4.0 out of 5 stars compelling drama; Lee Remick in a superb performance, February 6, 2005

This review is from: Of Pure Blood [VHS] (VHS Tape)

OF PURE BLOOD is a compelling drama detailing the horrific ramifications of the Nazis' Lebensborn programme.

Lee Remick plays Alicia Browning, a successful New York casting director, who learns that her son (living in Germany) has been mysteriously killed. She gets another shock when she discovers that he fathered a daughter.

Alicia travels to Germany, and uncovers the horrible truth: her granddaughter is embroiled in a revival of the 'Lebensborn' programme, used by the Nazis' during WW2 as a way of breeding perfect Aryan children (the master race). When Alicia discovers that she, too, was a product of the Lebensborn programme, she decides to smuggle her granddaugher out of Germany.

Fine, well-written thriller/drama co-starring Patrick McGoohan, Gottfried John, Richard Munch, Katharina Bohm, Edith Schneider and Carolyn Nelson.

Good Lee Remick film that is not in print. It is only available on VHS. The plotline is about racism towards people ethnically different from the white aryan race. It challenges people to examine their own beliefs. Lee Remick in the film is traumatised to realize she herself has racist ways and is moved to change the way she views other people.
