If you loved Sarah's Key, try The Captain

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Theysit in Drama / War territory. If that's the register that drew you to Sarah's Key, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Captain is

You're a Wehrmacht deserter in the Third Reich's final days. You find an abandoned Nazi officer's uniform and try it on, but people begin mistaking you for a captain. Schwentke finds the humor in wartime atrocities. The film lingers on the banality of power.
