Downfall

And this week's Friday night movie has been.....Downfall!

I recall when this film originally came out: it was subject to a lot of controversy due it's approach of humanizing Hitler. However such controversy seems inconsequential years later, when one considers the life this film gained as a YouTube meme.

Make no mistake: This was not an easy movie to watch. What made it so challenging to watch was we are watching the collapse of government: Where everyone is facing impending doom and/or getting out (in more ways than one). Still, the effort put into the art direction and the historical accuracy is impressive and the acting is frighteningly accurate - it's easy to mistake it for the real thing.
So yeah, good movie
