Book Description:
The third edition of Indelible Shadows includes five new chapters that cover recent trends, as well as rediscoveries of motion pictures made during and just after World War II. It addresses the treatment of rescuers, as in "Schindler's List"; the controversial use of humor, as in "Life is Beautiful"; the distorted image of survivors, and the growing genre of documentaries that return to the scene of the crime or rescue. The annotated filmography offers capsule summaries and information about another hundred Holocaust films from around the world, making this edition the most comprehensive and up to date discussion of films about the Holocaust.

' ... a powerful, passionate and poignant book with many virtues ... Her understanding of film is superb and her sensitivity to the Holocaust is evident throughout her work.' Michael Berenbaum, project Director, U. S. Holocaust Museum
