RETRO FILES / REMNANTS OF BERLIN 71 YEARS AGO TODAY


NAZI GERMANY, 1936
The two full color films linked below show Berlin in two different years:  1936 during the height of the Third Reich’s bravado and 1945 when the Allied war machine humiliated Nazi Germany by crushing its ability to make war.

Seeing these poignant cinema documents make it hard to believe the highs and lows of WWII Germany were only nine years apart.

Berlin July, 1945  U.S. Army film.
