True crime

A Film Unfinished

Crit
OK, I'm convinced: I'd been thinking Nazis had been getting kind of a bum rap all these years, but after absorbing this excruciating, brutal wallop to the solar plexus, I believe they really were right bastards. I mean, it's not enough you murder millions of people, but you treat film without the proper respect, too?

There are, I suppose, many possible criticisms of this film, not least of which the apparent surprise that documentarians can have agendas, and that evil documentarians might have evil agendas. But if after seeing all you see here you aren't so overwhelmed with revulsion by the images captured in the titular film that you suspend your critical faculties, you've a stronger stomach than I.
