Holocaust Movie

The movie was very shocking to me. I knew about the whole mass assasination of Jews but I never knew of the events that lead up to the Holocaust. I also didn't know that Roosevelt ignored the whole problem in Germany until it was too late to do something about the problem. It was very sad to hear/see Kurt talk about his parents and how the letter for their visas came 2 and a half months too late. The movie was very depressing but was a good thing to watch and to get a better understanding of the Holocaust so we can better understand the book "Night" when we are reading it. Also, it was sad to find out how Americans treated Jewish people when they got to America. It made me very disappointed and I wish I could of helped some how.
