This film showed some of the reasons behind emigration from Ireland to America in the late 1800s. It was quite a gruelling watch at times and not for the faint-hearted but very worthwhile. It was hard going to begin with scenes in Boston based on boxing and the poverty of new immigrants heart wrenching, It felt every much a man's film but the romantic story line was bitter sweet and the feisty, strong willed heroine felt bang up to date. The changes in status, lifestyle and developing love grew gradually into compelling viewing. It was a film that made you think long after it was finished.

A film which captivates from the outset. The characters are engaging and a serious subject is cleverly made light and amusing in parts. All the actors play great parts.
