I hard pass. Yes, the Holocaust really happened. Yes, the Nazis were savages and murderers. Yes, over 6 million Jews were murdered by the Nazis but let's not forget the 15-31 millions other folks that the Nazis also murdered: intellectuals, artists, gypsies, Homosexuals, handicapped, elderly aged, the ills, Russian Prisoners Of Wars, forced laborers, camp inmates, political prisoners, Slavs, Serbs, Czechs, Poles, Italians, French, Ukrainians. Yet we don't see any movies being made about those murders, every other week or month is another movie about a hero or heroine who risked their lives to fight the Nazis and to save the Jews. We also don't see any movies made about the Japanese who murdered over 25 million Chinese, Mongolians, Manchurians, Koreans, Indo Chinese (now Vietnam), Burmese, Philippinos and others during their conquest of Asia beginning in 1931 which is really when World War 2 begin, not 1939. |
Do you want a complete list of good movies about resistance? There is a bunch of them! To begin with: L'Armée des Ombres. |
@Guest-3813: since you said its FoS, that tells me you don't know anything about World War 2. The Jews are not the only one who suffered during World War 2. Almost 100 million died during World War 2 and only 20-25 million of those were battle casualties, the rest were civilians. |
100 million minus 25 million battle casualties = 75 million civilian deaths. 75 millions minus 6 million Jews deaths, that leaves 69 million civilians deaths in Europe and Asia. That is a conservative number too. So not only are Jews not the only ones who suffered, their 6 million is a small % of 75 million |
total civilian deaths. Less than 8%. Yet after almost 80 years since World War 2 ended on September 2nd, 1945, they are the only ones who are still crying and constantly making movies about their sufferings, |
Well, the Japanese in Asia are like the Germans in Europe. Everyone around them hates them for what they did just a few years ago. Plenty of movies every year and weekly documentaries on public TV to remind everybody. |
When you say 'we don't see' you mean 'you don't see' I see a lot of Russian & Chinese World War 2 movies that have nothing to do with Jews. |
How about the 2 Million German POWs that Eisenhower let starve to death after the war? Read "Other Losses"........take off your rose coloured glasses. Two sides to everything. Americans are just as guilty or more so. Carpet Bombing, Fire Bombing , Nukes, Napalm what a hypocrite. Lets see a movie about that..... |
Nobody is stopping anyone from making those movies about gorillion other casualities, quit yapping |
After the war, the official stat for number of Jews murdered was 1 million. The number "6 million" didn't appear until the 60s. The Nazis may have been true evil, but they kept detailed records of everything that they did, and if they said they killed a million, like it or not, the number is almost assuredly accurate. |
At TheLastMotel; This is true, it wasn't until Adolf Eichmann's trial this number was propagated. When he said "with me here are 6 million accusers" At the time Eichmann was living in Argentina and was drugged, kidnapped, and snuck onto a commercial flight back to Israel. |
History not really being my strength, I watched the movie and read the Library of Congress summary (https://lccn[dot]loc[dot]gov/n91113227) on Irene Gut Opdyke. All fascinating and heartwarming stuff... of course the Nazis did not only persecute one religious faction, and their atrocities were many, and fuelled by irrational fear and hatred. jaxe points that out and gets hammered for it 🙄 As an audience who only vote with our pockets, or as pirates who often don't even do that, we get little say in the movies that are made. Of course, all nations are guilty of atrocities in their own way; Russia, the United States, Israel, Japan, the United Kingdom, Canada, to name but a handful have all committed their share. Movie production reflects those episodes or not. If you want a movie that reflects the story you want to tell... then make your own movie. It seems to me that the trouble frequently comes when we think of movies -- most often dramatized for the sake of commercial appeal -- as an accurate historical record; they're not, and can't be. As a standalone story of bravery in the face of inhuman cruelty, this is a strong tale, with a good cast and good production values, nothing more than that, but well worth watching for that alone. Many thanks to GalaxyRG for the quality share |
LiberalLesbo, first country you mention speaking of atrocities is Russia. Funny Did Russia slaughter, enslave native population of an entire continent? Or bombed cities with napalm and then lie it was an atomic bombs? Did Russia ever do genocide like Nazi German or Japan? Or like Jews according to Bible?.. |
@Guest-7903 - Yes. Russia genocided its own people which is even worse than genociding a perceived enemy nation. They murdered way more people in total under communism than anyone else. They also enslaved & tortured WAY more people in ACTUAL death camps WAY worse than the workcamps of the Germans! |
@Guest-7903. How many millions of Russians did Stalin have put to death? |
Don't think Stalin cared To him 'one death is a tragedy; a million deaths is a statistic' |
Thanks for shearing this I hear it quite a heartwarming story. Knowing the current climate of the TG comment section in regard to WW-2 content. Thought I'd make a legitimate comment before we "Let the hate flow",... |
I've heard of shearing sheep but shearing movies?! More immature liberal holier-than-thou dribble "Look at me, look at me, look at me! My comment is legitimate! If you disagree with my world view you are WRONG!" |
We are doomed to repeat history if we do not learn about committed genocides and other Holocausts that happened around the same time and movies have NOT been made about them; King Leopold II of Belgium killed 10-13 million Congolese from 1885-1908 (known as the silent Holocaust) Talaat Pasha and the Young Turks killed approximately 1.5 million Armenians from 1915-1920 (known as the Armenian Genocide/Holocaust) Bolshevik Filipp Goloshchyokin killed 1.75 million Kazakh from 1930-1933 (known as the Kazakh genocide) Bolshevik Lazar Kaganovich killed 3-5 million Ukrainians from 1932-1933 (known as the Holodomor) Bolshevik Genrikh Yagoda killed 7-10 million Christians from 1934-1938 (known as the Christian Holocaust) Japan's Emperor Hirohito killed 14-20 million Chinese from 1937-1945 (known as the Chinese Holocaust) |
