The Grey Zone DvD: Inspired by
real-life events at the Auschwitz death camp.
The title of Tim Blake Nelson's
harrowing drama of Jewish death camp prisoners
who rise up against their captors to "destroy
the machinery" refers as much to the compromise
and cloudy morality of collaboration as to the
gray world coated in the smoke and ash of the
crematoriums.
The Grey Zone stars David
Arquette as a soul-deadened laborer whose
being fiercely jolts to life when he finds
a young girl alive among the gassed
corpses. He's the heart and soul of an
outstanding cast that includes Steve
Buscemi and Daniel Benzali as revolt
leaders, Allan Corduner as the shunned
camp doctor, and Harvey Keitel as the
commandant. Nelson's rapid pacing,
intimate shooting, and terse, jagged
dialogue give the moral debate a
discomforting immediacy as it races a
deadline. When doom hangs in the air, sure
death creates unique priorities. --Sean
