The Only Way

This is quite an interesting depiction of the activities of the Danish underground during their WWII occupation by the Nazis. It centres around the Jewish "Stein" family, and of the attempts by the courageous local population to shelter them, and to help them escape to safety. It features a gently engaging performance from a young Jane Seymour, and a host of Danish talent that add authenticity to the piece. It is a little light-weight at times, but the narrative makes no bones about the attitude of most of the people to do what they can to thwart the ambitions of their overlords - and that story is riddled with bravery and potency. The production is a bit limited, it can't have had much of a budget, but what we have here is food for thought, especially for those of us whose nations did not find themselves with unwanted house-guests during the war.
