Ratings and reviews

Very boring. Did not watch the whole thing. We chose it because some reviews said no profanity or cursing or violence which was not true. I'm so glad we didn't let our grandchildren sit down and watch it with us. It is definitely not something I would choose for my family.

My grandparents immigrated from Poland. This is one of my mother's and I favorite movies . It echoes my family's story. This movie truly shows how the American dream works! It would behoove the current White House administration to watch this movie.

One of my all-time favorites. This is the story of so many immigrants that moved to USA at beginning of 20th century. Even if this is not your story, it will help you understand the dynamics of the American lifestyle of so many. And, outstanding movie in all respects, to boot! SEE THIS!!
