The term “drama” is pretty broad. Aren’t most Westerns dramas? Science fiction?
Thrillers? If we take the term “drama” in the most narrow sense—a film that takes
itself seriously but isn’t included in one of these other genres—then my choice
is not easy, but one film must be mentioned: In America.
It is the story of an
Irish family having moved to New York in order to make a better life. It
certainly is not a film about immigration, but about family and tragedy and
marriage and such wonderful, wonderful characters. You can laugh and cry in
every scene, at the same time.
