DVD Reviews of Auschwitz - Inside the Nazi State
DVD Review: must see so as not to forget !
Summary: 5 Stars
true depiction of Auschwitz, my spouse having spent three (winter) months there,then was sent to Mauthausen (Gusen).DVD Review: Very thorough
Summary: 5 Stars
As a student of the Holocaust, I have read and seen countless books, videos and movies. This is by far the most thorough. It is masterfully narrated by Linda Hunt and the atrocities of the Nazis come alive through careful depiction by an amazing cast. Through the use of actual plans, computer-generated models show the inner working of the most infamous concentration camp the Nazis had-Auschwitz. This is a must see for anyone who is even remotely interested in the Holocaust.DVD Review: Auschwitz - Inside The Nazi State
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a most informative documentary, I was most impressed with the thoroughness that was discussed.DVD Review: Tne Mechanics of Mass Murder
Summary: 5 Stars
This fascinating documentary records the evolution of a collection of camps known to most of us as simply Auschwitz. It contrasts some of the other camps, but it is primarily just about Auschwitz and how and from where the prisoners came to be there. The documentary details how what started out as a facility primarily for political prisoners and forced labor grew through trial and error into an efficient killing machine.
Why I rated this with five stars: The focus on the managers who made it happen rather than the top level of the Nazi party; the interviews with the perpetrators; the explanation of the variety of victims sent there, and the discussion of the resistance and/or complicity of the non-Nazi governments.
I have been to the Bergen-Belsen Memorial -- it is chilling how little space is required to bury 2,000 or 5,000 or an unknown number of thousands of bodies (some of whom were transported there from Auschwitz at the end). If, as Eisenhower feared, anyone reading this ever encounters a person who does believe the truth of the Nazi policy of mass murder, make them watch this and the PBS DVD, "Frontline -- Memory of the Camps."
DVD Review: Leaving Lucy.
Summary: 3 Stars
Lucy Camden's gotta be in the back of Bev's mind as she belts out these country tunes. It's quite a good CD: fresh, modest and honest. Everything a country singer's debut album should be. Heaven On Earth Down Here is quite clearly the winner on this CD but there are other songs certainly worth listening to. Beverley is one talented gal.
Description of Auschwitz - Inside the Nazi State
Studio: Warner Home Video Release Date: 07/18/2006More than any previous documentary about the Holocaust, Auschwitz: Inside the Nazi State reveals the inner workings of the Nazi implementation of Hitler's infamous "final solution." Drawing on the latest academic discoveries, this remarkable BBC series presents a wide-ranging, meticulously researched biography of the titular "killing factory" and its evolution into a highly efficient location for industrialized extermination of well over one million Jews, gypsies, and other so-called "mongrel races" between 1940 and 1945. From "Surprising Beginnings" to "Liberation & Revenge," the six-chapter program chronicles the gradual process that escalated into the Holocaust, focusing its expansive European timeline on the detailed movements of preeminent (and highly corruptible) Holocaust engineers like Heinrich Himmler, Rudolf H?ss, and "death doctor" Josef Mengele. Through painstakingly authentic reenactments of crucial meetings including the Wannsee Conference (where the "final solution" was secretly devised), we see and hear the Nazi thought processes, built on virulent hatred and bigotry, that "justified" mass murder on an unprecedented scale.
Subtle but exacting use of computer-animated effects allows three-dimensional exploration of newly discovered architectural plans and buildings long-ago destroyed, revealing the transformation of Auschwitz as World War II progressed. Along with rare archival footage, thorough documentation, and frank testimony from Holocaust survivors and Nazi perpetrators (not all of them penitent about their crimes), these programs make expert use of commanding narration by Oscar?-winning actress Linda Hunt, who brings depth and gravitas to a grim litany of sobering facts and figures. The result is an all-encompassing portrait of Auschwitz unlike anything seen before, masterfully written and produced by Laurence Rees with equal parts tenacity, intelligence, and integrity, informed by an overriding sense of moral outrage that is entirely appropriate to the history being examined. It's a remarkable achievement, as important as Shoah as a definitive exploration of one of the darkest chapters in human history. --Jeff Shannon
