"HUMOR, IDENTITY AND THE HOLOCAUST" Film talk with filmmaker Rex Bloomstein December 3, 2010 (Friday) at 12:00 Noon Library of Congress, Pickford Theater Madison Building, 3rd Floor British filmmaker Rex Bloomstein has devoted much of his career to making films about the Holocaust and other aspects of Jewish history, culture and values. Is he a Jewish filmmaker first and foremost or someone who happens to be Jewish making films on topics that interest him? Join him on a personal quest to understand the impact of identity on the themes he has chosen for his work-or that have chosen him! The program presents excerpts from his films including The World of Jewish Humour, featuring Alan King and Milton Berle; Nightmare's End, focusing on the liberation of the concentration camps from the soldiers' point of view, and KZ, an exploration of the town and concentration camp of Mauthausen today.
