105. WWII: Reflection

from The Filmlings · host The Filmlings

As the WWII series comes to a close Alex and Jonathan take a very somber look at three documentaries looking back on the war — specifically in the areas of the Holocaust and the atomic bombing of Japan — in Night and Fog (1956), Shoah (1985), and White Light/Black Rain (2007). We discuss the different forms of storytelling voice across these films, the timely nature of their creation, and the importance of films of this nature existing at all after world-shaking events of any kind. Skip to: 5:13 – Night and Fog 18:50 – Shoah 46:16 – White Light/Black Rain 1:03:33 – Overall 1:11:02 – Coming Attractions Coming Attractions: Joe Versus the Volcano (1990) Sleepless in Seattle (1993) You've Got Mail (1998) For more information, visit the blog: https://thefilmlings.wordpress.com/2020/03/03/wwii-reflection Support the Show!
