SARAH'S KEY is based on the novel of the same name, which was quite popular, although this movie did not get much of a release. It is mostly foreign-language, which probably did not help. I did not read the book, but it seemed watching it that the German WWII story was much more interesting than the contemporary story that is intercut. My wife tells me that the book suffered from the same problem, including the fact that the last 15 minutes or so of the movie are terrible. However, there's enough of interest to people who like the WWII era that it is probably worth a rental.
