While she remained an unrepentant Nazi sympathiser to the end, it's a real shame that such a major film-making talent was wasted on that God-awful regime
Her artistic and ideological "tarring and feathering" aside; Willens and Olympiad remain masterpieces of propaganda filmmaking; she would've been a force to be reckoned with had she crossed over to the world of postwar advertising m'thinks, let alone had she been let loose on Hollywood
Leni, right or wrong you did it Your Way, and I admire that. Now added to the list of people we don't have to kick around anymore...
She must've been made of strong stuff to survive the 101-year roller coaster ride her life must have been
