when i visit auschwitz in 1990 and i remember that my companion and i sit down outside the gate and once we be do and and cry for about an hour before catch the train back to krakow . when i saw the first few minute of this film and and those horrible building and the pile of ash that be still there when i visit and it bring everything back and but tell a story i do not know much about . it make sense that the nazi would have use jew to dispose of other jew . they be totally expendable and and it very logical and and perhaps that be why it be so horrible . the dialog be a bit mamet like and yes and and you definitely know that you be watch something that be once a play and base on the somewhat mannered dialog and direction . and yet and it a great story and well act . who be culpable . what would you do to survive . if you know you be probably go to die and wouldn not you want to enjoy your last few week eat and drink well . it one of the very few film on the holocaust i have see that doesn not draw everything in black and white . what some of these men do to their fellow jew be despicable and yet who amongst u can say that if he be hungry and desperate and he might not do the same . definite food for thought . and warn . i wouldn not eat during this movie . you may experience some queasiness .
