I finished watching Europa Europa earlier this morning, a film about a Jewish boy who passes as an (impure) Aryan and survives in the HJ, narrowly avoiding arrest. It’s a nice reminder of what living in the Third Reich felt like, and it’s a rare example of a Western film where the portrayal of the Soviets isn’t (complete) crap.
It also taught me that the Third Reich removed Jewish gravestones, which, oddly enough, is something that never crossed my mind before. It makes me wonder if they even exhumed the coffins.
On a less serious note, I’ve been rewatching Regular Show as a means of passing the time. Naturally, it isn’t as entertaining as the first time that I watched it, but it is interesting enough to hold my attention.
