Hi Jake,

Yes, I've seen that quite a few times. I used to own it on DVD, in fact. It's not German, though, as far as I know, because it was directed by Steven Spielberg. All the same, it's a strong portrayal of what went on over there during those horrific times. It has some pretty heartbreaking scenes--like the one where the little girl is wandering the Warsaw ghetto streets right in the middle of the Warsaw Ghetto Massacre and goes upstairs in a house and hides under the bed. I used to skip over that scene sometimes. Later in the movie, when the Nazis are exhuming the mass graves and burning all the bodies, her body is on one of the carts being pushed around. If you look closely, you can see her scarlet coat on the cart. It took me quite a few viewings before I noticed this.

Let's see, what to say ... Well, I joined this site to get more involved in Christian dialogue, to be edified and an edifier. I like discussing the Bible and doing evangelism. Although we're temporarily shut down for the winter, some other Christians and I do outreach ministry in public every Sunday during the spring, summer, and fall. Our ministry is called Alexandria Gospel Outreach. The URL for the ministry web site should appear below in my signature, but if not the site can be found on the internet by doing a Google search in case you're interested in reading some ministry reports, checking out the quizzes we use and in general how we do the outreach. I also have a personal blog at wordpress.com called "Grammateus" (you can search for that, too, but it should be in my signature below). Other things I like to do or have enjoyed in the past: writing, teaching, web site creation, HTML, CSS, learning and tinkering with Java, studying German, watching German movies, and reading fiction (fantasy stuff like Lord of the Rings and post-apocalyptic fiction are probably my favorites).

I look forward to sharing on these boards.

Ha ha ... Nice one .... strict orders ... eh ..... hmmmm . Can you put this on your own thread ?

Well like a good fellow you do follow instuctions .... Now it's my turn to joke . LOL
