"In America"

Length: 107 minutes
MPAA Rating: PG-13 for some sexuality, drug references, brief violence and language.

Samantha Morton and Djimon Hounsou got Oscar nominations for their performances in this drama, which was on many 2003 top ten lists. Set in the early 21st century, the story follows a young Irish family—husband, wife (Morton), and two girls—that immigrates to New York after the death of the family's only boy. When poverty forces them to live in a tenement with junkies, they become friends with a terminally ill neighbor (Hounsou).
