TRAILER
![]() (Trailer can be downloaded) STUDIO SYNOPSIS Based on an extraordinary true story, "Defiance" is an epic tale of family, honor, vengeance and salvation in World War II. The year is 1941 and the Jews of Eastern Europe are being massacred by the thousands. Managing to escape certain death, three brothers take refuge in the dense surrounding woods they have known since childhood. There they begin their desperate battle against the Nazis. Daniel Craig, Liev Schreiber and Jamie Bell star as brothers who turn a primitive struggle to survive into something far more consequential – a way to avenge the deaths of their loved ones by saving thousands of others. SPIRITUAL POINT OF VIEW (continued from the Visual Review) TESTIMONY FOR DEFIANCE! None of us would wish hardship on anyone. Disasters that cripple human existence are exactly that –disasters! So, it is always amazing to hear of acts of endurance, survival, compassion and solidarity that come out such situations as portrayed in Defiance. Inspiring, to be sure. In stark contrast to the murderous persecution by the Nazis, there is the heroic life-giving saga of the Bielski partisans. I give the highest praise the producers of this film who have given us a testimony of those who stood in defiance to Hitler’s evil. Here the kind of inspiration we all need, to be sure. “The real legacy of the Bielskis is that so many people are here on earth who might never have lived.” -- Zvi Bielski, one of Zus’ sons ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Copyright © 2008 Hollywood Jesus.
