Cabaret movie: "Tomorrow Belongs To Me"
From Wikipedia:
The rise of the Nazis and their increasing influence on German society is dramatically demonstrated in the beer garden scene: A boy - only his face seen - sings to the seated guests what first seems an innocent lyrical song about the beauties of nature. This gradually shifts to the strident "Tomorrow Belongs To Me" as the camera shifts to show that the boy is wearing a brown Nazi uniform and lifts his hand in the Nazi straight arm salute. One by one, nearly all guests in the beer garden (except a bewildered old man - or an elderly veteran who has seen this before) get up and voluntarily join in the singing and saluting.

war and not being attacked. phones being tapped. the public manipulated by a sinister leader. your emails and all your files spied upon. and if you`re not with this leader then you are with the enemy. thank God bush is gone!!!
When compared to today's obamazombies, these Germans pale in comparison. I feel like the bewildered old man. I'm disgusted that Americans have become so easily manipulated by the marxist in the white house. God help us all!
a brilliant piece of filmmaking that takes voluminous historical analysis on how an entire nation was seduced by the evil that is naziism and explains it in less than 3 minutes.
Great movie scene - the way the boy is so beautiful, and the song itself so seductive. It comments highly effectively on the emotional appeal of Nazism, to only some Germans, of course, as is shown by the uneasy old man who doesn't take part. Lovely song of course: clever the way its sunny romanticism is in contrast with the other music in the film.
Forget the words and their Nazi overtones - do please forget the words and those overtones - but listen to that lovely voice. The voice of a young man, powerful, tenor and tuneful. I do hope that it wasn't dubbed. I do hope that he was selected for these scenes because he could sing and that that is really his own voice and that he went on to sing greater roles.
This scene is exactly about the Nazi overtones and the words!!! God, not the voice of the kid (Though he's goo, and I wish he did well as well). This scene is of great artistic and dramatic depth, and we have to appreciate that. Even in music, it means nothing if you forget the words, drama and feeling.
