"Nuremberg: The Nazis Facing Their Crimes" is a curiously low-key condensation of the Nuremberg trial, culled almost exclusively from courtroom footage filmed under the supervision of John Ford (now digitally remastered), which fascinates with its dry avoidance of drama -- those rare moments of emotional intensity threatening to tear apart the layers of judicial dispassion in which the tribunal swathed itself. Pic's procedural emphasis first appears irrelevant to its avowed subject, yet the red tape-clogged, precedent-setting proceedings manifest a stubborn will toward clarity that feels strangely appropriate. Rewarding to patient viewers, "Nuremberg" should find a stable berth on television.

Those drawn to the film by its subtitle will doubtless be disappointed by the lack of concentrated focus on the reactions, or absence of reactions, of the SS defendants in the dock. But in fact, French director Christian Delage has a hidden agenda that, in retrospect, clarifies the thrust of his 90-minute edit.
As a historian, Delage is obsessed with the growing role of reproduced images in shaping history. In this light, the emphasis on the myriad cameras recording the trial as well as the documentaries-within-documentaries screened in the courtroom (showing concentration camps as well as the slaughter of civilians and POWs in Russia) begins to make structural sense.

At the same time, the trial is inseparable from these projected images -- which, moved up on the docket to spark flagging interest in the slow-moving proceedings, shocked the courtroom, and sent figures filing out in silence once the lights came back on.

Contrary to the depiction in Hollywood's Spencer Tracy-Judy Garland starrer "Judgment at Nuremberg," testimony by victims was surprisingly sparse, as it seemed to discomfit members of the tribunal. A female survivor, mastering her emotion as she adamantly recounts what she witnessed at Auschwitz (her account culminating with the screams of children thrown into ovens alive), is interrupted by a judge before she can move on to her experiences at Ravensbruch, on the supposition of redundancy. (The witness dryly disagrees: One was a functional death camp, the other worked people to death.)

Testimony from Nazis immune from indictment proposes horror of a different stripe: One calmly remorseless SD leader responsible for killing 90,000 Russian Jews makes fine distinctions between shooting them up close or at a distance.

Consummately narrated by Christopher Plummer with silky gravitas, the documentary also highlights the reaction of a stunned world to the atrocities uncovered a mere six months earlier -- judges' and prosecutors' ringing indictments echoed by citations from the packed rows of international press (a young, mustachioed Walter Cronkite in their midst). Yet in its methodical matter-of-factness, the documentary cannot but reveal the gap between the vastness of the crime and the narrowness of its punishment.

Bilderbooger, you are worse than ignorant.
Thank you!
@rambam1776: That is the most well-written rebuttal I've ever read (and probably every will read) on the pirate bay!

@Bilderbooger: A high number of ignorants doesn't make the ignorance go away, it just makes the problem bigger.
By the way, it might be interesting to know that this (I believe) is the footage as shot by the Soviets.

The American and the Soviet lawyers were working together during the Nuremburg trials, and both sides were shooting film to document everything.

The American version, however, was shortly after put on ice as the government - now embarking on their communist scare tactics - didn't want to depict this coworking of Americans with scary Soviet communists.

The American version has recently been released (actually that's how I found this torrent, as I was searching for the other one).

It's called "Nuremburg - Its Lesson for Today" and features the only known actual amateur footage (shot by an SS officer) of early testing of gas chambers on unknowing Jewish concentration camp victims.
