Freedom Writers and Triumph of the Will

We watched the film The Freedom Writers Diary with Hilary Swank. Interesting. Based on a true story. About racial conflicts in an american high school. Recommendable.

We watched Triumph of the will, a a nazi propaganda film from the 1930`s. Such long sequences on soldiers marching, and how town avenues, roads and town squares were thick with crowds, watching the german soldiers and Hitler. The film was made before Germany plunged inte second world war. Interesting. But boring in the long run. But for the sake of knowledge, the film is rather recommendable - how propaganda was used to move a whole nation to hate the Jews and start the holocaust.
