My friend is very interested in the Holocaust, particularly anything to do with Auswitch. Can anyone give me the names of some movies about the Holocaust please?

The Holocaust mini series for TV is fantastic; it is long, but it encompasses a family and how they were before and after Hitler's rise to power. It is excellent. Then Schindler's List and The Sorrow and the Pity, which is more a documentary.
Auschwitz still stands and you can tour it, if you want to and are in the area. A freind of mine went there and he is the most unimaginative person I know, yet he said he felt haunted there the entire time. It has a definite feel, which of course it would have, given the horrors that took place in that location.

Schindler's List is great!
Schindler's List is a 1993 biographical film directed by Steven Spielberg, telling the story of Oskar Schindler, a Sudeten-German Catholic businessman who saved the lives of over one thousand Polish Jews during the Final Solution. It was based on the book Schindler's Ark by Thomas Keneally, and starred Liam Neeson as Schindler, Ralph Fiennes as the SS officer Amon Göth, and Ben Kingsley as Schindler's secretary Itzhak Stern. The film was a box office success, and won several Academy Awards, including Best Film and Best Director.

Perhaps a change from the American point of view would be see , "Zero Degree Turn," this centers on a love story between an Iranian-Palestinian Muslim man and a French Jewish woman. This is a series made with the help of the Iranian goverment, the hero saves his love from Nazi detention camps, and Iranian diplomats in France forge passports for the woman and her family to sneak on to airplanes carrying Iranian Jews to their homeland.
It is also broadcast with English subtitles on the state-controlled Jameh Jam satellite channel, which is available on Europe's Hot Bird satellite network

Great to hear that Mel Gibson is making a holocaust film.
Will his version have the English running the camps and gas chambers I wonder?
