A Masterpiece

I have been obsessed with David Strathairn since I first saw him in The Return of the Seacaucus Seven in 1980. I have also seen as many films, both fictional and documentaries, about the Holocaust as I could. I have read several books and watched lectures on this lowest point of humankind. This piece, Remember This, exploded inside me.

Strathairn has never been better. He gave a very physical performance for anyone, particularly a man in his 70's. His use of a variety of accents, particularly speaking as a Polish national, was impeccable.

I have never heard of Jan Karski before. Thanks to this remarkable presentation I shall never forget him. It was fitting that I saw this on PBS's Great Performances. Thanks to the partnership between Strathairn and Karski it truly was a great performance.
