Trailer: DEFIANCE
BLOOD DIAMOND was one of my absolute favourite films of 2006 and it hasn't taken long for director Edward Zwick to return to work and get us excited about one of his movies again. Opening on December 26th (yeah we got a long while yet) will be DEFIANCE, a World War II movie starring Daniel Craig, Liev Schreiber and Jamie Bell as three Jewish brothers who escape from Nazi-occupied Poland into the Belarussian forest, where they join Russian resistance fighters and endeavor to build a village of a 1,000 people in the forest in order to protect themselves and others in danger. It's one of those "it's so bizarre it's gotta be true stories" and if you can't wait till Christmas it is chronicled in the book Defiance: The Bielski Partisans which you can purchase HERE.
