...was one of the best movies I have seen in years. It is about a group of Jews who escaped and hid in the forest for the 3 year occupation of the Nazis in Poland. I did not feel intellectually insulted ONE TIME and was not disgusted at any time with trashy, low brow behavior. I didn't recognize any of the actors. Four Jewish brothers must escape Nazi-occupied Poland in this WWII drama directed by Edward Zwick, based on a true story. After fleeing to a remote forest, the brothers join the ranks of the Russian resistance fighters, who took up arms to help set other Jews free from the Nazi regime of imprisonment, torture, and murder. Daniel Craig, Liev Schreiber, and Jamie Bell headline the drama, with Alexa Davalos and Tomas Arana set to co-star. - Cammila Albertson, All Movie Guide

Thank you for the recommendation. There's not one popular movie in twenty that I care to waste my time on, so it's helpful to hear entertainment advice from someone with common sense!

Thanks for the vote of confidence, KIR! I haven't been to the movies in a long, long time so I can't recommend any.
BigK really like that movie he spoke about and, although he is a foreigner, he does have some common sense! I can't find the movie here yet.

I didn't recognize any of the actors. That's cause you live in a big [censored] cave in Texarse. :RollieEyes: Daniel Craig is best known as the latest and greatest face of James Bond 007, womanizer extraordinaire. Aside from that he has had and continues to have a very active career in filmdom. ETA: Aye Are Ess Eee got sensored. Wow. :RollieEyes:

CC, no, these Jews managed to evade the concentration camps during the Nazi occupation by hiding out in the forest.
