I wrote about the movie entitled “The boy in the striped pajamas” on a previous blog post: https://furtherglory.wordpress.com/2010/09/18/my-review-of-the-boy-in-the-striped-pajamas/
Today, I am commenting on a recent news article which I am quoting:
Throughout this election season, Donald Trump has been drawing comparisons to Adolf Hitler from his detractors. There have been quite a few of these comparisons, in fact. One comparison, however, was inadvertently made years before Trump bursted onto the campaign scene with his “Make America great again!” slogan.
The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas is a movie from 2008 that explored what the Jewish extermination camps of Hitler’s Germany looked like by framing events from the perspective of a young interned boy and the young son of one of the camp’s head officers.

Words similar to Trump’s words were used in the fictional movie entitled “The Boy in the Striped pajamas.”
I wrote a review of the movie, on my website, when the movie first came out: http://www.scrapbookpages.com/stripedpajamas.html

There is a poignant scene during which the son of the commandant talks to his sister about what their father really does after he discovers the true nature of the nearby camp. After he calls the camp a “horrible place,” his sister tells him this:
It’s only horrible for them, Bruno. We should be proud of Dad, now more than ever before. He’s making the country great again.
