The Nazis had been in power since 1933. These kids are probably younger than 10. It’s 1943. They grew up in a totalitarian dictatorship. No independent schools, no independent newspapers, propaganda at every corner of every village. Gestapo, the secret state police, capable of targeting anyone they wanted or knew about. If a young German child in Nazi Germany doesn’t say this stuff when being greeted in this manner during this period, it is very likely to be deaf. Even though slightly more than half of the population never voted for the NSDAP and not everyone who did was a fierce, fanatical party member, nearly all children born during the reign of the Nazis that were old enough to understand basic concepts, would have given this response.

I had to stop it after the flamethrower scene. I just burst into a violent fit of tears. The scene stunned me; my reaction stunned me. But I had to take about half an hour to recover enough to keep watching the film. I adored it, but I don’t think I could go through it again.

[@robertkees6048]

Don't you just wish that scene was longer? Such a tasty moment, I wish it could just go on and on and on. I also love the Clooney scene talking about Sids Deli in NY, and how some day he'll read on page 18 about a low level Nazi being hanged for his crimes, and then he'll never think about him again. It's so low key, and another tasty scene I wish could just go on and on.
