Beth A I loved this movie! It allows us to see the Holocaust through the eyes of a child. Also as an individual with the name of Schindler in my background, I like the fact that this movie reveals both sides. It was an outstanding documentary! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Gerardo T great movie inspiring Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/20/22 Full Review Wolfgang G Lauf Junge lauf ist eine deutsch-polnisch-französische Koproduktion. Die Geschichte basiert auf dem Roman von Uri Orlev, sie ist eine wahre Begebenheit aus dem Leben von Yoram Fridman. Pepe Danquart (Regie) erzählt die Geschichte in schönen und harten Bildern, den Überlebenskampf eines jüdischen Jungen der auf der Flucht ist (gespielt von Andrzej Tkacz und Kamil Tkacz). Der Soundtrack zum Film stammt von Stéphane Moucha. Der Film ist absolut sehenswert und trägt den Titel "besonders wertvoll". Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/01/24 Full Review Audience Member A father and son escape from the Warsaw ghetto in 1940s Poland, as Germany carries out its evil pogrom against the Jews. Seen from the perspective of a nine year old boy, as he moves from one location to another to save his life, this film is an essential watch. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Serge L True stories make the best films, when the film is well done. Pretty good work here. Incredible adventure where the boy avoided death in many ways and often, barely. The acting was great, the germans properly terrifying and psychopatic. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 10/31/17 Full Review Audience Member Absolutely heartbreaking film. I was surprised to see at the end that it was based on a true story. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Read all reviews
