Aside | The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas Movie Trailer
I read and reviewed The Boy in Striped Pyjamas by John Boyne last month and recommended that everyone go out and buy a copy. Here’s a snippet from my review:
This is the story of Bruno – a nine-year-old boy who has to leave his beloved home – with five floors and a banister that you can slide down – to live in a house with only three floors in a place called Out-With. This is the story of Bruno – a nine-year-old-boy who doesn’t understand why he can’t go out ot play with the little boys who appear at the bottom of his garden. This is the story of Bruno – a nine-year-old-boy who goes out to explore one day and sees ‘a dot in the distance become a speck and that spot becomes a blob and that becomes a figure and that in turn becomes a boy in striped pyjamas.’
This is a story about a time in history most of us would like to forget – but that we should be forced to remember – and the terrible things that can happen when people keep secrets from each other…
The book is now making its way to the big screen – with a UK release date of September 12, 2008. Take a look at the trailer – I think they may do the book justice – though I’ll be sure to take a box of tissues if I go to watch it!

It's more about childhood...![Reblog this post [with Zemanta]](http://img.zemanta.com/reblog_e.png?x-id=aa9bdc25-3d28-4a7e-9ee6-9fcce395852f)

why are people so stupid to think their better than others. if the league of nations had stopped hitler than the holocaust would never have happend. im only a 15 year old girl (as of september of 2009) but i think that i would make a better leader and would make this world better because everyone deserves to be happy and to live out their life however they want.
When i first heard i was supposed to read this book for the summer, i thought it was gonna be boring and stupid. but i was wrong. this book turned out to be a very interesting novel mainly because you had to figure it out by yourself. it made me want to read more of books like this. so i would reccommend this book to anyone who loves figuring out stuff
heyy x saw the film at school many people saiod CRAP but i thought the films ending was let off slightly but the book and film where almost identical it was very emotional and i cried buckets. the ending was sad but the whole film was great and the end just ended is wasnt really the day to day film witha happy ending but overall wow amazing terrific
I just watched this movie last night… it was amazing!!!!!! So sad!
I have not read the book, nor do I know if I am able, because books are usually more powerful than the movies, and the movie killed me. If you are in the mood to have your heart broke into tiny pieces, and the sick discomfort of how disgusting the nazis treated the jews, then watch this movie. Those times should never be forgotten or overlooked, because us humans are capable of far more unspeakable horrors, and hardenings of our hearts, than most of us care to remember in this rat race we call present day.
