Generation War, a German production, 2013<\/em><\/center><\/p>\n

We Americans have seen many movies about World War II, but we probably haven’t seen a movie about how the war looked from a German perspective. Generation War<\/em> is hard to watch, as the misery and disillusion of the Germans escalate year after awful year. The stories of the five young people in Generation War<\/em> make it clear that the lies behind the war were as cruel as the war itself, adding existential agony to the physical agony.<\/p>\n

The series is in three parts, each about an hour and a half long. The cast is charismatic. It’s a beautiful period piece, shot in Germany, Lithuania, and Latvia.<\/p>\n

Generation War<\/em> can be streamed on Netflix and Amazon Prime Video.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
