    Not sure if it meets your criteria, but The Boys From Brazil does have a "henchman" in it.

    Good choices in there. Conspiracy is a very intense film but very well acted.

    Yes I suppose it does, thanks for that one, I've just been checking it out... "From his South American hideaway, deranged Nazi Josef Mengele plans to resurrect the Third Reich by creating clones of Hitler. But Nazi hunter Lieberman is on his trail"

    I'll have to watch it ;)

    I agree. For some reason every time I've watched it I seem to pick up more information I missed from the previous time. :spin:

    To think that the Final Solution was agreed at a conference at the Wannsee Villa by a group of human beings sat around a table, would lead to the holocaust we have all come to know is quite scary.

    Indeed. And it had already gone into effect in the East. In essence, Wansee was just a logistical meeting to test the waters and make sure the hierarchy was on the right page.

    Very true! Testing the waters in other areas with the German public was a common factor at times with the way things had to be done.

    Wow thanks for these titles, I'll have take a look at them. ;)
