This is a magnificent film, from an incredible screen play/novel, amazingly directed with scenes & human touching emotion and kindness w/lessons to... earn through life so moving I am thrilled to know it will stay with me for days. I do not understand why it is not getting early acclaim as it a blockbuster of indefinable purportions. Yup, .. - ya gotta go see it, - you'll be a better person for it. 10 STARS. This will receive many many Oscar nominations. Full Review

A subtly rich performance by Dillane and a fine supporting cast make this Holocaust drama worth seeing, even if you don't think you can bear another one.Full Review
