Title: Has anyone seen the movie "Defiance"?
Post by: ~Hanna~ on March 15, 2010, 08:53:43 AM
A TRUE STORY of 3 Jewish brothers who escaped concentration camps in Poland by going to the woods, they ended up taking care of alot of people, who came for their help.

A very good, touching movie, by the way, I highly recommend watching it.

Yes I loved it.

At times I thought they were too forgiving of the nazis but for the most part they were portrayed as heroic and willing to fight.  I loved the movie.  There were Jews like them at that time.   Hollywood and the convenient mainstream narrative ignores them and portrays us all as helpless pacifist sheep, but it is not completely true.  There were many Jews who joined up with the partisan units in the forests to fight the nazis.  Not that I blame any of the victims (those who fit the mainstream narrative) or resent their behavior chas veshalom, I do not judge them, but it is good when a full picture is painted and we are more than *only victims.

Very good movie, very good. A tear jerker in a few places, also.

It is a very good movie. The battles were very realistic as well as the evil opportunistic Brutuses.

We should always remember, that this kind of "neighbours" who will betray you and deliver you for a small profit, exist even today. Sad but true.

An emotional film, no doubt.  Inspiring.

I saw it, it was pretty good. The James Bond guy was in it, wasn't he?
