After saving blacks (Glory), the Japanese (The Last Samurai), and blacks again (Blood Diamond), Ed Zwick has turned his attentions to the Jews. While it’s fitting that the leading proponent of the White Gentiles Saving Minorities genre has cast some gentiles in the main Jewish roles of this WWII true story, wouldn’t it have been gloriously ironic if he had cast Ken Watanabe, Denzel Washington and Don Cheadle as the three brothers who begin a guerilla campaign against the Nazis in Poland?
Anyway, the final poster is here, and it shows as little imagination and verve as Zwick’s films (seriously, the only Zwick film I honestly like is Glory). Coming Soon has the whole thing; click over there to see the lower half of Daniel Craig.
