Declaring  Triumph of the will as an exceptional piece of film would be the least someone can say . If you interpret all the fundamentals of film making I believe this film represents it entirely. But Of curse if you throw ethics in there it can change someone’s opinion . Why I throw ethics as a factor of changing someone mind its because it personally changed mine. When I found out the movie was banned from Germany it made me want to answer the obvious question as In why? Through my own critical thinking I believe it came from shame . Shame that the people fell into the traps of hell. How a whole country can look playful and enthusiastic and bow to the feet of their “savoir”. When he was a mass murderer. And I continue by saying I don’t blame the people.Where there is direction people will follow even though the direction was illuminated and painted a picture of right it was wrong. But just because you were led wrong doesn’t mean you cant acknowledge there was once harm done by you. I believe this film fits into the reflexive category as it calls questions to the conventions and methodologies of documentary film. It also falls partial in biography mode. Having part of Adolf Hitler’s life. Over all I feel the film shed much needed light to what was taken place with the people surrounding the world war and the holocaust, being such vital parts of world history. World history can be directly tied with leading doc film and their purposes.
