Die Wannseekonferenz AKA The Wannsee Conference

Watching this second after having watched Conspiracy is a weird experience. This film seems super realistic and unpolished (not in a bad way) compared to Conspiracy. The most noteworthy is that Conspiracy is full of attractive actors, and I decided that I disliked that about Conspiracy. 

I watched this in the Holocaust class I took and I can't really say that it taught me anything new that the professors didn't go over. Rather, it clarified one thing and that was that the people present were completely  detestable.... Also it seemed to me they didn't know how to get anything done and they were just going around in circles. It's really disturbing to watch. I think since I watched it in German, I felt kind of disgusted and much less sympathetic to the portrayal than I felt when I watched Conspiracy and this is a good thing. I just feel like because Tom Hiddleston (although his role was miniscule), Colin Firth, Kenneth Branagh, Stanley Tucci among others were in Conspiracy, viewers might feel more sympathetic and rationalize the characters they portrayed's actions, which isn't good. I found myself doing that....

Also I really appreciated how this film showed how despise-able Adolf Eichmann really is.
