Nuremberg

It has been three years since the most important Nazi leaders had already been tried. This trial is about 4 judges who used their offices to conduct Nazi sterilization and cleansing policies. Retired American judge, Dan Haywood has a daunting task ahead of him. The Cold War is heating up and no one wants any more trials as Germany, and Allied governments, want to forget the past. But is that the right thing to do is the question that the tribunal must decide.

Les carnets secrets de NurembergRéalisateur: Jean-Charles Deniau et Stéphane Khémis Mêlant captation contemporaines et images d’archives, l’image proposée est de fait fluctuante. Néanmoins, l’ensemble est très satisfaisant et les extraits d’archives qui ont été retenus s’intègrent parfaitement. Au final, qualitativement, le documentaire est assez bien servi. Disposant d’une seule et unique piste sonore française, la bande son proposée par cette édition est très satisfaisante. Sans fausse note, elle sert le film et restitue avec dynamisme le commentaire off, censé restituer les pensées du docteur Léon Goldensohn.

The Nuremberg trials started in 1945 and marked a milestone in the establishment of international law. The images of high-ranking Nazis in the dock are seared into our collective memory.

'Der Marsch zum Führer' (The March to the Führer) is a Nazi propaganda film released in 1940. It depicts the nationwide march of Hitler Youth (HJ) to Nuremberg for the Nazi Party Rally. Unlike the earlier Leni Riefenstahl Nuremberg documentaries, it doesn't focus on the Party congress itself, or on Nazi leaders, who are not shown until the very end of the film. Instead, it follows HJ boys from various parts of Nazi Germany beginning their journey, being taken in by helpful families on the way, and marching through cities in formation, saluting and waving the swastika banner.

Testimony from witnesses, survivors and Nazis themselves reveals the truth about the mass executions carried out by the Third Reich's Einsatzgruppen.

This film, Leni Riefenstahl’s documentary of the 1933 Nazi Party rally was thought lost for almost 70 years. Digitally remastered and enhanced with English subtitles, this little known epic was as ground-breaking as her later Triumph of the Will. Extremely rare, limited pressing.

Stanley Kramer followed his Oscar-winning Judgment at Nuremberg with this sobering investigation of American greed. Ah, who are we kidding? It’s a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World, about a group of strangers fighting tooth and nail over buried treasure, is the most grandly harebrained movie ever made, a pileup of slapstick and borscht-belt-y one-liners performed by a nonpareil cast, including Milton Berle, Sid Caesar, Ethel Merman, Mickey Rooney, Spencer Tracy, Jonathan Winters, and a boatload of other playing-to-the-rafters comedy legends. For sheer scale of silliness, Kramer’s wildly uncharacteristic film is unlike any other, an exhilarating epic of tomfoolery.
