If Brooklyn hit the spot, these will too

Common ground: love triangle

Contemplative and epic in the same breath
The difference: Critics were much harder on this one

Both land romance and tenderness at once

Contemplative drama in both cases

History built on scale, twice over
The difference: Leans harder into animation than Brooklyn does

Both are built on the same subject: brooklyn, new york city
The difference: None of the scale Brooklyn is built on

One thread runs through both: marriage

The same preoccupation in both: marriage

Romantic romance, and it commits to that

Drama with a pulse of tenderness, in both cases

Both keep coming back to the same thing: community

One thread runs through both: love triangle
