DramaWar

In April 1940, the armies of Nazi Germany invaded Denmark. The Danish government promised peaceful cooperation on the condition that Denmark's Jews remained free. The Nazis agreed. In October 1943, the agreement was broken... This is the true and magnificent saga of Denmark's valorous actions to save Danish Jews from Nazi extermination at peril of death!

Interesting to see a story told from the Jewish Danish perspective of WW2 plus the debut of a young Jane Seymour in her first major film role but this unfortunately must be one of the most boring war drama's ever put to screen. Static camera movement, a cast speaking predominantly in proper English (not a hint of a Danish accent), and a story where everything goes almost perfectly for the protagonists and there's not much here to get excited about. Even the score is fairly droll. One of the main characters is a violin maker and you would think that would feature some way in the music but no. With so many amazing WW2 films out there, this one's hard to recommend. Avoid (unless you're Danish or a huge Jane Seymour fan).
