THE BOOK THIEF

Title:  The Book Thief
Jan's Rating:  A
Time:  2 Hours 10 Mins.

Jan's Opinion:  This is another movie that I didn't see when it was at the theater so I bought it and Dave and I watched it today.  We both loved it and gave it an "A".  The leading role is played by a young girl named Sophie Ne'lisse., who did an outstanding job portraying "Liesel", who is adopted by a German couple when her mother can no longer care for her.  The movie chronicles the years that Hitler was in command, 1938-1945.  The couple who adopt Liesel also takes in a young Jewish man and hides him in their basement.  You will alternately laugh and cry during this movie.  We loved it!
