Watch The Last Days For Free

Strong and Moving!

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.

This is the perfect companion to Schindler's list. Produced by Spielberg, this documentary tells about five Hungarian survivors of the death camps of Hungary and Auschwitz. There are also interviews with a Nazi doctor who used to perform experiments on Jewish children, like trying to change the color of their eyes. The scenes are unforgettable. Many new atrocities of the Nazis are brought to light. There are many tear inducing scenes in the documentary. This got the Academy Award for the best documentary of 1998. I highly recommend this for those who are eager to know more about the Holocaust and for those who want to see the extent of evil which man inflicts on another man. 4 out of 5 for this spellbinder.

I can't imagine ever forgetting the story of this film's survivor who held on to the diamonds her mother had sewn into her dress hem.What an incredible story of determination and will to survive.If I ever feel discouraged, scared, or worried, all I have to do is remember this unassuming woman's story.Like Steven Spielberg's other work involving the Holocaust, this film is a gift to humanity -- a work to help us remember to oppose evil and never, ever give up.The other survivors who appeared were moving as well -- the beautiful, articulate artist in Houston (who went on to give birth to a retarded daughter) and the late Rep. Tom Lantos. It's hard to imagine how personal accounts of one of mankind's darkest chapters could be delivered more powerfully! The filmmakers' enabling these survivors to revisit Auschwitz and their Hungarian hometowns was a stirring element.My only problem with this film was the almost total lack of information on how these survivors got through the day-to-day of their ordeals. Clearly, each was resilient. But practically nothing is said about what exactly kept each of them going under such abysmal circumstances.Still, this is a magnificently compelling work.

The Last Days is a documentary from 1998 directed by James Moll and Steven Spielberg produced it.The movie tells about five Hungarian Jews who share their most painful memories.These wonderful people are Renee Firestone, Irene Zisblatt, Bill Basch, Alice Lok Cahana and Tom Lantos.They had to go to concentration camp, they had to suffer all because they were Jewish.This is a very touching movie and you can't help crying while you're watching it.Only the one with the coldest heart could.This year it will be 60 years when the war ended, when there was no Hitler and the sun became to shine.But it still didn't shine bright.I don't think it ever will.

I've seen a lot of documentaries about Holocaust (few dozen of them - thanks to the excellent Minuteman library network of greater Boston). This documentary is one of the best I've ever seen. I am still searching for an answer how such a horrible crime could be committed by a man.Watching this documentary is a very emotional and unforgettable experience.
