"Downfall"

I recently saw "Downfall," a movie about the final days of Adolf Hitler and the Third Reich. One of this year's Oscar nominations for best foreign film, it was a sobering reminder that 50 million people lost their lives during WWII, including 6 million Jews. Having visited the Holocaust Museum in Jerusalem, the concentration camp at Auschwitz, and the Holocaust Museum in Washington, D.C., I was reminded once again that "ideas have consequences."

Go see this movie! (lest we forget). Before you do, read Roger Ebert's good review (he gave the movie 4 stars) at http://www.rogerebert.com.
