Editorial Reviews
J. Hoberman, Village Voice
"My Mother's Courage shows that blue skies and sunshine can be as devastating as night and fog."
Stanley Kaufmann, New Republic
"A film about the Holocaust that, after the few memorable films on the subject and the flood of lesser ones, needs to be seen."
Customer Reviews
Great Movie!!
This is a great movie about a mother's escape from the Auschwitz concentration camp.It's highly recommended and a must see!!!
Another lame attempt
Lame attempt and lazy storywriting of yet another "triumph" film.
Subject: Concentration camp. Gee, THATS original.
Theres so many fictional movies made about this subject that people dont have any idea what DID or DIDNT happen there. No wonder kids have no clue about history. Moronic lazy writers put in sensationalist events for the sole purpose of making money, and to damn anything real about history.
Imagine a film with all the lies and changes and biases about facts in the movie "JFK", and multiply by twelve, but instead making it fiction...and you will have this movie.
WWII Movie
Poorly directed Movie. Boring, at times I didn't know if I was looking at comedy, or a dark comedy, or why this film was searching for a reason to be serious.
