Storyline
Did you know
- GoofsDuring the "Chaos and Consent" segment, the tune "Happy Days Are Here Again" which is associated with drinking (it was FDR's Prohibition-repeal campaign song) is played while showing Hitler raising a glass stein within a crowd of stein-holding pub visitors. The visuals, music, and certainly the narration imply that Hitler might have been a drinker, yet (as cited in non-fiction histories by William Shirer and by Albert Speer) he was a well-known alcohol-abstainer.

The Nazis Were the 20th Century's Ultimate Terrorists
Competently directed by Laurence Rees - "A Warning From History" is an impressive 4-hour presentation the certainly gives the inquisitive viewer a much better understanding as to why the Holocaust actually happened and why Adolf Hitler was able to wield so much power and seduce an entire nation into believing that what they were doing to the Jews was, indeed, right.
Believe me - This first-rate documentary is not only a great history lesson - But, it's powerfully delivered message also warns the viewer that (if given similar circumstances) history has a diabolical way of actually repeating itself.
All-in-all - I recommend this superb documentary very highly to one and all.
