The Wonderful, Horrible Life of Leni Riefenstahl (1993)

Posted on 06:09 by uthpa

Germany/France/UK/Belgium
Feature Documentary
Original Title: Die Macht der Bilder: Leni Riefenstahl
Director: Ray Müller
Cinematographers: Michel Baudour, Walter A. Franke, Ulrich Jaenchen, Jürgen Martin
Composers: Ulrich Bassenge, Wolfgang Neumann
Featuring: Leni Riefenstahl

Müller’s fascinating rhetorical documentary - a thorough examination of the titular infamous film-maker's life, in which the wilful, irascible 89-year-old pleads ignorance and innocence over charges of Nazi collaboration, whilst Müller’s images often tell a different story - is an engrossing and entertaining film, but one that is unlikely to change anyone’s views of the enigmatic, larger than life figure.
