ELLIS ISLAND -Part 1 of 2- 1984 TV MINI-SERIES (Richard Burton's final on screen role).

[@robertd.carver6240]

What a wonderful slice of turn-of-the-last-century life! Great cast, complex, intertwining storylines and the costumes are gorgeous!

[@carieyounginsurance]

My ancestor came thru Ellis island! Took a pic of his name- Christian Hochstetler…my great grandma was a Hochstetler. It’s so cool to study history and the past

We MUST be certain our names are in the Book of Life! St John 3:16 ❤ Revelation 20:15!

My grandma came through Ellis Island, age 13, with her sister, 15, from a village in Romania; they traveled alone. (I'm sure they had a shirttail relative to stay with, but never knew the whole story.) She worked in a sweatshop, then married and had six kids. My mother and her sister were models in NYC before working in defense plants in WWII and then married servicemen. I had a passel of cousins from all those aunts and uncles. We actually found their immigration papers.

[@willaknotts1298]

Gosh these were amazingly strong people who were forced to find new homes far away from there own. Hard to believe. I wish a written story could come out of that. The evil in this world is horrible. I hope your relatives knew and know peace. It looks like another round of corrupt govt is here now. ❤

[@booboo485]

Sounds like such a sweet story, but I'm sure being so young they had a lot of trails and tribulations!

[@DEFENDERofHONOR]

The real SLAV(e)S of fabricated American history that were set up to come here and steal jobs and American culture and identity. How beneficial was it for your people to become “free Americans” under the encoded status as (white) after working as indentured servants In another word (Salves) then the original free white indigenous became “black” what a successful heist/highjack. Wait til this becomes a common known history.

[@FreedomSpirit7]

I was watching this because I saw Richard Burton's name. Then I saw a young Liam Neeson. Then a host full of wondeful Actors and Actresses. Ben Vereen and Melba Moore Americans back in that day leaving because of Jim Crow many talented Black Americans left for Europe. France definitely was the spot.

In Ellis Island I confess that I came after the Burton's name.. Well I was lucky to find this marvellous TV series, thanks

Excellent first part !! 👍 I really appreciate these old movies now far more than at the time, probably because they don’t make ‘em like they used to 🤣 now for part 2 !!!

[@shawnbegay4966]

Wow, very impactful for someone like me, whose ancestors did not come through Ellis Island, but over the Bering Strait Land Bridge many thousands of years ago. I decided to look up Ellis Island related subjects after constantly hearing about the immigration situation that is taking place on our southern border in Arizona.

[@DD-wx3ho]

I’m a combo Bering Straight, MayFlower and Ellis Island. I have cousins whose z grandmother came from Mexico on the back of a burro! My, aren’t so many of us all a hodge podge!

[@heatherfulmore3412]

My great-grandfather had to pass through Ellis Island when he went to New York.

[@heatherfulmore3412]

@@DD-wx3ho ,the ship that came from the BWI was the Korona.

[@kermitthefrog3632]

That is not an “immigration situation” on the southern border and the world is a very different place.

[@VIRGONOMICS]

My family has our Great-grandparents name on the wall there - Kamińskie , Piotr & Konstantia - it was amazing to go there and do a chalk rubbing to keep . One of the main reasons why I love our flag z

[@pammf9391]

Don’t know if you will ever read this- but I just spent almost all day binge watching this series ( both parts)- missed watching it back in the eighties ( small child & working). -was reading Burton’s bio and this series was mentioned - really enjoyed it.. too bad more present day Americans don’t watch this and remember that somewhere in their family were immigrants

[@diannedurfee7099]

Mine came here in 1880, then took a wagon to Kansas and became successful farmers.

[@rockbottomstudioofny9230]

I usually get around to reading replies to my uploads once or twice a year lol. I’m posting this from a different account until KZbin help me remember my login info for this channel. Anyway, I’m glad you enjoyed it. I was 8 when it premiered on CBS so I didn’t remember it at all. It was my introduction to Richard Burton via his narration on The War Of The Worlds album back in 1990 when I first heard it that lead to me to start collecting films, movie posters, books, etc. I remember the first biography I read was Melvyn Bragg’s ‘Richard Burton, A Life’ that was published just 2 years prior in 1988. If you haven’t read this one yet I highly recommend it. I think it’s the best of all the biographies though his brother wrote one as well that was very good.

