# 1572 Nuremberg on imdb:

A WWII psychiatrist evaluates Nazi leaders before the Nuremberg trials, growing increasingly obsessed with understanding evil as he forms a disturbing bond with Hermann Göring.

Tough subject and it is difficult to rate it, yes, it had some additions that might have been added without factual background - hard to say, but some details seemed unlikely to have happened this way and were added for film dramatic reasons. I cannot say, but the way the doc went into HG's (I dread to write the full name!) cell unguarded looked unreal. The meeting with his wife and daughter might have happened, but I have doubts here as well...

The other problem was the well-known faces that always gave the film a too strong film feeling for me and diverted me slightly from the reality of the past... That problem focussed on the doc and HG mostly...

The real documentary scenes of the KZs was tough, but important, this should never be forgotten and not be repeated in a similar form - that warning was strongly issued and we should know which countries were addressed here, 2 of them were among the 4 countries behind the trials.

Despite the minor flaws I give the film a 2 and hope people will watch and understand what must never happen again...

Hallo allerseits,
für mich hätte es diesen Film nicht gebraucht, zumal die Nürnberger Kriegsverbrecherprozesse bei mir in der Schule in epischem Format Thema waren – aber machen Leuten muß man wohl vor Augen halten, daß Faschismus eine schlechte Idee ist. Von daher war „Nuremberg“ für mich eine halbe Stunde zu lang und fokussierte für mich zu sehr auf den Psychologen Douglas Kelley, aber insgesamt schon in Ordnung. Deswegen eine „Drei“ von mir.
