The acting is so good in this film, that even if you never watch subtitles, I suggest you try this. The interrogation and trial are from actual records, not dialog written for a movie. Intense & inspiring!

Ein großes spiel, Marc Rothemund. Überzeugende Darsteller besonders Julia Jentsch die, die Sophie Scholl überzeugend spielt, und André Hennicke der den „Roland Freisler" darstellt. Der Film erzählt uns die Letzen Tage von Sophie Scholl. Das Drehbuch (Fred Breinersdorfer) basiert auf die Vernehmungsprotokolle und Zeugenaussagen der Angehörigen.

Good idea, but poorly acted - especially by Julia Jentsch herself, which looks hesitant and inexpressive through the whole movie.
