    I have to admit, that when I visited this house, I took place on Heydrichs seat, it was to apppealing , same as Napoleons bed but thats another story. While I sat there, in total knowledge of what happened in this room, a museum guard appeared and was upset. He asked me, how I dare to sit on this seat and if I dind'nt know about this place. I politely explained to him, that I just want to feel the breath of history and began to recitate some of the words ,wich were spoken in this room. Meanwhile I switched places, according to the speaker of the quotes. He was absolutely stunned and forgave me my intrusion. We stay in contact till today. Your work, dear Alex, is absolutely correct. Splendid like always!

      @@calendarpage - a better film is the 1984 film “Die Wannseekonferenz”. It’s in German with English subtitles. Branagh has a tendency to overplay his parts, IMO. This German film is a more straightforward and the dialog delivery is more cold and calculating, making it more chilling. It’s here on UA-cam - check it out.

    I made this comment on another video about the Wannsee Conference, but I’ll repeat it here:
    When Gerhard Klopfer died in Ulm in 1987, his widow had an obituary printed in the local paper that included the phrase “[he led a] fulfilled life that was to the benefit of all those who came under his sphere of influence”. It caused a scandal in Germany, which I guess is a good sign that later generations were taking these crimes seriously, even if those who committed them did not.

    It was like a snowball effect. The Germans went from a cultural democracy to quickly becoming a totalitarian dictatorship in only a few years. Kinda scary that such people were voted into power but what makes it even scarier is that these people weren't your stereotypical cartoon villains but were actually well educated family oriented people with decent jobs within the government who believed this was important to their country even during a world war where their nation was fighting on two fronts. The effects of the Holocaust actually hurt Germans ability to win the war and the amount of effort the Nazi government put into killing their so called enemies brought a quicker end to the Nazi regime. Propaganda really is dangerous.
