Have you seen the movie Zone of Interest? That scene got me. Actually every scene got me. It’s just a hauntingly good movie.
I was going to see it last weekend, but decided not to… most nazi related movies just piss me off because of the nazis.
This movie is less about being mad at Nazis and more of making you look deep inside yourself and ask if you wouldn’t have done something similar. It’s more about watching regular people live their lives and they just happen to be Nazis who are heavily involved in the Holocaust. A particular scene I think about a lot involves a board room where people are talking about seemingly normal business activities like funding and logistics. Except they’re actually talking about how to build Auschwitz… but it seems eerily similar to any normal business meeting you might imagine today. That’s what makes this movie so good and so different from most other Holocaust movies. Highly recommend.
