Thanks guys but that's crazy... the first thing I searched for was "jeff goldblum prisoner of war movie"
Found it now...
Anyway, what I was going to say was that, in the correct use of the phrase, civilians interned by the Germans in the death camps (or anywhere else for that matter) were
not technically 'prisoners of war'; that term should, as I understand it, only be applied to military personnel, and many ex prisoners seeking compensation payable to "Prisoners of War" have had to
prove their former status as such before receiving payment.
A good point for debate, to be sure, but I haven't watched this film yet, so it remains to be seen (see what I did there?)
