Critiques (1)
Beautiful movie about what kind of beasts people can sometimes be. One of the few American movies - and the first ever, if I'm not mistaken - that took a stand against Nazism. Subsequently, it was banned in Germany. I'm quite surprised that a similar film came out so late because it beautifully shows that it is individuals and the entire nation who suffer from war, and that only a handful of people want to destroy and change the world into ruins.
