From the little bit i saw of the movie, i really enjoyed it. Smole was my favorite character, so i was sad to hear he died. I was sad that the elderly doctor who peeled potatos and helped the boy with ther hurt knee, was killed. i thought the movie had a grim, sad, but inspirational swing to it.
The movie shows the childrens experience a tad but not to the full extent. It shows smole working and stuff as well as getting punished but somethings are unreal, like that the guard son could just walk up to the fence and talk to smole. It also barely shows Smoles everyday life.
I wasn't a big fan of the family because they were nazis but i liked their kid. The dad was a concentration camp officer and the mom was just ignorant. I dont feel sorry for them because the father killed jews left and right so now he knows how it feels to have a child taken away from him like many others in the holocaust. i didnt see enough of the movie to tell you how id write the ending.
I don't think this is the only movie id reccomend for the holocaust. Its a great film and very touching as well as gives some good takes on the holocaust, but i dont think it's historically accurate enough to be the one and only movie to go off of.
