- Citazioni
Georges: I'm not going to bring them more instability just because you suddenly feel it may get dangerous.
Georges: You are a mile away from nazi Germany where an extremely popular leader is preparing the most powerful army in the history of Europe to conquering a neighboring country while he blames all possible evil on the Jews.
- Curiosità sui creditiEpilogue: "For his contribution to the French resistance, Marcel Marceau made 'Grand Officier de la Légion d'Honneur' and was awarded the National Order of Merit in France. He is recognized as the most important Mime of all time. Marcelle's father, Charles Mangel, was deported to the Auschwitz Concentration Camp, where he was killed in 1945. After the war, Nazi hunters Beate and Serge Klarsfeld found Klaus Barbie hiding in Bolivia. He was extradited to France, where he was convicted of crimes against humanity. He died in prison in 1991. The Jewish Resistance groups of France saved ten thousand children during World War II. The Nazis advocated killing children of 'dangerous groups' as part of their plan to 'purify the Aryan race.' They killed 1.5 million children, including tens of thousands of Romani children, children with physical and mental disabilities...and over a million Jewish children. This film is dedicated to them. We will never forget."
- ConnessioniReferences Suss l'ebreo (1940)
Jesse Eisenberg delivers a decent performance if you can look past the shoddy French accent, but Clémence Poésy and Matthias Schweighöfer are the true stars here, with the nazi brutality of the latter made all the more shocking when contrasted with the concern he shows towards his own child.
A few reviews comment on the 'formulaic' nature of this film - whilst from an entertainment perspective this might be a valid critique, I personally believe it is vital that these stories are told and retold, and highlighting the bravery of an individual is a valuable way to do so.
