Few historic facts

Rating: Null/10 (19 January 2003)

Simply, this is a fantastic movie. I have just come back from the cinema and I am deeply moved. I can't imagine anyone would be not.
The movie is very historically accurate and is of a great value, especially for American audience that so often learns for Hollywood films that are usually far from the truth. This film is.
My only complaint would be that it pictures Polish homes at the time of the German occupation as being wealthy, where people having abundance of food, etc. It was not like that. Of course, probably you cannot compare it to the situation in the ghetto (well, not until the time of the Warsaw uprising in the August of 1944), but most Poles in Warsaw (and elsewhere) suffered hunger, humiliation and terror as well. They also had to sell their belongings (like furniture) in order to be able to survive.
