[QUOTE="Angela Channing, post: 225337, member: 33"] [B]Resistance (2020)[/B] The untold story of mime artist Marcel Marceau who was part of the French resistance during the Second World War and was responsible for saving the lives of hundreds of Jewish children. A fascinating story but a flawed film. Jesse Eisenberg is a great actor but not a great mime artist; far too stiff and expressionless when doing mime and so was not particularly convincing in those scenes but thankfully they were kept to minimum. Parts of the film reminded me of [I]The Sound of Music[/I], parts reminded me of [I]Life Is Beautiful[/I] and parts reminded me of [I]The Great Escape[/I] but this film wasn't as good as any of those. That said, there was still enough in this film to enjoy and some of the escape scenes were genuinely nail-biting, edge of the seat stuff. Not all heroes wear capes, some wear clown make-up and do mime.
