Film Director: Vicente Amorim Country: UK released 2007 Duration: 91 min. Language: English Viggo Mortensen plays German literature professor John Halder whose novel about compassionate euthanasia attracts the attention of Nazi officials and draws him into the Party circles. Halder is but one of millions of “good,” ordinary Germans living in a society spiralling out of moral control under the Nazi regime, and his story is both profound and damning. Its impact can be seen in the fate of his Jewish friend, Maurice, played by Jason Isaacs (“Bloodlines,” Harry Potter).
