  • Do a search on you tube for "Lame Immortelle Another Day", some one has set this vid to some great music.

  • Nazi or not Nazi.

    It doesent matter.

  • Although she never formally joined the Nazi Party, she was personally appointed by Hitler to be the party's film executive and was certainly sympathetic to Nazi ideology. The elite Waffen SS troops were Party members, but technically they were separate from the regular German military (the Wehrmacht). In any case, I referred to Leni Riefenstahl as a "Nazi" somewhat facetiously. If she were alive today, I'm sure she'd say something like, "Nazi, schmazi!"

  • Nazis were the German soldiers during WW2. She definitely was not a soldier. Whether she was a supporter or not is another story.

  • It´s a beautiful idea to film beautiful girl, who dances opposite the sea. But unfortunatelly I think that her movements are not natural and that it has not the atmosphere author wanted to put in.

  • Leni Riefenstahl sure was pretty when she was young. For a Nazi, I mean.

    Not much of a dancer, though.
