Nuremberg Film A Lesson For All Americans

By MARY ANN NOLAND Were the German leaders responsible for the atrocities during World War II that took place in Germany, or were these men merely being faithful to their country? This was the basic question at the Nuremberg trials in 1945. While the film “Judgment a t Nuremberg” centers around a particular trial, one referred to as the Judge's Trial (since the defendants were judges) its moral significance is not lessened. Before further exploring the picture’s merits, I shoul d like to give my opinion of the word “moral.” Most of think of this word in connection with what one ought not do. In this film, however, what I believe to be the greater meaning of the word is exposed; that is, the movie concerns that which the judges should have done. The plot of “Judgment at Nuremberg”, centers around the fact that these judges knowingly condemned innocent people to horrible and unmerited deaths or imprisonment. This seems a fairly simple idea. It is extremely significant, however, because for the first time in the modern era, at least, a victor nation tried a vanquished nation. And for the first time in the modern era, a nation committed crimes against its own people and those in occupied areas purely on the basis of their political affiliations or race. After hearing this, one thinks the moral judgment to simple. But, as Maximillian Schell points out, he is the defense counsel), “who is the greater coward, the man who leaves his country in time of peril, or the man who stays in her leadership in order to further aid her?” "HAWAIIAN YOUNGSTER" The most interesting character is Ernst Janning, a bril- B y JUNE GUTMANlS bold, yet sensitive portrait ity of either.
