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”?

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.
