Review – I Have Never Forgotten You

The title of this biography of Simon Wiesenthal does double duty. On the one hand, it’s a Hallmark-moment comment about the man himself, but on the other it’s a chilling reminder of his relentless pursuit of Nazi fugitives. The Wiesenthal Center gets production credit, and the documentary makes copious use of photos and video supplied by his family. However, it’s hard to get upset about a one-sided telling of the tale, given that his targets were some of the world’s most loathsome mass murderers. The story of his concentration camp experience is sadly all too familiar, but once he begins his career as a Nazi hunter the plot becomes more interesting. Overall this is a reasonably good portrait of a fascinating subject. Mildly amusing
