Going back to this movie, this movie does have many shortcomings, but it is sincere and moving, especially the grasp of the theme and those small details. And the excellent performances of all the actors, both primary and secondary, are really amazing.
For the safety of her brother, Sarah locked him in the cupboard, and when she escaped and returned home to open the cupboard door after all the hard work, her life was actually doomed. Correspondingly, it is the family tragedy of a journalist who is obsessed with the truth.
The two parts before and after the film feel slightly different, and the sense of history in the first half is absent in the American and Italian filming. And the modern heroine finally has some doubts about the family's approach.
Tell me a few impressive details. When several reporters discussed and decided on this topic, when the male reporter said that the Nazis would leave all kinds of photos and records, the modern woman said this after a meal. Made by the French. When Sarah and her parents went to the place of detention, the parents' rebuke and Sarah's eyes followed. Sarah's choice of warm tones when she was in the lake with another girl when she first escaped. The modern heroine's father-in-law recalled the state of Sarah in the car the day she came back and the eyes of the little boy and his father when they saw the cupboard. Thank you for the perfect picture of the straw and the tree in the letter, and Sarah by the sea. The modern-day heroine's squeamishness when she's about to meet an old man in Brooklyn. Then there is the change of the two when the father and daughter communicate at the end of the film.
In fact, I always feel that when Sarah's parents accused Sarah in hysteria, this tragedy has gone beyond the reflection of the times and wars and moved towards human nature.
This is a movie worth seeing.
