version of the beloved Uncle Junior on “The Sopranos”?
This is romance that feels so real; not cringey fake af like the majority of stuff that comes out. If anyone knows any book recommendations of this sort id appreciate it so much, thanks
I agree. When I first saw television ads for “Brooklyn,” I wanted to see it. However, family responsibilities prevented me from seeing the film in a theater. When I saw it several years later on dvd, I was extremely impressed and moved by the film. I thought Saoirse Ronan was incredibly talented and, obviously, very beautiful. I thought this was the first time I had seen Ms. Ronan in a film, but I later found out that she had portrayed the scheming, little girl, Briony, in the excellent film, “Atonement.” She was outstanding in that early film role in her acting career and was nominated for an Academy Award as a very young actress. I hope she wins a well-deserved Oscar for Best Actress sometime in the near future.
All the comments here seem to be by women (girls, even?). No guys liked this movie other than me? I loved Saoirse Ronan in this-- she is beautiful, intelligent, thoughtful, kind...and that accent!! wow! If any Irish gal like her wants to date me, an Indian immigrant in America, I'm available. :) haha I'm in Philly, not far from Brooklyn! :)
I think it's probably because at first glance the movie would have appealed to a more female demographic? Or at least how the film was advertised. Without knowing the book and looking at the film in its simplest form, Brooklyn can be seen as a love story and love story's tend to not draw in as large of a male audience (generally). At least that's the only reason I can think of.
Okay...Italians DO NOT use spoons to twirl Pasta. I've only ever seen this in movies. It's literally a coming of age thing when you can twirl Pasta with one hand.
Caesar, Did the Italian women in your family put sugar in their spaghetti sauce? My Italian grandmother used to put sugar in the sauce/gravy to take some of the bitterness out of the sauce. You see Richard Castellano (as capo Pete Clemenza) pouring sugar into the sauce he’s cooking for Sonny Corleone and his guys in “The Godfather.”
@@Caesar316 The Italians also make delicious stuffing to go with the turkey at Thanksgiving. I remember my grandmother used sweet sausage, seasonings, and onions in with the stuffing mix. It was the highlight of the Thanksgiving meal.
Can you imagine if the Fiorellos’ young cousin, Paulie “Walnuts” Gaultieri, just happened to stop by when Eilis was there for dinner? I’ll bet that even at age 12 (?), Paulie had those distinctive “wings” on both sides of his pre-teen head.
I laughed so much at this scene, it was funny and light hearted and perfectly in the style of the movie and of the relationship between Tony and Eilis. Loved the movie!
It’s too bad we didn’t see more of the Fiorello family in the film. I would have liked to have seen the Fiorellos interacting with Mrs. Kehoe, Father Flood, the kindly priest and the other Irish girls residing at Mrs. Kehoe’s house. Maybe those pretty Irish girls would have taken an interest in Tony’s other brothers?
JHowesitgoing123 wow. Must be an American thing tho in Canada during the second world war Italian immigrants where rounded up and jailed under suspicion.
+white wolf during the fifties the Irish had basically completed integration into the United States. The Italians were not fully integrated during the fifties, which resulted in feuds. If you watch the movie On the Waterfront for example, a movie about an Irish-American ex-boxer that became a dockworker, its really illuminating about Irish culture during the fifties.
A Is Here awesome thanks for the history lesson, helps explain why Tony's family are so bitter.. I'm going to have to buy this waterfront DVD now I love Irish history.
Did anybody else notice they are eating from bowls of spaghetti at the beginning, but at the end of this scene (the full scene in the movie) they're eating from a plate of meat and vegetables? What's that about? Continuity?
Bill Roberts was there a time skip? What actual Italians do is eat the meatballs separate. Spaghetti separate. Spaghetti meatball combo on a plate is american version, not the old ways. Sono italiano
+leon sc Thanks for the additional information. That makes sense, but it didn't look like meatballs on their plate with veggies in the last bit of that scene. It looked more like a pork chop or something similar. The time span from the bowls of spaghetti to the part where it changes to plates with meat and vegetables is somewhat unclear. It seems like a short time, but there is no serving the new dish, or clue about how much time has lapsed from the beginning of the scene to the end. That's why I thought there might be a continuity error, but surely the director and cast wouldn't let something like that go unnoticed, especially in the editing process. Anyway, thanks for the comment. It helps me understand how that meal possibly worked during the scene.
@@billroberts7881 there's a meat course after the pasta course. My friend who married an Italian guy tells of meeting his family for the first time and filling up on lasagna thinking that was dinner, then having to force down roast beef so as not to offend his grandmother.

Times were different back then. Hardworking working-class folks who didn’t have much but had a sort of warmth to them. This sort of people built our world for us. I almost wished I lived back then but then I remembered there also were diseases, pollution etc.
Weil fuck, here I am again, watching one scene from Brooklyn after the other, because I love this movie so much but I can’t be bothered to watch all of it again
Why do they all eat spaghetti with a spoon like if they were "special" kids? It's quite ridiculous. Who wrote this film, the same guy who translated "Boh" into English in Spider-Man Homecoming?
Because that's the way the Irish girl was told how Italians eat spaghetti and she was trying to be "authentic." Notice how they gave her a weird look and asked her why she eats her spaghetti like that.

No, you got it all wrong. Look again. Only Saoirse's character (Eilis) used a spoon since she went to a _finishing_ _school_ IIRC. The mother was curios why Eilis ate like that.
Tony is so in love with her. He gazes into her with this spark of joy, his smile just says it all.

The way the kid playing Frankie moves his hands when he speaks, so Italian! Lol

Talking with the hands is actually an expressive trait of many New Yorkers, New Englanders, etc.. & not just Italians.

Tony's family really made a huge effort to help Tony by welcoming Eilish.
They did especially the father asking is that all you eat is Irish stew,
I'm Irish and I live like 2 minuets away from enniscorthy and one day I want an adventure like eilis and marry a guy like tony❤️
Where's a Tony when you need one? *sigh*
I love the little kid. He’s 8 going on 18 literally. 😂😂😂😂😂
