The cynicism of unscrupulous killers. Unfortunately, the twenty-first century has to deal with neat two-word scum with the same suit and uniform.

Putin and his cronies. Unnecessary? these kinds of movies are never superfluous.

Astonishingly truthful portrayal of the infamous Wannsee meeting. It feels like a documentary with its almost meticulous and clinical approach. Heydrich and Eichmann are the best known of the mixed bag. But apparently it wasn't easy for the others to determine who was who either. Some of the top officials present sat far away from the horror behind their desks in Berlin or Munich. Yet they were also allowed to sit down at this table to solve the Jewish problem.

Where the first part does not get any further than naming the problem and contempt for the Jews, the meeting shifts up a gear after the break. You also feel the tension build when it turns out that not everyone is on the same page or if they think a little further (Dr. stuckart). Suggestions are very coolly raised. It shouldn't cost too much (11 million bullets that might be better used on the battlefield) and it could all be handled more humanely. More humane for the German executioner, admittedly. It is also remarkable to note that Höss, the commander of Auschwitz, was really - just like the camp - relatively unknown at that time.

Die Wannseekonferenz has become a commendable film, but is perhaps less accessible to the general public. I myself have already looked fascinated. Great remake with excellent acting.

Meticulous reconstruction of the "work consultation" of Nazi leaders about the final solution of the Jewish question. The cold, heartless way in which this issue is spoken of gradually gives the viewer an uneasy feeling, which only gets worse. Not very special as a film in itself, but all the more so as a history lesson.
