The Last Stage (or The Last Stop) is a pioneering work - the first narrative film to portray the former Nazi German camp. Haltof discusses Jakubowska's life and career before World War II, her imprisonment during the war, the prominent role that she played in the nationalized postwar Polish cinema, and problems she faced during the script stage. The monograph also discusses the unusual circumstances that surrounded the production of the film at Auschwitz-Birkenau and summarizes critical debates surrounding its release. Screening Auschwitz is the first detailed monograph on this classic Holocaust film. The book incorporates new materials and sources obtained through extensive archival research, and examines the impact of the film on other Holocaust narratives. 410 0$aCultural expressions of World War II. 606 $aHolocaust, Jewish (1939-1945), in motion pictures 615 0$aHolocaust, Jewish (1939-1945), in motion pictures. 676 $a791.4372 700 $aHaltof$b Marek$0527802 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910272341103321 996 $aScreening Auschwitz$92189054 997 $aUNINA
