Great. This documentary film is made to make one woman feel good about herself. Talk about narcissism. I don't know how much the documentary film makers were paid by the main protagonist of this film viz. Kristine Tompkins and her associates. Looks more like a PR film to me than anything else.

So first you create multiple multi-national corporations and make your millions while destroying nature. If someone wants to know how, just check what are the raw materials for making the apparel and gear that Espirit, Patagonia and North Face sell. Then you spend those millions acquiring land from erstwhile colonial land-grabbers and their government who drove the indigenous people of South America from these very lands which they were living on sustainably for generations. Next when you understand the scale of the problem and realize that you won't be able to solve it, you turn around and "donate" that land to the very same government. And then make this movie to feel good about yourself. Excellent.

This film depicts a love story between a Jewish Austrian journalist and a famous German actress in the backdrop of the spread of Nazism in Austria and the impending Nazi invasion of Austria.

The film starts out slow with the story going nowhere in the first half. But it picks up pace in the second half right till the tragic end. There is palpable fear and a feeling of impending doom as the two lovers try to come to terms with the impossible situation they find themselves in. The slogans of "Ein Volk, Ein Reich, Ein Fuhrer" sent a chill through my spine.

Good documentary. However, this film did not focus on the role of the diet of the average American and the role of the fast-food companies and soft drink companies in causing dental problems in the American population. Medicare is essentially subsidizing the harm caused by these companies. These companies should be liable for the harm they're causing to the American population.
