We recently saw the movie Nuremberg with Russell Crowe as Hermann Goering.

Based on the 2013 book, The Nazi and the Psychiatrist by Jack El-Hai, it’s the story of psychiatrist Douglas Kelly (Rami Malek) who comes to the post-war ruins of Germany to interview Nazi second-in-command Hermann Goering (Russell Crowe) and determine if he is fit for trial.

It’s an interesting take on the psychology, the science of the mind and of the mental states and processes at the trials, and Russell does a great job.

At our local cinema there was very long lines waiting to get in. They delayed the start of the movie for 30 minutes till most people were seated.

Nuremberg is not easy viewing, at times it’s brutal and leaves the packed audience in stunned silence at others. But it’s a formidable piece of work and could transform into a career defining performance for Crowe and possible early contender for an Oscar.

Readers will understand when I say, there was many elderly Jewish people waiting patiently in the queue. I looked at some of their faces, it was though they had to see this movie, after their own experiences in Europe in WW2. It runs 2.5 hours.
