Video Review - Night and Fog

I found a video copy of Alan Renais' Night and Fog at the library. I always wanted to see the film so I took it out (and since my Netflix film hasn't arrived yet I just watched it).

It is a devastating record of the Nazi atrocities. It is very hard to watch. In fact, that is an understatement. But Renais alternates between color and black and white. It is very well put together. And at only 30 minutes it packs quite a punch.

At the end the narrator indicates that something like this could happen again. And as the film was made in 1955 we can clearly see that it has more than once.
