You sound like my Dad. He loves WWII movies.

You might like Downfall. Perhaps Apt Pupil, as well, but it isn't about WWII so much as an old Nazi hiding his past in contemporary times.

My Dad loved war movies, and Wing likes them, too. I always have wanted to see the boy in the striped pajamas, ever since I saw the preview.

I'm so tired of the Nazi comparisons. When everything gets compared to Hitler and the Nazi's, we lose a sense of proper horror at group that killed over six million people.

College kids are the worst. Smarter than you, more enlightened than you, more passionate than you, all around better--until they grow up and realize they were dumb little bastards all along. Anyway. A gross generalization, yeah, but still...my time at IU was filled with soooooo many kids comparing Bush to Hitler I wanted to scream.
