Suggested Films about...
Hester Street 1975
Jewish immigrants in New York face challenges and the pressures to Americanize. Carol Kane is excellent in this B/W film.
The Emigrants 1972
Liv Ullman and Max Von Sydow come to America from Sweden. Could be a hard film to locate.
Ragtime
1981 James Cagney’s last film weaves real and fictional characters together in a tapestry of America in 1906. Lust, murder prejudice and greed- just another year in American history!
