That's a couple of hours of my life I will never get back - The Rose of Auschwitz review by MD
A young Jewish woman muses about faith and god. Zzz... watched about half of the film waiting for something to happen.

Also called 'A Rose in WInter', so-so religious biopic. - The Rose of Auschwitz review by PV
I ummed and ahhed about whether to give this 2 stars or 3.
I was irritated by the quasi-religious angle and there is no doubt the devout will enjoy this more than I did - it seems to have been financed by Christian groups too. The angelic light which just happened to shine on a folder etc - that sort of thing annoys me. The religious will love it no doubt. I do not believe in saints so have no investment in the significance of making someone a saint. I think it;s all a bit silly tbh. But I know how seriously some Catholics take it.
It was OK but a lot left out. I wanted to know more of what happened to the characters - Michael Praeger the journalist (played by a Brit actor) who investigates, for example. I can find nothing online, and do not know how true this story is.
This is overlong too - should be one and a half hours max. Some extraneous scenes with people who knew Edith clog up the flow of the plot.
So a slight film. 2 or 3 stars. Just squeaked a 3 from me.
