  • @tucanoman who told you that? better do your research. the movie was never created with that purpose in mind - to be used as propaganda - Leni had total control over every aspect of the movie. it WAS used as propaganda regardless - but that's because it was so well done and so innovative. no one would ever want to use a shitty film for propaganda purposes. plus, jesse owens was one of the stars of the film. hitler would never want that.

  • owens, whoops

  • Actually Germany did really well at the 36 Olympics, the Helms thing is kind of a myth

  • @icamescope Well yeah! The movie, masterful as it is, was made for sinister ends: to show the mastery and heroism of the aryan race. Too bad but Jessie Owens blew that goal right out of the water! I like Vangelis but this music sets exactly the right tone for this incredible propaganda film that pioneered many film techniques unknown at the time..

  • Auch heute noch , der beste Sportfilm aller Zeiten !

  • These inspiting images with Vangelis's music seems to recover some more aliving sense... To or modern ears this music appears quite sinister....
