The top secret trial of the Third Reich

This documentary chronicles the assassination attempt made on Adolph Hitler on July 20, 1944 and the subsequent trial of the conspirators. Film footage is used to lay the foundation for the failed conspiracy that perpetrators hoped would bring an end to the war fueled by Nazi propaganda. Scenes of adoring crowds cheering for Hitler are included to remind the viewer that those who resisted his evil machinations were in only a small minority of military officers among the Nazi faithful.

Olympia - Olympia

This filmed documentary of the modern Olympic Games begins with the 1896 games and continues through the 1972 Munich games. The movie makes it clear that the original intent of the Olympic movement has long since been subverted to nationalistic and commercial ends.
