    It is really quite satisfactory. The biggest highlight is the nude scenes. The Heng Piao group will charge 1,000 yuan for a nude scene. It is estimated that the scene cost 30,000 yuan to get in.

    A simple film history about the Nanjing Massacre

    I watched Rabe’s Diary in Hong Kong a month ago.

John Rabe quotes

  • Colonel Nakajima Kesago: He disobeyed the rules by not staying in the car.

    John Rabe: He didn't stay in the car? His head was cut off!

    Colonel Nakajima Kesago: It was an honorable death. A contest between two officers. Very popular in Japan.

    John Rabe: What contest?

    Colonel Nakajima Kesago: Who decapitates the most enemies.

  • John Rabe: To the Führer of the German people. Chancellor Adolf Hitler. My Führer. As a loyal party member and upstanding German. I turn to you in a time of great need. The Japanese Imperial troops conquered the city of Nanking on December 12, 1937. Since then I have witnessed atrocious crimes against civilians. Please help to end this catastrophe and make an appeal to our Japanese allies in the name of humanity. With a German salute.
