Riefenstahl is great after all! Even if many people say "Triumph of the Will" is a political propaganda film. But I have to admit that everything she recorded is actually so precious. Hitler can't be repeated, and everything in the film is so unrepeatable and shocking.

Hitler is indeed a person who endangers the whole world, but we also have to admit that he is indeed a very charming person! In Triumph of the Will, we can see how an empire is formed and why its will can be so strong. Aren't all these images precious enough? In this case, how can we deny Riefenstahl, such a master of the world! Not only as a filmmaker, but also as a woman, she is really great enough to be immortalized through the ages, and will forever hang in the chapters of film history!

I have heard too much about Riefenstahl, and I have all understood it after watching "The Triumph of the Will". I praised Riefenstahl over and over again, and reminisced about her over and over again!

Looking at Baidu, Riefenstahl's introduction, I can not help but blood! Such a person who never ceases to challenge his life, such a person who has devoted his whole life to the film, is so worthy of people's respect and love.

More because of Riefenstahl, I was deeply impressed by the greatness of documentaries. What it shows people is often more shocking and meaningful than a feature film. The Germanic Empire could not be repeated, but Riefenstahl recorded it all. What we saw in the film was the real Hitler, what we heard was the real Hitler's voice, and we could feel all the real events that happened in Germany at that time! This kind of "authenticity" is something that feature films or any art form cannot bring! Hitler in "Triumph of the Will" is different from Hitler in any feature film, no one shaped him, no one deliberately imitated him, and he was him! His speech, demeanor, passion, finally let us know why the German people are so crazy about him and why they follow him so much! This is the charm and greatness of documentaries! As Frank Capra said, "If American soldiers could see this film, they would know why they fought."

Hats off to Riefenstahl! Salute to all the documentaries! You are so great! Only your courage and perseverance can restore all these truths to people! Only then can we see such a real, irreproducible history!

PS: Hitler was definitely a bad guy! But Riefenstahl is definitely a great artist!

I have long heard that Riefenstahl is not only a talented woman but also a very beautiful woman! But when I saw his photo, I couldn't help but sigh, "Sure enough, she's a beauty! Not only can she be tossed so much, she's also born so beautiful!"
