I f you ever get the chance...
This movie is one of the best films on the Holocaust! It is based on the notes from the Wannsee Conference. The film is historically correct and the acting is amazing! I will be doing my first major paper on this film. I never tire of watching it becuase there is so much to it. No guns, no action....just dialogue. Lots of dialogue regarding the Final Solution to the Jewish Question.
I downloaded the Wannsee Protocol and cross-referenced it with the movie. A few times I get a little sick in my stomach, but that's because they talk, banally, about T-4, CO gas and the use of gas chambers. One of the last scenes is Eichmann (Steven Tucci) telling those at the conference that they will soon have the ability to kill 2500 Jews per HOUR...and gives the total figures per day, per week, per year. That's usually when I get queasy.
