The film is a shattering experience fueled by Jentsch's electrifying performance.
Rock solid performances by up-and-coming German actress Julia Jentsch as Sophie and Alexander Held ("Downfall") as Mohr along with an excellent cast of supporting players insure that no one mistakes this for a lifeless docu-drama.
The effect of this scene is so powerful that I leaned forward like a jury member, wanting her to get away with it so I could find her innocent.
Sophie Scholl has a certain quiet dignity that wins its audience popularity honestly.
The film holds us rapt not through narrative suspense but through the eerie and demanding spectacle of profound moral courage, of a powerless good person in collision with absolute evil.
