"Divided We Fall" tells of a married Czech couple who adroitly escape the ubiquitous threats of WWII Nazi occupation while hiding a Jew and consorting with a Nazi friend. A sensitive, thoughtful, and human Oscar winning drama of technical and artistic excellence, "DWF" has a peculiar sort of "personality" which capriciously meanders from moments of terror or suspense to blithe drama and comic relief. Characteristically European in flavor, "DWF" will have limited appeal among American audiences while being well received by those who appreciate Europix.
