Name:	Double-Headed Eagle: Hitler's Rise to Power 1918-1933 (DVD)
Product Code:	6310314874
Description:	By Lutz Becker
Product Detail:	Rather than offering a contemporary interpretation of history through narration and interviews, filmmaker Lutz Becker allows the disturbing saga of German fascism to unfold on its own terms. The result is a kaleidoscopic view of the German people from 1918-1933, suffering the economic and human devastation of World War I, experiencing the rebirth of its culture and economy during the Weimar Republic, and allowing its festering racism, paranoia and lust for military strength to spread and become embraced as a system of political beliefs. In The Double-Headed Eagle, one catches glimpses of Adolf Hitler when he was little more than a young political enthusiast, at the time when the Nazi party was the domain of a handful of extremists. The most chilling aspect of The Double-Headed Eagle is the gradual, almost invisible growth of the party over the course of the film, concluding with the fiery celebration of the Nazi assumption of power in 1933.