1:26:40 & 2:35:00 This was Richard Burton's last role. He just completed 1984 in May and this was filmed in July. He renewed Aug. 5th, 1984.

Some great dialogue, too.

[@theesperanzacompromisebyja9044]

Immaculate adaptation of the 1983 novel Ellis Island penned by Fred Mustard Stewart. Alternative title could have been The Golden Door. It offers loving context to the Emma Lazarus poem on the Statue of Liberty "Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame, With conquering limbs astride from land to land; Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame. "Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!" cries she With silent lips. "Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"

[@stacysatterfield2154]

My maternal grandpa and his siblings were first generation born in NYC, their parents and other family members escaped from White Russia(Ukraine) because of Czar and pogroms. Both my.paternal grandparents and their family members escaped from Poland, Russia because of the Czar and pogroms in the late 1800's to Ellis Island

[@allisongaines3330]

My grandparents came through Ellis island as well from Russia and Poland to escape from pogroms and hatred!

That's so cool! To think they actually met 9 years later and got married a year after that

[@janisewellington-ut5jy]

Broke up two marriages.

[@davidhollingsworth1723]

My two grandmothers inlaw came through Ellis Island; one from what is now Slovakia, in 1908 probably Austria - Hungary. One was from Lithuania - don't know an awful about her. Some of what I see is very similar to wha is going on today. The immigrants we get now are for the most part from other parts of the World but all the same------

[@kermitthefrog3632]

Not all the same.

I've seen this film in the fragments in the early 90-s in my childhood when my family had bought our first video-player. Unfortunately the sound is too weak.

[@sdeee3842]

Kate and Richard Burton father and daughter 🤗

[@rockbottomstudioofny9230]

That was the reason Burton agreed to appear in the movie, so he could work with Kate. They were together in only one other production of Alice in Wonderland from 1983. I think it’s on KZbin.

[@agerard6297]

1:41:27 THE CAT IN THE CABARY somehow timewarped to being seen in the early 10s.

[@inakalimba9428]

Thanks for posting a movie that depicts the background of immigrants before arriving in a country that was as divided as the ones they left. 2 of the main characters were criminals. One an accomplice to a crime & the other a murderer. This shows individuals who believed they had the right to do what ever they wanted. So it seems when ppl with their type of thinking met with the descendants of colonial puritizst ,conflict was bond to occur. Also, the rich had their doubt about the immigrants which still lingers today. When was this movie produced -2019?

I do t have an axe to grind or anything. I’m just being honest. I think the Closed Captioning in this Episode is the most inaccurate I’ve ever encountered. I tested it out in various minute markers in the video, but it was so bad I had to turn the captioning off. Bug distraction, and the saddest part is the very large variety of European accents, so the captions would have been so helpful.

[@davidkeenan5642]

Forgive me, I really enjoyed this miniseries, but. But few actors can master an Irish accent, and the ladies who portrayed the sisters didn't. Milo O'Shea and Liam Neeson are Irish, and the lovely actresses tried. Maybe to American ears they sounded Irish, but to my ears they grated. Any Irish agree with me? Sure an authentic Irish accent is gentle, despite the many brogues.

my grandparents, Irish [paternal] and Polish [maternal] passed through Ellis Island. At the beginnings of the 20th Century. my Polish grandfather fought in WWI as a soldier for the USA.

Just got to thinking; The late Will Rogers was approached from a lady bragging about her ancestors arriving on the Mayflower. will Rogers answered her with "Ancestors were there to meet them". By the way the Mayflower was not exactly a luxury liner with shuffleboard and entertainment. They even landed in the wrong place. They wanted to go to Virginia. Might even say there is some anti immigration among some Native Americans when they say " the Pilgrims landed on Plymouth Rock, too bad Plymouth Rock didn't land on the Pilgrims".

America and europe have something in common. North and south. That is also the difference. The norths have always in mind how to use the south to their benefit. Then we ve got international languages as music and painting theatre dancing or poetry. In a word culture. That bounds to keep in tact the celtics the russ the greeks and romans always contemporary yet coming from different eras throughout time. Ethics contrary to fanatism though is always at stake.
