An interesting view into nazi-propaganda, 2 February 2002
5/10
Author: Nicholas Uldbjerg (nicholas@uldbjerg.com) from Aarhus, Denmark

People might argue that this movie is full of lies, and thus have no value because its untruthfulness. I find the film very interesting because it is a opportunity for us to learn how things not always is how they seem to be. We must have in mind that the common people of that time didn't have the same horizon as people have now a day. Therefore it was easier to convince them.

I see the film as a reminder to not always trust what we are told.
