The Boy in the Striped Pajamas

During World War II, 8-year-old Bruno (Asa Butterfield) and his family leave Berlin to take up residence near the concentration camp where his father (David Thewlis) has just become commandant. Unhappy and lonely, he wanders out behind his house one day and finds Shmuel (Jack Scanlon), a Jewish boy of his age. Though the barbed-wire fence of the camp separates them, the boys begin a forbidden friendship, oblivious to the real nature of their surroundings.

The Boy in the Striped Pajamas

NPR's overly intellectual review notwithstanding, the typical viewer will find themself frozen in their seat as the breach of the ending credits, coupled with the stark "music" at the movies' climax, advise against any last-second happy ending. No redemption for innocence; just the message indended. Take your loved-one; and have a kleen-ex (or two) handy.
