Forgotten Ellis Island is the first film to be produced about the lost history of the Ellis Island Immigrant Hospital. As Pres. Obama begins his term and the nation once again wrestles with the issue of immigration, Forgotten Ellis Island is a powerful tribute to the best and the worst of America's dealings with its new citizens-to-be. PBS will be nationally broadcasting the film, which is narrated by Elliott Gould, on Monday, 2/2 at 10pm, ET. (check local PBS listings)

I'd love to visit Ellis Island one of these days. I'd particularly like to visit the south end, the hospital. I hope that they're able to clean up the place and make it safe for visitors to visit.
