Christabel
A German lawyer
under Hitler expresses the facts as plainly as possible, in words that echo
Powell & Pressburger’s The Life and Death of Colonel Blimp as well
as Carol Reed’s The Man Between, “when your country has fallen into the
hands of criminals and gangsters, it is like shouting through the bars of a prison
cell, is it not?”
Ravensbrück
figures in the account, from the memoirs of a young British lady who married a
German lawyer (colleague of the speaker above), one of the participants in the
July 20th escapade and subsequently sent to that concentration camp.
A very great
film, “A Film by Dennis Potter”.
