Miscast

The film itself is pretty formulaic, neither really bad nor really good. My biggest problem was Eisenberg as a total miscast for young Marcel Marceau. As a professional mime artist, I might be twice as critical here. But his stone face, stiff moves and rapid-fire talking are pretty much the opposite of real Marceau. So I simply couldn't believe his role. So in the end, there is nothing special about this film, apart introducing Marceau's WW2 experiences to an audience that might either never have heard of him or just know him as the world famous mime that he became later.

A story that needs telling, but perhaps not this way

Marceau's life story deserves to be told. His body of work is a precious gift. Sadly, this is a journeyman's effort from Jon Jakubowicz; the script lacks nuance; and, the film falls well short of good cinema. Jesse Eisenberg does a fair job of his dramatic role but he is no mime, and here, that's a shame. Bella Ramsey stands out as Elizabeth. Not worth going out on a cold night to see this plodding tale.

Do not let the negative reviews deter you from watching this movie

This movie plucks at the heart strings. I will have to do some digging on how historically accurate this film was but I feel that Eisenberg did a fantastic job. Don't let the negative reviews deter you from this. The plot was well thought out and all of the cast portrayed their characters very well. I rented this movie from amazon for $7 and I am going to buy the dvd to add to my collection l.

Had me in tears

Fantastic Holocaust film. I doubt many people know the true life connection this great stage actor had to saving children during WW2.

Reasonable

I think you get an unfair assessment after reading reviews before watching movies. The movie was strong, it was very emotional, The endurance of the characters is more than inspiring, it's compelling and pulling. I won't speak about the acting, because the actors are simply actors. The event of holding composure during the Cat and Mouse game of Death is horrifying. Let alone for children, so is the movie showing the real FRIGHT of children? I would assume some was left out. But the movie does capture you and you journey with it through the monstrosity ill of war and intent of extinction. So the main characters for me are the children. As important as Marcel story is "A CHILD IS ESCAPING DEATH." The hope of survival is terrifying.

Zitate
Georges: I'm not going to bring them more instability just because you suddenly feel it may get dangerous.
Georges: You are a mile away from nazi Germany where an extremely popular leader is preparing the most powerful army in the history of Europe to conquering a neighboring country while he blames all possible evil on the Jews.

Crazy Credits
Epilogue: "For his contribution to the French resistance, Marcel Marceau made 'Grand Officier de la Légion d'Honneur' and was awarded the National Order of Merit in France. He is recognized as the most important Mime of all time. Marcelle's father, Charles Mangel, was deported to the Auschwitz Concentration Camp, where he was killed in 1945. After the war, Nazi hunters Beate and Serge Klarsfeld found Klaus Barbie hiding in Bolivia. He was extradited to France, where he was convicted of crimes against humanity. He died in prison in 1991. The Jewish Resistance groups of France saved ten thousand children during World War II. The Nazis advocated killing children of 'dangerous groups' as part of their plan to 'purify the Aryan race.' They killed 1.5 million children, including tens of thousands of Romani children, children with physical and mental disabilities...and over a million Jewish children. This film is dedicated to them. We will never forget."
