Rating: - A powerful and inspirational story
This is a extremely powerful and absorbing movie that is recommended to anyone who has ever had a hunger to achieve something worthy.
It is rightfully called a masterpiece by many.
The characters are very believable and interesting. One can feel the absolute frustration in the main character. He is an individual with obvious flaws which make him ever so much human and not some 2 dimensional hero. Along his struggle-filled journey, he meets a kaleidoscope of other complex characters, ...

This movie is totally engrossing for about three hours
Well known moviemaker ELia Kazan made this film as a tribute to about his uncle Stavros Topouzoglou and his struggles to come to America in the late 19th century .The thing l liked best about the film was how Kazan did not in- volve politics in the movie l am not an expert in Greek or Turkish history so bear with me .l know that Greeks were not happy about living in Turkey being a minority esp when they had a country to go back to [Greece].The ...

Rating: - Amazing film
A cinematic "splendor" at the hands of the master Elia Kazan. The Odyssey of an immigrant who survives the barbarities of Muslim Turks and makes it to America in spite of all the odds.

Rating: - Masterpiece
I first seen this extraordinary movie while I was behind the Iron Curtain, holding no hope to be a free man...a Stavros like millions others.

Forgive my obvious bias, do yourself a favor and see this movie.
