For this assigned blog I watched the movie "The Boy In The Striped Pajamas". This movie made me cry a lot at the end. It is about a little boy, Bruno, who's father is a Commander at a concentration camp. In the movie Bruno is forced to move away from his friends to a house that is closer to the camp his dad is in command of, and the only friend he has is one that he meets while exploring the grounds of his new home. The little boy he meets is a jew in the concentration camp named Shmuel. Bruno gives Shmuel food when he visits him but doesn't know what Shmuel is going through in the concentration camp at all. The part of the movie that got to me was when they go looking for Shmuel's father. It was so sad, because Bruno didn't know what he was getting himself into.
I really like this movie and I think it portrays what the jews actually went through in the camps. I also think it shows how some people coped with the jews being in camps. The movie gives people a feel of how people who were up close and personal, (Bruno's family) to what was going on, felt.
