'Shoah' is difficult to watch, but few other films match its consideration of unspeakable evil and indifference.
07/17/09
Lanzmann builds the past using tools that exist only in the present, summoning an unfathomable catastrophe with the voices and memories of survivors.
09/29/03
In his seminal Holocaust documentary, which runs over 9 hours, Lanzmann doesn't use archival footage, only interviews with survivors and Nazi officers. He does something fascinating, placing his aggressive presence center-stage, not to be ignored.

It is impossible not to change a little bit after watching all 9 ½ hours of Shoah.

The film is undeniably tough going, but by looking into the hearts of the people that experienced the atrocities, it gets at the heart of the horror itself.

Lazmann's 9 ½ hour labor of love equals The Triumph Of The Will for its [historical] importance
10/25/03
Lanzmann's project is so vast and so meticulous as to render any criticism, positive or negative, irrelevant.

Top CriticThe chief success of the film...is to remove the Holocaust from its comfortably horrifying place in history, and restore a human face to the atrocities.
