Dom-guzzlers and plebians, did you see these films about the fateful meeting that set down the basics of the final solution?There is quite a striking contrast in the interpretation of the event. Conspiracy shows a tense, hate-filled gathering that was filled with outbursts, acts of conscience and intimidation. Whereas, Wannsee had the near schmoozy coziness of a group of corporate VP's sitting around the conference table hashing out something the "boss" wanted done.
Well, Hollywood vs. Europa, whose adaptation came closer?
I vote for Wannsee . . . .
Set down those flutes and Lites and sound off.
