While these documentaries are enjoyable and do provide a great insight into historical events, it must always be kept in mind that there is always an element of propaganda in them. Germany lost WW2 so of course every documentary aired in the western world tries to paint a picture of ultimate evil of Nazi Germany. The same is for Soviet Russia. Just remember that these documentaries are made hinting to the the viewer that our current system is the best and all others are evil.

@CaptainPugwash2008 doubleplusgood newspeak. Pugwash bellyfeel doublethink.

i know this has been asked before but maybe by now someone may have an answer. What is the song that is played at 10:00. It's not the Rienzi overture but I figure it is a Wagner piece. I would really like to know, thank you.

[Prometheo1]

@malloy12321 It might not be in the Rienzi overture, but it's probably from some other part of the opera.

If you find out otherwise, please post here.

The film makes more sense if you've studied the huge body of historical analysis regarding Germany, Europe, & the rise of Nazism.

I don't understand how a documentary on the aesthetics & underlying belief system of Nazi leaders can be "dangerously one-sided".

[nikita2332]

Thanks very much for posting this. Perhaps the best documentary i have seen on nazi Germany. Its' amazing how evil can be interlaced with goodness, how Nazism is so very seductive and opulls on a persons heart strings.

@notitbros There are plenty of legitimate questions about what happened on 9-11. But saying there were no planes, only holograms, is far from objective.

Islam today is carrying on the National Socialist enterprise. See if you can discover how many Nazis escaped justice in Nuremberg and moved to the Middle East. Thousands of German descendants are found in the "Palestinian" movement.

In Israel, it's easy to see how NSDAP propaganda is used in the Islamic media, political, & education system.

@adripipo Why?

[Prometheo1]

@Trevor5888 Probably from Wagner's Rienzi.

You can find the entire opera on the Internet. Some excerpts are on YouTube.

[Trevor5888]

Does anyone know the name of the piece that begins at 9:50?

@Prometheo1

It's obviously an insidious work of propaganda aimed at smearing the Baroque and Classical revival movements.

[Carpediem8110101]

One of the best objective documentaries about National Socialism from their eternal allied enemies.

@illbetilbake I know this reply is two years late but this is part of a larger series, and this is the aesthetics/art/culture portion.

I am no racist nor am I am fascist but this period of art in history is my favorite.
