Sickening - Sophie Scholl review by JD
The content of this film will live with you for days. The mentality / socio-psychology of Germans living under the Hitler regimen defies understanding. Does it say more about the frailty of the human mind than the sickening levels to which the Nazi's stooped? What ever you decide you will not be able to forget that this was reality for millions of people less than 70 years ago.
The only criticism is that Sophie is too perfect; Faultless answers flow effortlessly and absolute courage shines in the face of the death penalty.
