The Rabbit is Me had gracefully risen from its 25-year sleep after it was banned in 1965 and tagged as a "security threat" to the former GDR.
I'm really impressed at how this film has bravely tackled the once-taboo issue of questionable criminal justice system in East Germany, and how it fought the severe imposition of censorship that resulted to several revisions on the script.
The story is biting and not dragging unlike other several DEFA films I've seen. The actors are good; Angelika Waller's (Maria Morzeck) performance is amazing. The technical style is impressive considering that this film was shot in the 60's. (It introduced several innovations like the use of a hand-held tape recorder).
Although I've seen some loopholes in the story and questionable continuity in some scenes, "The Rabbit Is Me" gained my respect.
I'll give this film an 8!
