Nuremberg
Watched: Nuremberg 🍿
I took my birthday off and saw this. Based on the book The Nazi and the Psychiatrist by Jack El-Hai, I expect it should get some attention for the Oscars. You don’t have to see between the frames to get its warnings for the political situation today. The movie’s last scenes emphasize that this could happen anywhere.
Rami Malek and Russel Crowe are fantastic in it. Colin Hanks is also excellent, but I’m always pulled out of what I’m watching when I see him, just mesmerized by how much he looks and sounds like his dad. I was also happy to see Wrenn Schmidt, Margo from For All Mankind.
Does this need to be seen in the theatre? Probably not, but I was glad to have the focus that a theatre movie demands. There are a lot of dark scenes in small rooms, with people talking, and watching it at home without getting distracted by other screens and stuff would have been a challenge.
