while undeniably not for the shallow or those who expect their movie to lay every detail out for them amid plenty of action and the garden of the finzi continis ( a parable on a latter day eden of doomed innocence . ) remain after more than a quarter century one of the most perfect reflection of the gradual process by which the holocaust could have happen in a europe which believe itself civilize . the tragic love story allow u into the garden . only our own action or blind ignorance can allow u out . not a lot need be add to the perceptive comment already examine the detail of this beautiful and moving film but american and especially those of my fellow republican who be able to objectively look at their own country and leader and should seriously examine the politician who use fear and nebulous enemy to gain and hold power in the light of this film . the realization be inescapable that the world of the finzi continis be not that far remove from our own . a question of degree not of kind . the garden be still seductively attractive and the country around it still relatively free and but will we follow the course the finzi continis take or will we come actively out of our garden while there be time .
