After seeing this, I'm "Hungary" for more Hungarian movies

"The Revolt of Job" tells the story of a childless Jewish couple in WWII-era Hungary who adopt a Hungarian boy. They raise him with their values and traditions. Unfortunately, the Nazis eventually come and round up all Jewish families in the village. The final scene shows the boy watching as his parents are hauled away like cattle.

I don't know whether or not Hitler's Third Reich was the most evil act in history; there have been numerous genocides throughout the centuries. Maybe the Third Reich is different to the extent that Europe, at least, has had such a hard time getting over it. Some of the greatest movies ("The Great Dictator" and "Schindler's List", for example) have dealt with the Third Reich. "The Revolt of Job" certainly belongs in that number. After watching this movie, you will never be able to forget what people went through in Hungary. It is truly a masterpiece.

Trivia
The story is based on the life experience of the director as a little boy.

Goofs
When the film opens within the first few seconds after the credits have finished there are boys swimming mostly nude in the pool/bath. The boys are jumping in and out and some even do flips in to the fool. A child of about 10 does a flip but he does so just outside the pool edge and nearly if not slightly hits his head on the pool edge. Another boy about 11 appears to step out of character for a second to ask if he is OK. Apparently he is and the boys continue to play and there doesn't seem to be any type of stoppage in the film. This is a very close call which could have been very tragic.
