Another way of how the Nazis influenced many lives

[The Protective Horserider]

Don't you think it's a good thing that the movie shows us and therewith reminds us, once again of how the Nazis influenced the lives of many people?

They destroyed a lot of things in many different ways. A lot of people got killed, for no good reason. But the Nazis also ruined the (love) lives of people. People like Suzei, who have to flee to stay alive and who have to leave things/people behind which they'd rather not.

I think it's a good thing that the movie shows us that. We must never forget what the Nazis did and we must prevent things like that from happening again.

You're right That is a great aspect and I love the fact that it was left very forward in the film.. it was in fact one of the main events that changed the course of the plotline entirely.

It gives the fiction all the more reality and people can better make relations with it. Surely it would have been a shame to leave that bit out.

[The Protective Horserider]

Exactly!

It made everything even more dramatic. And to know that these things really happened.

And what's even worse, to know that these things still happen to some people. For example to people who live in countries where there is war..

What this movie does is it really personalizes what the Nazis did to people. The movie doesn't just cover the effects on a grand scale (lumping groups together) but picks two unfortunate lovers and brings us into their world, making what happens to them happen to us and I found that very powerful. Good thread idea, Obsessed!

Tnx!

I totally agree with you. It sure does make things personal. You feel really affected by the events.
