For fragments of photos on walls, windows, on floor, for comentary, for story itself , about a boy rejected to live in Unired States and hiding for not be discovered, for Robert de Niro as a sort of wittness and as the perfect option as only living presence in the empty, ruined building, for hommage to people who, at Ellis Island, were at beginning of new life , for the last comentary, it is an admirable poem.
Hommage to hopes, sacrifices, expectations, it has as basic tool to impress the lectures of viewer or the stories of family . Or his experience.
A remember, in same measure.
And a story reminding , in some meassure, Alessandro Baricco and Giuseppe Tornatore The Legend of 1900.
