    Poor story line that boored me to tears. I didnt like either movie, and neither did my family. Sorry. Robin Williams is a fantastic actor, now deceased. Dead Poets Society was a real good story, as was Awakenings.

    GREAT PRICE FOR A GREAT ROBIN WILLIAMS DOUBLE FEATURE MOVIE DVD. BOTH MOVIES HAVE A LOT TO SAY AND HE SAYS IT IN HIS VERY UNIQUE WAY.

    Both are good movies. Worth adding to your collection, especially if a Robin Williams fan. Im sure for any of us his suicide makes watching some of his films difficult at times. Both of these are dark, so not his wild, spirited comedy, that were used to. That said, films that convey heartfelt emotions are always worth watching. He does a fine job acting in both of these.

To combat the overwhelming depression that pervades the ghetto, Jakob invents fictitious news bulletins about Allied advances against the Nazis. These lies keep hope and humor alive among the ghetto inhabitants spirits are lifted, hearts are refreshed, and optimism is reborn. The Germans learn of the mythical radio and begin a search for the resistance hero who dares operate it.
