4.0 out of 5 stars Grainy, January 16, 2008

This review is from: Nazi Concentration Camps/ Nuremburg Trials (DVD)

Perhaps it is just as well that this is grainy and sometimes out of focus, because the scenes are so horrifying. The documentary was made by the U.S. Government as an overview of what American soldiers found when they liberated Nazi concentration camps. It would have been extremely difficult to fake any of the scenes.

I've talked with soldiers who were there, who took pictures and listened to the pleas of the living. They also smelled the camps, and that cannot be conveyed in this grainy DVD. Still, it is bad enough.

This is not a comprehensive or in-depth depiction, but it is as much as I can stand to watch. How anyone could deny that the Holocaust happened boggles the mind.

This is a very graphic video but it's an important work historically speaking because it reminds us not to forget what happened in the holocaust and why it must never happen again.

2.0 out of 5 stars Rather dissappointing..., October 5, 2011

This review is from: Nazi Concentration Camps/ Nuremburg Trials (DVD)

I am a fan of WWII documentaries and this one on the Nazi Concentration Camps was a real letdown. It has a great deal of footage from the camps, but its very poorly organized, and looks like it was produced in the 1950's. The narration is so bad I just turned the sound down - not topical at all and presents no lessons whatsoever. I would highly recommend the PBS series called "Memories of the Camps" over this patchwork DVD that looks like it was put together in someone's basement - not any real studio.
