Phoenix

Phoenix turned out to be a lot better than I expected it to be. The story is not a time period that is much delved into as far as the movies go. The aftermath of WWII when the people return from the camps and war. And face what happened. The story is centered around a woman who got shot in the face at Auschwitz and had surgery and she just wants to find her husband - who it turned out, unbeknownst to her, has actually told Nazis about her and got a divorce right after she is arrested. She loves him very much and they meet again although he thinks that his wife is dead and he can use this new lady to con his way into her money (all her relatives died probably in concentration camps). The ending of this film was so effective and it had given me chills.
