The first movie of 2016 was five stars. Not worth the months of anticipation. This is the Flushing story of the Chinese in New York. Irish and Italian descendants are the largest ethnic groups in New York. The hero and heroine are all immigrants, one was born here and the other migrated here. The story is not limited to two people, but also two families.

I like three things: (1) the delicate description and flowing emotions in the first half; (2) the change of roles in the two scenes before and after the boat; (3) the monologue in the last few minutes. Even if I told myself that the situation after returning home and the timing of the appearance of the second male lead drove the female lead's second heart, I still couldn't like this part, and I always felt that she was just scared by the witch when she came back.

Frankie Fiorello: So, first of all, I should say that we don't like Irish people.
[General cries of outrage around the table]
Frankie Fiorello: We don't! That is a well known fact! A big gang of Irish beat Maurizio up and he had to have stitches. And because the cops round here are Irish, nobody did anything about it.
Maurizio: There are probably two sides to it. I might have said something I shouldn't, I can't remember now. Anyway, they probably weren't all Irish.
Frankie Fiorello: They just had red hair and big legs.

Eilis: [instructing new immigrant] You have to think like an American. You'll feel so homesick that you'll want to die, and there's nothing you can do about it apart from endure it. But you will, and it won't kill you. And one day the sun will come out - you might not even notice straight away, it'll be that faint. And then you'll catch yourself thinking about something or someone who has no connection with the past. Someone who's only yours. And you'll realize... that this is where your life is.
