Plot: The story of five prisoners in the Auschwitz concentration camp as told through the memoirs of Dr. Miklos Nyiszil, a Hungarian Jew chosen by Josef Mengele to be the head pathologist at Auschwitz.
"The Grey Zone" ties "Sophie's Choice" as the most depressing Holocaust film I have yet to see. Unlike "Schindler's List," "The Devil's Arithmetic," or "The Pianist" there is no relatively happy ending for the characters involved. For this reason, the moral dilemmas the characters find themselves in seem all the more gritty and real. Although the dialogue can be glaringly Hollywood at times, the storyline stays true to its real life counterpart and delivers a genuine feeling of hopelessness.
factual, says my husband. i found it heartbreaking, upsetting, and very well done. excellent acting by a great cast. rivals schindler's list, easily.
By using mostly focused/zoom in shots and the gray colored tone, Grey Zone created such a claustrophobic feel which made this film even more depressing than some other Holocaust films. The film stayed quiet till the end, the characters were very engaging, and the ending was so shocking but so peaceful, made us felt completely hopeless - which achieved the purpose of the film.
A look at the lifes of the prisoners in a concentration camp and the lead up to a up raising against the german. Well made and very grim but a well worth watch and a brush up history lesson.
When I started watching this movie, I knew I had seen it before, but looking at all my list, I can't find it. But Have seen it before guess it was in the theather. A great movie, showing what things were like inside the prision camps during WWII, Horroable, I can only hope that Americans today would still feel the same as they did in WWII, but somehow I doubt we would. Things are just so different. Worth th watch,
