My Rating : 3/5
When people say that Twitter is a revolution, I always wondered how it can be a revolution. But after watching this movie, I realise that.
I got to know about this movie from a tweet from Rajeev Masand. He had given a good review about this movie.
The movie was superb, though it is in the lines of Life is Beautiful.
Young Bruno lives a wealthy lifestyle in prewar Germany along with his mother, elder sister, and SS Commandant father. The family relocates to the countryside where his father is assigned to take command a prison camp. A few days later, Bruno befriends another youth, strangely dressed in striped pajamas, named Shmuel who lives behind an electrified fence. Bruno will soon find out that he is not permitted to befriend his new friend as he is a Jew, and that the neighboring yard is actually a prison camp for Jews awaiting extermination.
It is a deeply moving and--it must be said--disturbing movie. But it is a remarkable story, told with masterly intelligence and grace.
