[AGL] 2 german films

[Jon Ford]

I liked both of these films ,too. Another more recent one I'm seeing this 
week on DVD is "Sophie Scholl: The Final Days." Sophie Scholl was a student 
activist in the White Rose resistance group in WWII Germany. As the New 
Yorker puts it "May sound like a history lesson, but...it's a horror film."
