Nazi Protagonists
by quietgiant2 | created - 05 May 2015 | updated - 2 months ago | PublicInteresting movie absent: Hitler's Mountain of Stolen Art(2013), documentary by Petra Dormman.
Of course, we did not include films made by the Germans during the National Socialist period, due the reason it offer a very biased view..
However, if you wish, you can find them on the list
http://www.imdb.com/list/ls000033422/
Even though it has been so long, the Germans
They rarely talk about the tragic times of the Third Reich, but when they do, they often win international prizes.
Thus, The Drum, The Boat and the Fall were films of great success in the whole world.
