  • One of the best films I have ever seen

    I saw this film the other day on UK TV and, for some reason, never got around to buying the DVD. This was a film that, at the back of my mind, I always wanted to watch. It is based on real life and what actually happened during WW2 and, I am sure, to a large extent is accurate.

    However, and to a certain extent, the timing is not quite accurate because The Pianist actually purloined an overcoat from a German Officer much earlier than was portrayed in the film. He must have done, otherwise he would have lost the will to live.

    An extremely good film and I cannot imagine how anybody could better this portrayal of the Jewish plight during WW2.

  • At least there was a coherent plot

    Not to give too much away in case you haven't seen the film, I did feel a little sick at one point. However, there was a beginning, a middle and an ending and, there is a small chance that this could really happen to you. Based on actual happenings during the World Wars, (where does anybody get their ideas from), I thought that this was quite a good horror film.

    At one point, I had to laugh, (my youngest son has been accepted by two universities to study Medicine - he wants to become a Surgeon), and so I found this film quite entertaining. Quite frankly, I wouldn't mind watching this film again at a later date.
