Eventually they movie to Paris, where antisemitism is rife. Dad is a wanted man, with a price on his head, and Nazi sympathizers are everywhere. But their parents must keep a low profile. She soon adjusts and makes local friends. Girls are separated from boys and kept at the back of the classroom, and boys throw rocks at girls they like. Anna is baffled by the strange accent, their melted cheese and odd customs. So they settle into country life in a tiny alpen village near lake Zurich. Suddenly they are refugees, and Jewish intellectuals, no less, an exceedingly unpopular category. The government seizes all his possessions and furniture, brown shirts burn his books, and newspapers stop publishing his work. Hitler triumphs, and they’re stranded in Zurich. They plan to come back after the election.

So the family packs up a few suitcases for a quick trip to Switzerland. If the Nazis win he will likely be jailed or killed. As a committed socialist and an unsparing critic, he’s prominent on Hitler’s enemy list. But with elections a week away, and Hitler’s Nazis likely to prevail, Dad is worried. And they all adore their housekeeper Heimpi. Their son, Max (Marinus Hohmann) is into Zorro, while little Anna (Riva Krymalowski) likes drawing pictures of animals at the zoo. Dad (Oliver Masucci) is a leading theatre critic, also known for his radio broadcasts. The Kempers are an upper middle class family living in a nice neighbourhood. So if you like action thrillers, you should check this one out. This movie was just released in South Korea and it’s the years first blockbuster. Escape from Mogadishu has a hardboiled, cynical tone, but with a great streak of ironic humour and an underlying message of good will. The Korean characters are more rounded but not always favourable either. The Somalis are there as decoration, mainly portrayed as corrupt, violent, crazy, untrustworthy, or else as silent, nameless victims - typical of most war movies. It’s set in Somalia (and shot in Morocco) but it’s really about Koreans - rivalry, suspicion, with the underlying hope of brotherhood and peace. It includes an amazing, 30-minute chase scene as they try to escape. This is a fun movie about rivals caught in an apocalypse. And neither country can let it be known they’re doing anything that might help the other side. When they encounter each other face-to-face, the ROKs thinks the DPRKs are trained as killers since they were kids while they’re sure the South Koreans are either trying to poison them or force them to defect. Both North and South Koreans loathe their rivals - the countries are technically still at war, with a 40-year-old ceasefire at their shared border. There are child soldiers shooting rifles at random, corrupt police, and mobs of looters running rampant. And due to strange circumstances, the North and the South are forced to cooperate, and try to escape together.Įscape from Mogadishu is a Korean action/thriller set in a Somalia teetering on the brink of civil war. And when all communications cease, both sides realize they have to get the hell out of Mogadishu. But the Somali government is losing its grip, and there’s mayhem on the streets. They each run underhanded schemes against the other side, from planting fake news reports, to hiring thugs to steal embassy materials. Likewise, his counterpart from the north. Kang (In-Sung Jo) is a recent arrival from the notorious Korean CIA. And they each have heavy-hitters to help them. And the two ambassadors, Ambassador Han from the south (Kim Yoon-seok) and Ambassador Rim (Heo Joon-ho) from the north are in constant competition to curry favour with Barre’s government. It’s also the year when both North and South Korea are joining the United Nations, and are in heavy cold-war competition to build up more allies than their rival in vote-rich Africa. Its authoritarian President Barre is still in power but rebel forces are gaining strength. It’s 1990 in Mogadishu Somalia, and the country is on the verge of collapse. We’ve got Koreans in Mogadishu in the 1990s child refugees from Nazi Germany in the early 30s and Texan orphans playing football in the Great Depression.

This week I’m looking at three such movies, all set during the 20th century.

Some movies have titles that tell you a lot about what you’re going to see. Hi, this is Daniel Garber at the Movies for and CIUT 89.5 FM.
