Anyone read “Everything is Illuminated” or seen the movie? I recommend both but read the book first.

Anyone read “Everything is Illuminated” or seen the movie? Just read the synopsis at Amazon and some reviews, sounds very interesting. FR ought to have a movie critique corner of some sorts, it's too hard to find good stuff and when one has some guidance, particularly by folks like FReepers, it would be a good thing. Thanks for the recommendation.

I’ve seen the movie. It was one of those movies that I caught while flipping channels and it just drew me in.
I found out some info on the author, Jonathan Safran Foer, when I was looking for info on Jews and vegetarianism. I had already gone vegan for my health, but seeing his videos (http://www.goveg.com/jsfkosher.asp) opened my eyes to what goes on in the kosher slaughter houses. Living in Iowa with the Agriprocessors mess, it just reinforces my resolve to stay vegan for health, for the animals, and for my conscience.
I converted to Judaism some years ago. Part of my conversion ceremony mentioned taking the place of a Jew who died in the Holocaust. I keep that in mind when I see stories like this. I don’t know the name of ‘my’ person, but I think of him/her often.
Strange story - turns out I have a connection to Hitler via a German grad school adviser. Kinda freaked me out when I found out about it.

And to think that this was nearly stolen from the world, even worse there are still those who would do so.
