motisisa's "Best Jewish Movies"

Add to my lists | Print this list

What is a Jewish Film? And what makes a film Jewish?

It is not a question of Jewish actors, producers, or directors, otherwise most Hollywood films would be Jewish, but it is about the film’s storyline or whether the film has recognizably Jewish characters.

I hope you will find this list usefull

How about “Nowhere in Africa”? and “Paradise Now”?


You might also consider — 5 years ago

Resnais’ Night and Fog.

How are these Jewish movies? Because they have Jewish characters? Because there are Jewish actors in them? This list needs to be refined, IMO.
