Answer 3

I heard of the gray area. my boss uses that expression all the time. according to him "nothing is clear, it's a gray area". It might mean the same as gray zone. Wow I was looking at pictures about an hour ago of the camps that are still there(holocaust) boy that is frightening.

Answer 4

Jean Grey became the Phoenix, and later evolved(?) into the Dark Phoenix, according to the comic book timeline. The movie doesn't exactly adhere to the comic books, as this metamorphosis involved aliens from the Shi'ar Empire, and the Omicron(?) Crystal. Not exactly sure of the spellings on these. Anyway, Jean's heightened mental powers were absorbed by the crystal, or vice versa, and she became the Phoenix. When the power started taking control of her, mind and all, she became the Dark Phoenix. The movie doesn't really explain her Phoenix-like abilities, but that is who we are to believe her to be. And, it's obvious that they are setting us up for another movie.

Answer 5

I did a google search [for you] and the gray zone is a book-turned-movie about the Holocaust.
Here are a few links:

~excerpt: "Primo Levi's laconic, searing depiction of life in the camps -- especially in ''Survival in Auschwitz'' and ''The Drowned and the Saved'' -- is a primary source for many of Langer's ideas. The camps, Levi writes, were an inverted moral universe, a ''gray zone'' where irrationality reigned. (''Hier ist kein warum.'' ''There is no why here,'' Levi's guard at Auschwitz tells him.)

~excerpt: At once brutally realistic and highly theatrical, Tim Blake Nelson's screen version of his play ``The Grey Zone'' may well evoke the mechanized horror in the bowels of the Nazi death camps more vividly than any fictional film to date.
