RealLiveClaude This documentary explores the rise to power of an anonymous Austrian painter, gone to war, frustrated by its country's defeat and its social injustice, and by the way of words fuelled by insane megalomania, became a warlord whose ideals would spurn crimes of all sorts, including mass extermination and war...From archives files from newsreels and mostly Nazi propaganda films, this is an insight of the rise of what was an absolute tyrant and dictator, who ruled with an iron fist, and led to World tragedy, one that will be never forgotten.Excellent narration by French actor Mathieu Kassovitz, a piece of history to understand that words fuelled by violent actions can lead to War.Not to be compared to the TV movie "Hitler: the Rise of Evil", which was dramatized, this documentary is the real account, and chilling to the bone for crude images...

curt9733 lancetb1349: You use the term "right wing" in reference to conservative politics in the United States, not conservative politics around the world and in a different time period. The extreme conservative policies of Nazi Germany are not comparable to the conservative policies in the present day United States. The same is true of liberalism. Therefore, it is a fallacy to describe things like Nazism with a word pertaining to U.S. politics. In addition, you fail to recognize the different aspects of each position: economic, social, philosophical, etc. Both right and left wing groups of the thirties consisted of ideals which were in some ways similar to each other, such as totalitarian dictatorship, and oppression of dissident and ethnic groups. Watch this documentary for its historical value, not an invalid superimposition of present day politics. It offers insights into a little understood period in the development of Nazism.

neil-arsenal Like me, you probably find Hitler and his minions abhorant. However, there is a morbid fascination in many as to how he came to hold the German population in the palm of his hand.He used fear and intimidation in the extreme but he is shown here to be clever in his use of manipulation.Most of the movie is in colour (added using modern technology) and the effect is excellent.Get it.you won't regret it!Well worth a watch!
