The book is one of the best I've read in many years, and it is actually the first and only book that made me seriously cry. The movie is ok, but they have changed too many things in the plot for no reason but making it look more "hollywood style"...read the book, that's the real masterpiece
CARMEN NAH Sophie has such beautiful, stunning blue eyes. They certainly add class to an amazing, gentle face. What a wonderful, intelligent young girl.
'Saumensch'!!! Lol Sophie was brilliant in the film. If you want to get an even better sense of her personality and charm see 'Sophie Nélisse à Tout le monde en parle' here on YT. Blows the doors off.
also the dress the actress is wearing is similar to the first sexy dress i had when i was fifteen precisly the patern of the dress , but the colour of the dress was navy and not brow like the colour of the dress of the actress . unfortunatly in 2018 during my visit to algeria i took my dress with me to investigate why i had this dress precisly , but amel rouichi roiffice and agoudjil madina had stolen this dress from my items with my laptop and made the kidnaping over night after that . i have never found the dress again despite i have pictures of it , the same for my laptop . amina rouichi
the dress was decoltee avec des brutelle , avec une formation de x sur les epaules par le daut et par le devant , la robe a ete robe serree avec midi lenght , i did draft about this dress two years ago and even made a sketch of its design this was done in one of my memory witness books i have drafted , one of the 12 books . amina rouichi
I saw a behind the scenes clip and Sophie kinda sounded English. Maybe because she was talking to a English guy and was just saying stuff in a English accent
The thing is maybe she doesn't know about a lot of it because she's American. I mean because in Britain the topic is explained to us from a very early age because it was a travesty and we were a key part in it since the start, America joined in later and helped us out ALOT but weren't a key part at the start and also because it had a major part in the woman's rights movement, if we hadn't has ww2 maybe woman in Britain wouldn't have as many rights
Sorry, didn't know! But really the same thing applies , I wasn't saying that America didn't do it especially I was just commenting on how much Britain does it.
Bethan Chalmers We do learn it but only at the age of 16 or so because for the most part we learn about the history of Canada (and Quebec mostly since it began there) and the first nations. Some of my friends didn't even have a class on the world wars in high school! I had the chance t learn it since I had a great teacher but I think we do have to rethink our history classes it is way too self centered. sorry for the bad english, I'm french canadian :)
***** You have very good points but alas not relating to my comment, I never claimed that we are fully informed about the holocaust or the two world wars, I never claim it's not biased, I know that we essentially invented concentration camps in Africa, I know that although he is portrayed as this grumpy ultra Christian man Oliver Cromwell helped bring back the Jews into England, I sometimes have to roll my eyes when we do 'Scottish wars of independence ' because I know it's incredibly biased. And again these are things we need to consider when thinking about our education system but again, that was not what my comment was about. And yes I was informed earlier that she was Canadian not American, I'm sorry about my mistake. You see the point in my comment was that British schools teach us at the age of 12 about WWII and continue in secondary school, and it's probably because we, as a nation, were so impacted by it and a key part in it, I also mentioned the huge impact it had on women's rights. I also don't think Churchill was a saint, he was probably a unpleasant man but he was what the country needed at the time, someone who was reasonably fearless,, that's my opinion on him. So although your points are all very interesting, a reply to my comment, it is not.
***** But again even your reply to my reply is not getting the simple point, I understand the majority of these factors and they are very interesting and important facts and I love talking abouit historical inaccuracies let me tell you but.... it really has very little to do with my comment, I know your probably bubbling with passion for this topic which is great, maybe you should start a blog, or just start a comment chain of your own so more people can discuss easier with you, you see? Though as I said all very interesting but then again history always is. And yes I don't know where I would be without my multiregional dvd player
I finally got around to seeing this film and am astounded at Sophie Nelisse's performance, thinking she should have won something....which, come to discover, she did win many somethings. What a movie! Makes me realize Germans suffered great oppression in their own society by their own military. So many had no choice but to abide the Nazi party. What a senseless cause which started that war.
i know Sophie Nélisse because of her mom because her mom is my teacher english at my scholl in Montréal so Sopie speak french to and Sophie did come to my school for doing a interwiew whit her movie The Book Thief and i got her autograph and a picture of me and her
i wouldnt mind being an actor! good movie just finished watching it today it really got me sucked in i was nearly in tears but i over came it great movie suitable for any one
Interesting part in which both actors pointed out the need for education on this massive and important part of history. World War II was a game changer to the world it introduced civilizations into the modern era with all it's greed and power; lest to say Nazism had a concept of building generation of purity and book destruction by many good authors (which also defined there thoughts about power) where tried to be eliminated. Nonetheless to say it was also a racial war and many had to pay the price like in many other world conflicts. Nice video keep it up :) ! Kurt.
A few weeks ago in class we were discussing movies and someone brought up the book thief and my friend asked me what it was about and where was it set I told her about hitler and the nazis and she was like whats a nazi. I was just surprised I didn't even bother continuing told her to go look it up
Literally if you watched just the movie you know nothing. The books so sad, but soooo good. It sheds more light of Liesel and Rudy relationship, Hans is a huge sweetheart in the book, and it misses such important movements in the movies. Plus the moments with Max is way better and momentous in the book. Seriously read the book its so good. Also am I the only one who's read the book?
Lauren Kate I’ve read the book as well, for school. We also watched the movie, and we had to pause it because the class was freaking out when Hans didn’t slap Liesel in that one scene 😂
I know from a friend who is American the history of Europe is a blank space completely for most of the youngsters in America today. I am 20, and I've had to learn about world wars and Hitler etc. when I was 12 or 13 years old, and so does my cousin who is 9 years younger than me. In Europe, we are aware, we know what happened, the horrors our families and nation suffered, we are reminded by older generations every day... And I'm glad. And if this great movie helped at least few Americans, who had no idea, understand that it's more than just a movie, I'm glad for that, too.
As a World War II historian the movie was wonderful!!! Definitely gives you a snapshot of lives in that time. I don't know how those people did what they did and got through that time!! Some of the strongest people ever!! Hopefully the Ukraine people of today can use these individuals as inspiration!! Never give up and always find a way!!!
I've read the book but I'm not interested in watching the movie. Look at the actors and actresses - do they look like someone suffering from war, hunger, and poverty? They should be extremely slim, lean, and fragile.
Give her a chance, she's from Québec and she spoke French as a mother language for all her life, and English only as a second language in school with almost no opportunities to practice it. She probably didn't see a lot of movies with Geoffrey Rush in them.
I was only joking, she was awesome in the movie. But she's like 14 years old, you would think she probably would have seen him in something - c'mon everyone's seen POTC
The book is one of the best I've read in many years, and it is actually the first and only book that made me seriously cry. The movie is ok, but they have changed too many things in the plot for no reason but making it look more "hollywood style"...read the book, that's the real masterpiece
Totally agreeing
I adore Geoffrey Rush- what a BRILLIANT man!
What a wonderful person and actress she is!
Sophie much love from Israel ♥
+EV docmaker Press are bougth by palestinians.
cinema writer damn why the hate she was just saying she loves an actress and you make fun of her and her country what a bitch
Geoffrey Rush is the best Hans Hubermann, amazing, Sophie played Lised very excellent :))
God I want to here him say aaaaaah yes
Holly * her accent in the movie is so good i tought she is german. I m shocked after watching this.
emma 44 and she's canadian... french canadian 😉
God she's beautiful
CARMEN NAH
Sophie has such beautiful, stunning blue eyes. They certainly add class to an amazing, gentle face. What a wonderful, intelligent young girl.
God, I know. She looks just like my cousin
Wee woo wee woo
how wise she is. i love her
she's such a great little actress, she's so good in it
SOPHIE NELISSE. YOU ARE MY FAVORITE ACTRESS AND I LOVE YOU YOU HAVE SO MUCH TALENT♡
'Saumensch'!!! Lol
Sophie was brilliant in the film.
If you want to get an even better sense of her personality and charm see 'Sophie Nélisse à Tout le monde en parle' here on YT. Blows the doors off.

