Sophie's Choice (1982 - R) "Sophie's Choice" is the beautiful film about one woman's trials through and after the WWII as a woman who survived the Nazi concentration camps only to feel forever doomed thereafter. Escaping to the U.S., Sophie meets and falls in love with the charismatic man who saved her life, Nathan. But from Nathan, and eventually a third party, newcomer Stingo, a Southern writer searching for life's meaning, Sophie hides all of her dark lies and memories that surround her life in Auschwitz; a life that she continually tries to drown out in the love of Nathan and friendship of Stingo. But just as Sophie had to make a painful choice during her stay in Auschwitz, so too will Sophie make another tragic choice in the painful aftermath of her survival of her horrific past; a decision that will forever alter the way Stingo looks at life then on. The cast includes: Meryl Streep, Peter MacNicol, and Kevin Kline. Written and directed by: Alan J. Pakula.
