A comedy with Adolf Hitler? Does "too soon" still apply?
Maybe it does, since Taika Waititi couldn't find anyone to take the role, and so had to play it himself in his own movie!
Let's check out Jojo Rabbit.
From Google:
"Jojo (Roman Griffin Davis) is a lonely German boy who discovers that his single mother (Scarlett Johansson) is hiding a Jewish girl (Thomasin McKenzie) in their attic. Aided only by his imaginary friend -- Adolf Hitler (Taika Waititi) -- Jojo must confront his blind nationalism as World War II continues to rage on."
This was a surprisingly well-acted, touching, and funny film!
Taika is reaching (has reached?) that level of filmmaker who you just trust to do the right thing, no matter the property.
VERY WATCHABLE.
