Last Night I took my 13 year old Great Nephew to see 'Defiance', which just came out last Friday. This movie is based on a true story about the Bielski Brothers, who organized the Jewish resistance in the forests of "White Russia" in 1941, shortly after the Nazis invaded. I'm not going to say much more about the movie's story line except to tell you how much we both enjoyed it. I was already aware of this story from a History Channel program and I was not disappointed in the Hollywood treatment of it.

This film has been available on DVD in rental places and netflix for a few weeks now, so I was wondering if any of you have seen it since I posted this topic back in January. Like/dislike? I loved it myself. It was truthful in depicting the way that Jewish resistance fighters were treated by other Partisans as well as the Russian 'regulars'.

It's on my Netflix list. May be a while. I'm still wading through "Fall of Eagles". Patrick Stuart as Lenin- and he had hair back then.
