Goebbel's experiment

Arguably the most gifted of Hitler's henchmen, Joseph Goebbels was an enigmatic genius whose successful manipulation of mass political opinion was unprecedented. His rise to power, and that of the Nazi Party itself, will forever stand as one of history's most terrifying examples of the reach of propaganda, a tool with which Goebbels's name is virtually synonymous.In their fascinating documentary, the filmmakers provide a rare and chilling glimpse into a brilliant but toxic mind. Rejecting commentary, they allow Goebbels to speak for himself (in the voice of Kenneth Branagh), via the extensive diaries that he kept from 1924 to 1945. Rare clips from German film and television archives illustrate the readings.

  • "Using Goebbel's own words from his diaries written between 1924 and 1945 we are shown how he transformed his political career over and over again, and with the use of modern media."

  • "The Nazi propaganda mastermind behind Hitler speaks in first person as actor Kenneth Branagh reads pages of the diary kept by the chief of propaganda, Joseph Goebbels, revealing the man's most inner thoughts. Joseph Goebbels (1897-1945) was a symbol of Germany's Nazi regime and a twentieth-century icon of maniacal cruelty. His name has been synonymous with cynical, unscrupulous, and at times successful, propaganda. The life of Joseph Goebbels is far more complicated and disturbing than labels like "genius of spin" or "Reich Liar-General" would suggest. The chronicle shows how Goebbels continually "restaged" and reinvented himself -- from his early days as a radical "popular socialist" to his tragic end. The film lets Goebbels speak for himself through the diaries he kept without interruption from 1924 to 1945, as never before seen historical footage from German archives traces the life of the second most powerful man of the Third Reich, detailing his initial attraction to the Nazi party and his adoration of Hitler. The result is a fascinating psycho-gram of a man who careened extravagantly between self-pity, wild extermination fantasies, and political excesses."@en

  • "The Goebbels experiment lets the Nazi propaganda mastermind behind Hitler talk directly to you as actor Kenneth Branagh reads pages of the diary he kept without interruption from 1924 to 1945."
  • "Joseph Goebbels (1897-1945) hat den NS-Staat als Markenzeichen überlebt. Sein Name steht noch heute weltweit für hemmungslose, zynische und zumindest zeitweise erfolgreiche Propaganda. In regelmässigen Abständen kommt es zu Goebbels-Vergleichen, mit denen aktive Politiker als besonders üble Hetzer und Polemiker gebrandmarkt werden sollen. Wie kaum ein anderer Politiker und Agitator vor ihm war er ausserdem eine filmische und theatralische Existenz. Goebbels befasste sich voller Hingabe und Arbeitswut mit dem gesamten Spektrum der öffentlichen Kommunikation ? und scheiterte dennoch politisch und moralisch auf ganzer Linie. (Quelle: Umschlag)."
  • "Using archival clips from German films and television, and readings from Goebbels' own diaries, this documentary explores the Nazi propaganda machine run by Goebbels before and during World War II."
