Every now & then I'll see a movie that leaves an impression.. Sometimes it's a funny movie, sometimes scary, sometimes a thinker.. Well, last night I watched this movie w/Nick and it definitely left an impression.. I still keep thinking about it! A must see:
The Boy in the Striped Pajamas
Young Bruno lives a wealthy lifestyle in Pre-war Germany along with his mother, elder sister, and army Commandant father. The family re-locate to the countryside where his father is assigned to commandeer a prison camp. A few days later, Bruno befriends another youth, strangely dressed in striped pajamas, named Shmuel who lives behind an electrified fence. Bruno will soon find out that he is not permitted to befriend his new friend as he is a Jew, and that the neighboring yard is actually a prison camp for Jews awaiting extermination.
Wow it sounds like a great movie, but I usually cry a lot at movies like this, and there has been enough crying lately with this trip to India. Have you been reading these blogs? WOW!
