Because it is a real event, a lot of legal content in the film needs to be understood, but this is also an important content of the film. Once you understand it, you will understand how wonderful it is! There is nothing special about the film itself. Perhaps the director's personal cognition or scruples did not allow the film to have a higher ideological improvement and in-depth discussion, but it is worth adding one more star to present such a sensitive topic to the audience. . Emotional cognitive enthusiasm cannot win the truth of history. Rational response will make the truth more respected by future generations. Blind abuse and ignorant atrocities will only make opponents more ecstatic and win more audiences. In the resurgence of the future, history will face more difficult challenges

Denial quotes

  • Richard Rampton: They're a strange thing consciences. Trouble is, what feels best isn't necessarily what works best.

  • David Irving: [first lines; in a video speaking to a sympathetic audience] I don't see any reason to be tasteful about Auschwitz. I say to you quite tastelessly that more women died on the back seat of Senator Edward Kennedy's car at Chappaquiddick than ever died in a gas chamber at Auschwitz.

    [audience laughing and applauding]

    Deborah Lipstadt: Holocaust denial rests on four basic assertions. Number 1: That there was never any systematic or organized attempt by the Nazis to kill all of Europe's Jews. Number 2: That the numbers are far fewer than five or six million. Number 3: That there were no gas chambers or specially built extermination facilities. Number 4: That the Holocaust is therefore a myth invented by Jews to get themselves financial compensation and to further the fortunes of the State of Israel. War, the deniers say, is a bloody business. There's nothing special about the Jews, they're not unique in their suffering. They're just everyday casualties of war. What's the fuss?

    Deborah Lipstadt: Okay, and here's another question, how do we know the Holocaust happened? Seriously. I'm asking. How do we prove it? Photographic evidence? Not one person in this room or outside it has ever seen a photograph of a Jew inside a gas chamber. You know why? Because the Germans made sure that none were ever taken. So how do we know? How do we *know* that so many were murdered? So what's the proof? Where's the proof? How strong is it?
