Review of Rosenstrasse (2003) by Hege L — 17 Sep 2007
The storytelling is masterfully done, using a unique style of framing and flash-backs that connect the lives of our main players in deeply emotional ways.
That's the great thing about the film: it manages to tell the story of one person in one time by telling the story of a completely different person in a different time. As a result, the film is able to leave a deep impression on the viewer as he/she is able to internalize and relate the events to his/her own life.
The film can get away without being completely historically accurate, since it is being told through the eyes of an old lady survivor, who may be embellishing or forgetting certain facts.
