Sophie's Choice is a 1982 American drama film directed by Alan J. Pakula, based on the novel of the same name by William Styron. The film tells the story of Sophie Zawistowska, a Polish Catholic woman who survived the Auschwitz concentration camp during World War II. The story follows Sophie's complicated relationship with her nephew, Stingo, a young American writer, as she recounts her horrific experiences during the war, including being forced to make an unbearable choice that haunts her for the rest of her life.
IMDB - Won 1 Oscar + Another 14 wins
Meryl Streep's performance as Sophie is simply the finest performance ever captured on film. Period. The subtlety and depth with which she reveals Sophie's wounds are simply spellbinding. She is at once radiantly beautiful, yet deeply wounded. She is charming, yet vulnerable. She is someone you want to love, yet someone whose pain keeps you at a distance.
This film takes the viewer on an intense emotional journey. Anyone, but especially anyone who is a parent, would have to be an emotional rock to not be absolutely haunted by this story. As much as I have studied and pondered the Holocaust, this film has connected me to those events more emotionally than I have ever been before.
This film, and Ms. Streep's performance, are a gift to humanity.
