‘America, America’
Elia Kazan’s exhilarating 1963 film from his own novel celebrating the turn-of-the-century immigrant experience of his own uncle. A stirring, splendidly textured period re-creation (which won art director Gene Callahan an Oscar). Greek actor Stathis Giallelis, left, pictured with Lou Antonio stars (Bravo Tuesday at 8 p.m.)
