JoJo Rabbit (SPOILERS ALERT) [View all]
I know I posted about this film before, and a few were hesitant to see it. I finally was able to drag my ass to see it and I found it highly entertaining and really recommend it. Yes it's is very emotional entertaining, with a shocking scene at towards the end, but it's worth a watch.
The young boy is amazing and should be up for honors during the Award Season. The interactions between him and his mother are very touching. The Director also wrote AND played Hitler (as JoJO imaginary friend) so you should be up for several awards at Award Season.
The ending contains a redeeming two shot punch. JoJo final rejection of his imaginary friend, and him dancing with his Jewish friend.
Earlier JoJO asks the Jewish Girl (that his Mother was hiding at their house) what would be the first thing she would do if she was free.
She replied that she would dance. As the Americans come into town JoJo takes the young jewish girl out into the street. She starts swaying to the music in her head. JoJO starts moving with her and David Bowie's German version of "HEROES" starts playing.
The scene brought tears to my eyes and I was one of the few the audience that clapped.
