Intense, visceral performances by all but of course the story is so awful that it is a film that can only be appreciated not enjoyed.

We follow a group of female death camp prisoners making it through in a rag tag musical band. This is not quite realistic except for some details. We see them a bit diseased but still too well off and not half as worried as should be. The film is a bit of cinema about it. Maybe a bit of moquery with a lesbian temptation. The germans do not look very dangerous but they had bit of footage of the time to help us imagine the way it was.

Heavy movie. The director took on difficult subject of the dark time of WWII and the holocaust. An ambitious project for sure. The story itself is quite captivating but unfortunately the movie smells of cheap production and some aspects are not historically accurate. The Auschwitz-Birkenau was liberated by Russians, so where the British Army came from in the final scene, I wonder. They never made it to this part of Europe during the war. And it was end of January, not even one snowflake on the ground in the movie.

Very atmospheric, with Redgrave at her best!

TV MOVIE. True story of Fania Fenelon, a singer who is forced to sing in the Nazi concentration camps. Brilliant screenplay by Arthur Miller and top notch acting and directing. Redgrave is brilliant, but Jane Alexander is mesmerizing as the uncompromising orchestra leader. Winner of multiple Emmy's. CBS 9/30/1980
