17 very Irish tweets about Brooklyn last night

It was the big Christmas movie on RTÉ and we were all invested.

NO MATTER WHAT it is, it’s guaranteed that half the nation will be watching whatever movie RTÉ One plays around 9.30pm on Christmas Day.

Last night, Brooklyn was the chosen one – and people had so many thoughts.

1. Like, can we all agree to shut up about Saoirse’s accent for once

2. It was genius stereotyped scheduling by RTÉ

3. We had possible theories about why she was on the boat to New York in the first place

That SNL sketch coming back to haunt her forever.

4. Would it truly be Christmas without an awkward sex scene to watch with your parents?

The Brooklyn one was over *very* quickly… but that might have made it more awkward somehow?

5. Nanas around Ireland have had enough

6. But sure look, they got married so it was OK?

7. Eilis rolling back into Wexford from New York was everything

8. Wexford came across more like D4

9. We now have a very plausible Christmas movie conspiracy theory

10. Brooklyn really does a good job at capturing the Irish emigrant experience

11. ie it makes you cry no matter how many times you’ve seen it

12. If you think she should have stayed with Jim, please leave immediately

13. It would have been a *bad* call

14. Domhnall Gleeson is sound and all but Jim is not the best option for Eilis, SURELY

15. That letter she sent was cold

Easier than saying it face to face.

16. Here’s a deleted scene showing what she wrote in the letter

17. And finally… you can’t argue with this logic

Was it ever in doubt?

Eilis and Tony forever.
