Movie Reviews of I Have Never Forgotten You: The Life and Legacy of Simon Wiesenthal
Movie Review: Stirring documentary about the life and times of Simon Wiesenthal
Summary: 5 Stars
This documentary pays homage to famous Nazi hunter Simon Wiesenthal who emerged from the embers of the Holocaust, determined to seek justice for the senseless loss of lives during the Holocaust. Wiesenthal lost 89 members of his own family during the Holocaust, and together with his wife Cyla were the only survivors. They had a daughter Pauline, but even the promise of a new beginning did not deter Wiesenthal from undertaking a long and arduous journey, dedicating his life to pursuing escaped Nazis guilty of the worst war crimes.
The documentary does a credible job of covering most of Wiesenthal's life - from his early life, to his education in the field of architecture, marriage to Cyla, their move to Lvov, the Nazi persecution of Jews [Wiesenthal and his family ended up in the Lvov Ghetto, but Cyla eventually was smuggled over to the Aryan side, assuming an Aryan identity given her non-Jewish looks], his deportation to Auschwitz and other camps during the remainder of the war and his Nazi-hunting activities after the war.
There are a lot of interview segments with Wiesenthal in this documentary, and interspersed with these interviews are archival footage of the concentration camps, pictures of infamous Nazi criminals, the war crimes trials, and interviews with close associates of Wiesenthal, as well as with his daughter and only child Pauline. I felt the interview with Pauline was the most insightful as it gave a glimpse into the lonely life of a child of Holocaust survivors - having to grow up with no grandparents, uncles, aunts or cousins must have been a solitary and depressing life indeed.
Viewers also get a glimpse of the notorious Nazi criminals such as Adolf Eichmann, Karl Silberbauer, Franz Stangl, and others.The documentary is narrated by actress Nicole Kidman, and as for the documentary itself it is in German and English with subtitles. The running time is approx 105 mins. This is a must-watch documentary for all those who are interested in the Holocaust as well as those seeking insights into Simon Wiesenthal, who is a true hero for his unstinting dedication in seeking justice for the six million who perished in the horror that was the Holocaust.
