This can definitely be the official USCIS movie. Work? Help you find good; study? Free your tuition; love? Men post backwards; nostalgia? Sorry, my home is in the United States~Brooklyn~. I absolutely do not believe that the girl would "resolutely" go back to the poor Italian plumber if the mean aunt hadn't exposed Alice. The film has very little depiction of cruel reality (at least for most people), and is full of girlish dreams-overcoming nostalgia for work, hard work for study, and love, she did nothing, even the necessary sourness None, just made a seemingly difficult decision.

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.

Eilis: I'd forgotten what this town is like. What were you planning to do, Miss Kelly? Keep me away from Jim? Stop me from going back to America? Perhaps you didn't even know. Perhaps it was enough for you to know that you could ruin me. My name is Eilis Fiorello.
