Great movie, I think
6 November 2018
I would say this was a great movie but I am not sure if that was a good word for it. It kept me nailed to the screen, involved and attached emotionally but not amused cause I felt anger and repulsion Back in the time I read Hitler's books 'My new order' and parts of 'Mein Kampf'. I wanted to know what was the motive of such a person to do things he did to the other people. And then I noticed one part of the first book mentioned where he said: 'National-socialism is a very hard thing to establish in practice. It's everything but easy but it's feasible. USA is a country that is a living proof of that. It is a place where National-socialism has been established in its full extent. That's why USA is a very dangerous opponent. Racism working in practice as an extension to slavery, which means white people taking all the vital positions in society justifying so-called democracy by superficial freedom of the other races, wisely exterminated non-white races, experiments on living people, legal persecution of homosexuals etc.' In further text Hitler adores and fears USA. I think he would be thrilled by the fact that America didn't change long time after the war. In this movie actors are so brilliant that they depict and present this in a way that the one couldn't imagine. I grew up in a society where everyone could marry everyone and so were my grandfathers. As a matter a fact, it was kind of trendy to marry a person of another race so before I came to the USA I couldn't imagine such a madness. If I can compare what I saw ten years ago when I was living there and what I saw in this movie, I would say that not much changed except greater hypocrisy everywhere. This 'superficial' freedoms are still 'superficial' but I haven't seen waiters other than white working in Santa Monica CA and I don't think they are in Manhattan NY either. Companies I worked for seldom have any high positioned managers but white and even the public buses that have no more glass walls or bars in the middle are still dividing the races. It seems that black people don't want to share space with the white in the front of the bus (and you can't blame them for that) while white are too scared to go back. So even after the wall there is a huge wall. Of course, instead of breaking these walls the USA is pointing fingers in other directions to invent or make up the racism stories elsewhere. I have no more patience to watch movies about WWII cause I can't stand injustice on the mass scale but if you can and wanna be nailed to the screen, then watch this movie that you won't forget easily.
