Review of The Book Thief (2013) by Gordon D — 01 Nov 2015
Geoffrey Rush is excellent as usual and the 13 year old heroine fills the part skillfully, including the accent. It's a family friendly movie about the horrors of WWII, so while it doesn't sugar coat the truth, it also dispenses with the graphic violence that has become almost stock fare.
It made me reconsider what could reasonably be expected of the German populace who did not hate the Jews but feared they would be taken next.
