We watched Nuremberg with Alec Baldwin tonight. It was well done, especially Brian Cox's nuanced portrayal of Hermann Goering.
An interesting moment in the film came when Goering, who was attempting to rally his fellow defendants tells a pair of jokes:
What do you have when you have one German? A fine man.
Two? A Bund (confederacy or union).
Three? A war.
What do you have when you have one Englishman? An idiot.
Two? A club.
Three? An empire.
Now it's on to Judgment at Nuremberg.
