“Defiance“, a film tht opened in 1,800 theaters across the U.S. last week, tells a tale of victimhood and valour as Jewish partisans fight Nazis. It is the latest addition to the ever-growing Holocaust film genre, which includes titles such as the Wannasee Conference, Music Box, Triumph of the Spirit, Hanna's War, Never Forget, the Witness, Sophie’s Choice, Julia, the Hiding Place, Swing Kids, the Last Train, Toyland, Schindler’s List, the Pianist, the Boy in Striped Pajamas and so on.
But one incredible story of Jews and genocide continues to elude Hollywood. It involves the execution of 20,000 Polish Officer POWs - devout Roman Catholics and Polish elite - by the Bolshevik, Jewish-led NKVD in the Katyn forest in 1940.
For Andrej Wajda, 82, Poland’s most celebrated film director, the film is personal. He lost his father at Katyn. In 2008, Wajda made a movie about this genocide and its effect on the victims’ families. Financed by Polish TV, the film, "Katyn", was a major artistic and commercial success in Poland. It was nominated for an Oscar for Best Foreign Film in 2008, but still has not found wide distribution outside Poland.
Why has Hollywood ignored this story? Well, obviously, it does not fit Hollywood's Nazi-Jew paradigm. Moreover, Hollywood is run by the anti-Christian spiritual descendants of such murders. Accordingly, the idea of portraying Christians not only as something other than Nazis but as victims of aggresssive Jews is not something you are going to see often.
Not surprisingly, "Katyn" didn’t win the Oscar. The award went to a Jewish Holocaust movie, “The Counterfeiters,” a “true story” from Germany. It described the moral dilemma faced by a Jewish master-counterfeiter forced to forge British and US currency. (”Should I sabotage this process?”) I saw this movie. It is an enjoyable piece of propaganda which helps the audience identify with Jews. In real life, I doubt if the hero had any such moral qualms. Even in the film, he filled his own pockets. (more)
