Less serious and hopefully inoffensive take: If a filmmaker wants to show despicable, deviant and atrocious human behavior on film, have a Nazi do it. Who's gonna say a Nazi would never do that? The "Nazisploitation" subgenre is a strange one.
But, The Damned, which has a new Criterion release, and Salon Kitty introduced one of my favorite actor/screen names of all time - Helmut Berger (ugly American pronunciation, of course. I'll have mine wit cheese.)
