Films about the fate of Jews wore out during the
course of time, not bringing anything new to the genre in past 25 years. As for
the serious flicks on this subject, those dealing with the question of revenge
against the Nazis were even more rarer, so it is quite expected for a average
viewer to miss out a hidden gem, „Remember”.
The thing that attracts the most when it comes to
the crew and script of Atom Egoyan's latest movie is the overall sense of
unpretentiousness. Slow rhythm, additionally slowed down by phenomenal
Christopher Plummer and his character's repetitive dementia will soon form a
very original story about finding the notorious Auschwitz block fuhrer, Otto
Valisch. This unusual adventure will make a full circle around four potential
Nazis who settled down in USA, culminating with one of those memorable twists
at the very end that make „Remember” the most original Jew/Nazi flick in
decades.
„Remember” is a great small movie, with some
serious acting and a memorable script and you should definitely watch it.
