Last Days
The gruesome truth about the Holocaust is that it was very cinematic.
There must be hundreds of documentaries about this lowest point in human
affairs. This is one of the best views to examine that evil. It encapsulates
the entire horror by following five survivors from Hungary in the
last year (the last days) of the “final solution.” Because of the desperation
of the Nazis in their final months these Hungarian camps were the most
horrendous. The survivors tell their personal stories while they return
to their Hungarian hometowns and death camps 50 years later. It’s the
factual counterpart to Schindler’s List, all the more dramatic because this
documentary was produced by Steven Spielberg.
