The Wrong Word
11 March 2012 | by lakerschris – See all my reviews

They should take the word infamous off the poster and out of the summary because this is and will always be the best documentary ever made. People who study film in college this is the first film they study because it was a historical moment in film history. This documentary was made by a female in 1934 which was unheard of in that time period which shows you that we were more sexist back in 1934 then the Nazi's were and yet they are the so called bad guys. It was also made with over 100 camera's and was filmed 5 years before the war even took placed and yet it is banned in Germany only because they do not want it to happen again which was the most foolish thing that the German government could of ever done.
