Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe film had a difficult genesis. It was originally financed in 1973 by BBC, Polytel, and a private company based in London, Visual Programme Systems (VPS), the latter of whom had wanted the film to dwell heavily on America's involvement in Vietnam and France's involvement in Algeria. After completing rough cuts, VPS was dismayed at Ophüls work (particularly his excessive leaning on the Nuremberg Trials and Nazi involvement) and tried to remove him as director. Hamilton Fish V organized a group of investors who were able to buy back the rights to the film from VPS and allow Ophüls to complete it.

Featured review
Marcel Ophüls is a master!
Ophüls brilliantly connects the atrocities of the Nazis to countless American Military Interventions. Although this was produced by Paramount, it's quite hard to find in the United States. Not surprised!
