A film based on William L. Shirer experiences during 1933-1940 while he was working as a journalist in Germany.
I think it was quite good if we talk about the film pointing out his story.
But I just hated that they very badly coloured the black and white films they used. [img]graemlins/no.gif[/img]
And there were several minor inaccuracies I could notice:
-William Shirer is talking to general Von Fritsch, commander in chief of the Army (they said Armed Forces, there was not such a thing back then) during Nuremberg's Party Rally in 1934. He was wearing a Pour le Mérite (which he was never awarded) and his epoulettes were a Generalmajor's...
-William Shirer is interviewed by Hermann Göring, which I have to say was IDENTICAL to the real one. Excellent in that point. However, Göring was wearing Generalmajor epoulettes as well as a Knight's Cross with Oakleaves... Göring never received such award and even if he had, he wouldn't have received it in 1937...
But I do recommend this film.
