rather disturbing insight into hitler's life through his own home movies.  i'm not sure what i make of it - i'm intrigued by the story of the search for them and the finding of them, but disturbed by the idyllic scenes of the movies themselves. it does make one understand hannah arendt's banality of evil all the more.
