Just when you thought there wasn't anything anyone could say about the Holocaust that hasn't been said many times before, along comes the stunning picture "Fateless." Based on Imre Kertész's semi-autobiographical novel about the years he spent being shunted from one concentration camp to the next during World War II, the drama is, in its way, more powerful than "Schindler's List" with its adamant cataloging of the daily horrors endured by victims of Hitler's Final Solution. It makes "Life Is Beautiful" seem appallingly shallow. Read the full review

The Palm Beach Post: A
"... not an easy film to sit through, but those who do will not soon forget it."
