Inside the Third Reich
(1982) (TV)
"Inside the Third Reich" tells the story of Albert
Speer, Adolf Hitler's personal architect and reportedly "only true friend". The
film examines Speer's rise from obscurity within the Nazi Party ranks leading to
his days of fame in 1930s when he was responsible for building several Nazi
monuments. The second portion of the film focuses on Speer's tenure as Minister
of Armaments during the Second World War, where Speer was one of the primary
motivators in keeping Hitler's war machine alive. Speer's final destiny, also
depicted in the film, leads to accusations of war crimes resulting in a 25 year
prison sentence. |
