Not taking anything away from her enthusiasm for life and liberty. I just read that she left Germany as early as 1930 and was a US citizen by 1937 so it it seemed a bit safer distance. I would give both high marks (pardon the pun). I don't profess to know as much about her however.
I am just more intrigued with military history than Hollywood. It is always entertaining to see a movie that portrays the heros and scoundrels of war as well as the the awesome machinery. Personal drama is fine, but I also enjoy the technical aspects and I used to build models of all of the old planes and tanks, etc. when I was much younger. I can't imagine having to deal with the social struggle there at the time or the horror of the reality.
