I did read about this awhile ago.

It is always encouraging to read about those who had the courage to help and stand up against the Nazis!

I've always loved watching Isabella Rossellini.

I always enjoy historical stories and this one sounds good.  It is important that we know about these unsung heroes who risked their lives to save people during the war.  TV should do more of those type shows instead of so many which are on now.
