I have never
been a fan of using English as a primary language of communication in a movie
that is set in a country where English is not a first language; even more so, in
a period drama. To me, that is where The
Zookeeper’s falls short. There is a dialogue
in the second half that made me cringe. When Antonina Zabinski (Jessica
Chastain) tells Urszula (Shira Haas), “I have always wanthed tu dhraw”.
