Episode 124 - Remember (An Arbitrary Selection of Films About the Holocaust)

This was originally recorded as part of one of our regular movie roundups, but we thought it would be more appropriate to release it as its own thing because of the gravity of the subject matter in comparison to what else we talked about. In this short episode, Yair and Jack talk about a fairly arbitrary selection of films about the Holocaust that they recently watched; Jack reviews Atom Egoyan's 2015 thriller Remember, and Paul Verhoeven's 2006 WWII movie Black Book, whilst Yair talks about a couple of East German films -Frank Beyer's Jakob the Liar (1975) and Der Rat der Götter (The Council of the Gods), which Kurt Maetzig directed in 1950 - and the 1985 Soviet war drama Come And See.
