Quando Hitler robo el conejo rosa

Watch it only if you have nothing other to do.

It is slow paced but a beautiful movie set before Hitler took the power in Nazi Germany.

A true story about a Jewish family who escaped from their origin home. Nice places are shown here.

The children and the main actors made a very good job. Perhaps too long. 6/10.

Completely based on true events, this movie shows how a jewish family was able to just barely escape germany, thereby preventing being locked up in a concentration camp and facing a certain death.

What makes this movie very relevant is that it shows the way the jewish family was received by people in the places and countries they fled to. To think that it was only the nazi germans that discriminated and blamed the jewish people during the 1930's, is shown to be a wrong assumption.

It is very interesting to see this story being told by what the youngest daughter of the family experieced. I think the title is a good example of what decisions this girl had to take and how she personally saw those decisions: e.g. "why can't I take my favorite pluche rabbit?".

Considering that it is not easy to produce a movie that has as a small child in the main role, I think the result is excellent. The cinematography, vehicles, clothing and sets were all of such high quality that you really deem yourself in the 1930's.

Concluding, I think this movie deserves a score of 8.1/10, thereby easily making an 8-star IMDb rating. If you decide to watch this movie, I also recommend that you search the internet on what happened with the family after the war ended: I guarantee that you will surprised and/or impressed by all the achievements.

Excellently played by Riva Krymalowski (Anna) and beautifully shot. The story is moving and told in a straightforward manner, mostly from Anna's perspective (otherwise there could have been more room for the development of the main characters).

Certain things may seem hard to imagine nowadays. Not just because of certain technological advances, but just what happened and what was done to people. Humans are capeable of ruthless and horrific things ... and while you are not going to be a witness to the holocaust itself, the dread, the agony, the fear ... all can be felt here. You feel for the family - their journey is quite something to behold.

If Germans are able to do one thing right, it is dramas about the third Reich, warnings of sorts. Even if some still may not be entirely convinced of the despicable things that happened back then, the movies can only try to educate us as much as possible (outside of history lessons that is).

Very well acted, very well told and a true story (even if there are some things that may have been heightend for story telling purposes - overall it does feel like it does the situation justice though).

"When Hitler stole pink Rabbit"

This is a lovely movie! Beautifully filmed, excellent story and acting. It's 8/10 in anyone's money, but it's 9/10 in mine.

This German film (English subtitles) is the TRUE story of the early years of Judith Kerr OBE, and how she and her Jewish family escaped from Berlin & Germany 1933-1935.

One reviwer here has rather foolishly said that the story is set just before Hitler takes power. No, it isn't. The whole reason why the Jewish family is running is BECAUSE Hitler has just come to power. If he hadn't come to power, they wouldn't have to run. I guess some people just don't pay attention... Another reviewer complains that the dialogue is: "not what you would hear in the 1930s", and gives the film a low rating. Nonsense! How does that reviewer know how people spoke in 1933? Do they have a time machine? Put bluntly, anyone giving "When Hitler stole Pink Rabbit" less than 7 must have been watching a different one to the charming film I saw.

The costumes, vehicles and interiors all all pure 1930s. Young Riva Krymalowski as Anna Kemper, and Marinus Hohmann as Max Kemper are first class.

This is a moving and excellent film. Don't miss it just because other reviewers have said silly things about it.
