"It is true that most--some might even say all--films about the Holocaust focus on the persecution of Jews. The Holocaust was very bad for Jews; this is an immovable fact of history. But Tarantino isn't wrong to suggest that the cinematic depiction of anti-Semitic persecution can become weary­ing over time, particularly for Semites."
