Sophie Scholl Review

Author: Unknown // Category:

DUE Monday, March 16th.

Write a review of the movie we watched in class, Sophie Scholl.

Be sure to include:

1.) What you liked and disliked about the film.
2.) Your favorite part.
3.) An overall rating (1-5 stars)
4.) Write an alternate ending to the story.
5.) How did the movie make you feel?
6.) Bonus: Read the actual leaflet written by The White Rose Society and tell me what you think about it. What is the most powerful part of the leaflet? Are their any messages in it that are relevant today? Which ones? Why? I challenge you to read all of the leaflets and really consider how brave and amazing these people were. Consider the freedoms you have and the opportunities these freedoms offer you to speak out, through journalism, on the issues you feel are important. Sophie gave her life to speak the truth. What are you willing to give?
