Drama
Maybe the movie James Bond made Daniel Craig a star, but Defiance proves he is truly a good actor. This film shows the tragedy of war and the necessity of strong leadership and true Father-circuited men in times of turmoil, when decision-making and leadership is a matter of life and death. Thousands of lives were saved because of this kind of leadership, where a leader has to think in terms of the whole and the lives of many, over misplaced compassion or the concern for one. This World War II true story about the cruelty of the Nazis against the Jews shows the lowest and the highest qualities in humanity, as intellectuals and common workers come together for survival. Liev Schreiber plays the brother who is also a man's man, but not quite the leader of his brother, because he cannot control his anger. In the end, he too discovers this truth and rejoins his brother championing the lives of over a thousand Jews they saved together; Jamie Bell.
