Loosely based on the 2014 novel of the same name by Martin Amis, British-born writer and director Jonathan Glazer’s “The Zone of Interest” is indeed a rarity: an art-house Holocaust film. It is more than that, of course, but the chilly, austere photography, ambient, dissonant score, and minimalist, emotionally detached dialogue suggests Terrence Malick by way of Stanley Kubrick, and a half-dozen other 1950s Western European neo-realists.