Hermosa pelo te hace un reflexión

Te amo Liesel😘
She doesn't know.

I'm still very impressed with you English, I could not speak such fluent french, yeah that is strange because we start learning about at 12

Я один русско-язычный?
Мастер Игр Rush B?
Sorry I'll leave
It spell checked
her character in the movie is so good but i think in reality shes not...
When she mentioned Quills I just about died. And I think he did too.
I finally got around to seeing this film and am astounded at Sophie Nelisse's performance, thinking she should have won something....which, come to discover, she did win many somethings. What a movie! Makes me realize Germans suffered great oppression in their own society by their own military. So many had no choice but to abide the Nazi party.

+Hikaru Yuuki Congrats! that's so lucky :)
She's good this kid, I really thought she had that accent I love the way she says Rudy.
I love how Hans Hubberman was Captain Barbosa in Pirates of the Caribbean xD
and then the physician at the kings' speech
i wouldnt mind being an actor! good movie just finished watching it today it really got me sucked in i was nearly in tears but i over came it great movie suitable for any one

Idk who told you that, but I learned of the World Wars when I was in 8th grade....
monikavec yeah, idk who told you that but they must have not been paying attention. American children learn all about european history in school.
She's cute
if i d ever get a chance to make a batman movie id love to see Geoffrey rush as alfred. he is a legend..
Sophia has a magical sparkle in her
( I wish I know her not because she famous it's because I think me and her could be really good friends)
As a World War II historian the movie was wonderful!!! Definitely gives you a snapshot of lives in that time. I don't know how those people did what they did and got through that time!! Some of the strongest people ever!! Hopefully the Ukraine people of today can use these individuals as inspiration!! Never give up and always find a way!!!
Good lord, Geoffrey Rush, a true treasure. And a new treasure, Sofie Nelisse. The cast of this movie was tremendous and breathtaking.
Wonderful movie & story! Great actors, love Sophie Nelisse!!
This film cannot come soon enough! If it is half as good as the book it it will win all the Oscar,s.
I enjoyed the film very much, tears at the end!! Not like me at all...
One of my favourite movies.
I've read the book but I'm not interested in watching the movie. Look at the actors and actresses - do they look like someone suffering from war, hunger, and poverty? They should be extremely slim, lean, and fragile.
Nico Liersch ( Rudy) should be in international movies! And so should Nélisse! Two wonderful actors! Of course Geoffrey is a monument!
Hall of fame
SHE DIDN'T KNOW WHO HE WAS?! GET TO THE LOCKER
Give her a chance, she's from Québec and she spoke French as a mother language for all her life, and English only as a second language in school with almost no opportunities to practice it. She probably didn't see a lot of movies with Geoffrey Rush in them.
I was only joking, she was awesome in the movie. But she's like 14 years old, you would think she probably would have seen him in something - c'mon everyone's seen POTC
Wow he is alive!!! I can now start living
How old are Holly and Rush
2018?
Sorry
does she live in los Angles
No, she's french canadian
i htought they were german because of their faked accents
would be better with the normal english accents
the germ,an one is ennerving
Your spelling started so well
The German accent is for realism. They literally live in Germany lol.
Why I see her as an arrogant??
No clue Maybe it's u
This film is so close to perfect, that I'll just call it that: perfect.
