COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Excellent movie submitted by joist-67 on November 22, 2022, 2:09pm Usually a movie fails to rise to the level of expression of the original book, but in this case the screenplay by Moss Hart truly captures the full sense and meaning of Laura Z. Hobson's thoughts and words. A very moving story sensitively portrayed that examines the dynamics of antisemitism in its more subtle and almost invisible forms. Highly recommend, and also recommend the book.
