I wouldn’t call ‘The Keeper’ a great film, but certainly a good one with one hell of a story to tell. War tales are a dime a dozen, but this is certainly a unique story and the first I’ve heard that incorporates the world’s game. I can’t imagine there’ll be another like it in the future. - Jess Fenton Read Jess' full article... https://www.maketheswitch.com.au/article/review-the-keeper-the-true-story-of-the-nazi-goalkeeper-and-the-english-girl
