Review of Süss, the Jew (1940) by Matthew M — 27 Nov 2010
Brilliant*.
Incredibly well-made entertainment movie merged with antisemitism.
The nazi propaganda part stays subtle up until the last scene, though it's omnipresent (especially to today's audiences).
The director as well as the actors did an outstanding job, and made this movie more than it was ever intended to be.
*opinion about the directing/acting work, no judgment of the film's tenor.
