"Triumph of the Will," a documentary showing a Nazi Party rally in Nuremberg in 1935, is considered the best propaganda film of all time. Technically speaking, the movie was perfectly shot and edited and occasionally breathtaking, and if you neglect your historical knowledge and personal views and approach it naively and without prejudice, you will also see how incredibly compelling it is. Brainwashing this skillful is really rarely seen. However, from today's perspective, and knowing everything I know about the actors of this documentary, I cannot ignore the evil and madness rooted in its core, so I cannot force myself to give it more than a seven, though objectively it probably deserves a higher rating.
