30 Dec Black Book
Black Book, a Dutch WWII movie
(2006) This Dutch film based on real events revolves around what happened to the Jews when the Germans occupied Holland. A young girl survives the murder of her family by the Gestapo and becomes a spy in the Resistance.
I quickly stopped noticing the subtitles. Our heroine found herself in so many precarious situations it’s hard to imagine she could have survived … confirming what it took for a Jew to live through the nightmare of Nazi occupation.
I loved that it was filmed in the Netherlands, using many historic spots.
