It's a fascinating story, one that deserves some limelight in a space often littered with higher profile stories of a similar ilk, but despite having its heart in the right place and some emotionally charged moments, Matthew Rosen's film is too soapy and melodramatic too really do this story full justice. Quezon, who through the goodness of his heart worked with his trusted team of servants and countrymen to shelter 1000's of refugee Jews that were escaping persecution in the Nazi occupied lands of Europe before the heat of WW2 properly began.
The newest addition to the World War 2 cinematic library is Quezon's Game, a low-budget affair that tells that non-mainstream true story of Philippine President Manuel L. with the cinematic landscape in particular featuring an array of worthy stories that have been showcased for audiences through the medium of film. The various events and occurrences leading up to and during World War 2 have left us all with countless stories of heroism, human kindness and sacrifice and unbelievable feats that all deserve to be remembered.
