Truth & Treason
I wanted to write about this movie, but I happened to see it the same weekend as the No Kings protests. I don’t know if it is still in theaters, but I wanted to post about it anyway. It is based on a true story that occurred during World War II in Germany. It is about a young man, I cannot say boy because he was much more mature than that, who decided to stand up and speak the truth. It is not easy to stand against a government that has no shame or integrity. It is not easy to stand when you run the risk of being eliminated for having the audacity to speak against a selfish, narcissistic, authoritarian leader who does not care about his country’s people and treats them like his serfs.

Roger Ebert gave it a thumbs up, but just barely.
It's getting better reviews from a public not quite so concerned with how or whether it checkboxes some critic's movie theories. 88% favorable at Rotten Tomatoes, 96% favorable at Fandango, grade of "A" (A+ to F scale) at CinemaScope.
It is still playing in theaters. (I checked local theater listings--found it in three.) With those kinds of favorability numbers it'll probably be getting screen time for awhile yet.
Wonderful. My friend had wanted to go see the new Julia Robert's movie, After the Hunt, but it wasn't playing in the theater we wanted to go to, which was by our chosen lunch spot. So I picked this one.
We were going to try to catch the Julia Robert's movie later, but it is fading fast. Rotten Tomatoes gave it a splat, 38%.
