She and her younger sister Ariel (played by Bolger's real life sister Emma) have recently lost their baby brother Frankie to a brain tumour and the family is struggling to cope. Navigating the hardships of their new life in New York City, and a growing friendship with an African man called Mateo (Hounsou) who lives in their building, help the family to grow and move past the tragedy.

In America / int_23f1384a	comment	Babies Make Everything Better: Played with. Sarah getting pregnant and bringing a new baby into the family does help them get over Frankie, but their issues are resolved through other means, and Johnny does point out the difficulties another child would bring to the family.

In America / int_4783acfa	comment	Bait the Dog: A bum appears numerous times in the film, acting friendly to Johnny and offering him food stamps at one point. In the third act he tries to mug him.

In America / int_b9d334b2	comment	Aerith and Bob: An Irish family with names such as Johnny, Sarah, Christy, Frankie and...Ariel? We can only assume the parents were massive fans of The Little Mermaid (1989).

In America / int_f19e8a55	type	Bad "Bad Acting"
In America / int_f19e8a55	comment	Bad "Bad Acting": Averted. Johnny has trouble getting roles because he can longer express proper emotions in his acting. We don't see too much of him in action, outside of brief snippets of auditions but, as they're for theatre, obviously different skills are required.
