'Caught' – Cinderella noir on Criterion Channel
‘Caught’ – Cinderella noir on Criterion Channel

The Boat is Full (1981). During World War II, "neutral" Switzerland closed its borders to immigrants, effectively becoming a conspirator in the Holocaust. This Academy Award-nominated drama looks at that phenomenon on a human level. A group of six illegal immigrants, five Jews and one deserting Nazi soldier, cross the Swiss border during the night. They find refuge at an inn, and pose as a German family. However, village spies watch their every move, as the threat of deportation -- and certain death -- always looms.
Oh, I really liked this one. There's something that really resonates in its exploration of escape, survival and the ways we become complicit during times of war and horror. It's specific, and never gets bogged down in trying to tell the broader story of WWII, instead relying on the fact that its audience understands this era to hone in on this tiny group of people over just a few days, which in turn allows the film to really be personal and intimate and tragic too. Really special stuff. 8/10,