Fascism has failed every single time it has ever been tried. |
Now here's a classic example of somebody who's completely ignorant of the facts using a word they don't actually know the meaning of - something all too common here. Fact: The German's in WWII were NOT "fascists", they were socialists; National Socialists to be exact. The Italians under Mussolini were fascists. |
Fun fact : Socialists can be fascists too. "In the future, fascists will come, and they will call themselves 'anti-fascists'" - Huey Long in 1935 |
@TheLastMotel - It's a spell. Can you spell "sword"? I can, but I move the "s" to the end. Now I have a more powerful weapon! Many of us know the game & we are impervious |
Fascism, Nazis, killed between 9.4m to 16.4m people, Commies between 86.5m to 122m, Communism is way worse throughout history, leftism is now trying to take us back down the Socialist/Commie route, even lefty fools proudly display the Hammer & Sickle, imagine if it was Swastikas being displayed on campuses. |
Guest-6039 That's misleading. They labeled themselves socialist to appeal to the workers & distinguish themselves from other parties. It's not that socialism, or any other ism, can't be an illiberal authoritarian movement, but the Nazi's were far-right fascists. Cf. "The Coming of the Third Reich" by Richard J. Evans |
@FurrowedBrow - You read "his story" & believed it. Good for you! I've read many, many "his stories" throughout my lifetime viewing things from ALL sides. Reading "his stories" from a supposed enemy can be the most enlightening & truly educational because they don't just reinforce preconceived beliefs & feelings |
@FurrowedBrow - Dictionaries are annually rewritten to suit political agendas so much of what many words have ALWAYS really meant has been omitted & reworded to give a whole new definition. Now they even add in that fascism is associated with "racism" stoking the feels of a liberally programmed generation! What a joke |
Actually it ruled the world for most of civilization. It was called "Royalty." |
>Guest-6039 "Not true fascism", every single time lmao Fascism, national socialism and every single authoritarian right wing ideology has failed EVERY single time it has EVER been tried |
A-10 V-9 ... Thanks for the upload. A wonderful film for the enlightened few. Definitely not for RBWN crowd as seen in the comments. |
"...the enlightened few." Really? You usually make it very clear in your comments that you rate yourself pretty highly above the majority. That kind of elitist belief leads to things like... oh let's see... genocide. Well done & thanks for enlightening us all! |
Its a movie about what one person experienced... told by someone who thought it needed to be made. If you think another movie needs to be made then convince someone and make it. This is a great story that i really enjoyed. To make negative comments on a movie based upon events totally not related to it would be the classic definition of propaganda. If you want to debate any other unrelated content or your own anger issues please do so in the appropriate hate speech forum you usually use. |
Because anyone who disagrees with you has anger issues & uses "hate speech". Got it. Just another entitled liberal who believes they're always right |
But their usual hate speech forum is right here. They get away with thinly veiled dogwhistle comments in favor of racism, homophobia, or other assorted bigotries, and when reported we're told to "not abuse the reporting system"— so these "free thinker" right wing conspiracy theorists with an axe to grind run rampant. |
@HashMaster9K - While the left wing coincidence theorists with an axe to grind don't? |
lmao they are working ovetime now with all the releases to gain support for their tribes war |
Hollywood likes to remind us of a certain past genocide, how about the ongoing one being made into a movie? |
it's impossible! Western propaganda tools will not be used against the interests of Western capitalists! |
I agree, perhaps a documentary about how Muslims in China are being put in camps and having genocide committed upon them, with interviews of Hypocritical brainwashed College kids that are at “free Palestine” events with their iPhones in hand. |
iPhones Haven't those college kids dumped their Google Android phones now that they know that Google is in bed with Israel Thought not |
@Guest-3252 - "it's impossible! jewish propaganda tools will not be used against the interests of jewish capitalists!" There I corrected it for you. You're welcome! |
"..1931 which is really when World War 2 begin, not 1939." Jaxe, you are usually pretty funny. You really ought to avoid trying to talk out of your arse, however. |
1931 is when Japan invaded Manchuria and sparked off World War 2. Educate yourself: look up Mukden Incident. World War 2 didn't began in September 1st, 1939. That's what the west led by Great Britain wants you to believe. |
The Japanese invasion of Manchuria set off a major international crisis. It was the result of Japanese imperialism that had started with its modernization nearly a century earlier. The invasion ultimately led to the Second Sino-Japanese War and helped to increase tensions before before World War II. |
For all u knobs who think this movie was made in response to the conflict in gaza...to "distract" from it... Get a life!...you want to live in the conspiracy echo chamber of your skull, then fine... But don't think that thinking people couldn't have easily determined that this movie was filmed in 2022, screened at TIFF last year...nuttin to do with Israel actions or Gaza... |
Oh no! Another nutty coincidence theorist invading the comments! These crazy creeps are everywhere! |
You're asking the typical TGx commenter to use their brain, think critically, and have empathy. That is a VERY tall ask. |
If this is as half as good as the Ministry Of Ungentlemanly Conduct it has to be worth a watch |
