BROOKLYN

The film opens December 11 in Halifax, Ottawa,
Winnipeg, Calgary, Edmonton and Victoria,

Many scenes in that film were shot in Montreal; I recognized some of the locations in that trailer, even though they flashed by quite quickly.
Really? Next time I must read the filming location of Brooklyn. Very good movie.
