Young Irish immigrant, Alan Cooke contemplates the great metropolis New York City, and the very meaning of home itself. A vivid moving and poetic portrayal of life in contemporary New York featuring a host of celebrities, native New Yorkers and immigrants via candid interviews, Liam Neeson, Mike Myers, Susan Sarandon, Alfred Molina, Rosie Perez, Colin Quinn, Pete Hamill, Frank and Malachy McCourt, Fran Lebowitz, David Amram, Elaine Kaufman, Drew Nieporent, Armand DiMele, Vinny Vella and Woody Allen (cable and TV version only). Written by
Dawn Scibilia and Alan Cooke
Under "Cast (In Order of Appearance)" in the final credits, Rosie Perez is mistakenly identified as "Rorry Perez." She is, however, spelled correctly in the "Special Thanks" section. See more »
Home The Movie is a MUST see !! I love this movie ! I couldn't wait to get a DVD copy so that I could go home, cook up corned beef and cabbage,share both the movie and meal with my entire family, and CELEBRATE our Irish heritage . :) The movie caused me to think of my ancestors and the struggles they had in order to come to this country. They saw a future for their descendants, and NYC was their place to start the journey "home ". There is a much bigger appreciation in my heart to those who where brave enough and wise enough to make that decision. Home The Movie is a tug on anyones heart no matter what part of this giant globe your family has immigrated from. Watch the movie and then celebrate YOUR heritage !!! Hats off to Dawn Scibilia and Allen Cooke !!!!!
