anyone else bothered by...
I loved everything about the graveyard dream...as a stratagem for Tevye to change Golde's mind it was brilliant, and the music and sets were great...but I'm always brought up short with a gasp when they jump into the grave, because hundreds of thousands of Ukrainian Jews were murdered firstly by making them jump into mass graves. I know the actions of the killing squads in the former USSR abd Baltic states are not nearly as well known an aspect of the Holocaust as the death camps and gas chambers, but I'm surprised someone involved with the production didn't sqauwk about it being really insensitive. Great film though. That's about the only criticism I can think of for this one.....and does anyone know why there are no posts on here older than 2011?
