The Holocaust movie is almost a genre in itself these days.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
What I had to say was, in general, I'm not really a fan of any one genre of any kind of film.
The Holocaust is a central event in many people's lives, but it also has become a metaphor for our century. There cannot be an end to speaking and writing about it. Besides, in Israel, everyone carries a biography deep inside him.
What I'm trying to say is the Holocaust was a horrific crime against humanity and frankly, I would never want to see that repeated.
Many people think making a film about history... about war... about the Holocaust, it might be heavy, dramatic and traumatic. I don't see things like that... you can find irony everywhere. It's how I look at life.
I don't read 'genre' fiction if that means novels with lots of killing and shooting. Even Cormac McCarthy's 'No Country for Old Men' seemed pretty childish in that regard.
Up until doing this movie, I hadn't really paid a huge amount of attention to those genres, but after finishing this movie, it really gave me a different sense of appreciation of the way the movies play out.
The only genre I have any problem with is musicals, but that's just my own tastes it's nothing to do with the films.
Musicals and horror movies are my two favorite genres because they're about extremes.
It doesn't matter to me what the genre is.
The Holocaust story has been told and retold so many times.
