      I've seen some photographs she took I think, they looked made for the playgirl.
      For they time it was made, it was technically and esthetically (sp?) breathtaking in many aspects. However, it had also very long, very booooooring scenes, eg where you see just marching soldiers, civilians, men, women etc for ca. half an hour.

        never! and I wouldn´t be too surprised if it would turn out that Hitler never had sex at all.
        at least we know that Goebbels was keen on Leni but she always gave him the brush off.

          They should be a soap about those funny Nazi celebrities.

            What have you all been smoking that makes you think she was an arrogant Nazi, and whatnot?

                I didn´t say she was a Nazi, but she was certainly arrogant when it came to her role in Nazi Germany. Thing is, she never reflected honestly about that, just kept her "I knew nothing, I was oh so innocent, pure artist"-attitude until her death.

                    Of course, afterwards nobody knows anything.

                          At the Berlin Film Festival (I think it was 1999), I saw a very good German/Spanish production that did exactly that. Pretty damn funny, although like most films in such festivals it never really reaches wide audiences. Funniest was Goebbels who always tried to have sex but could never make it and the arian blonde that was homosexual.

                          So long...

                            some of the photographs she took (if indeed they were hers) seemed like they were made for gays.

                            they also seemed like she wanted to copy greek sculpture aesthetics but it didnt seem quite right... too barbaric, too fixed on power and not on beauty. cheap copies and rather silly

                              You've seen her propaganda films, right?
                              I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

                                She was a Nazi propaganda artist so why shouldn't we view her as a Nazi?
