I was wondering what immigration-themed movies there were out there. I recently came across this one called The Visitor; the preview doesn't do the movie justice, imo:

I stumbled upon this film by accident, and I have to say that Richard Jenkins was absolutely amazing in it. I'm glad he was nominated by the Academy ( I still think that Sean Penn deserved the Oscar).

I think HBO or Showtime is showing it now. That's where I saw it again.

The Terminal.

Although it is not exactly dealing with immigration, it shows how messed up the system in this country is.

I'm sorry, but I found that to be a really dumb movie...
