The Untold History of the United States

To watch Nuremberg is to experience a curious sense of temporal dislocation and double vision. Visually, Nuremberg appears to be a found document: a 1948 production of the Office of Military Government, United States (OMGUS), issued in a new print, Stuart Schulberg's original having been restored by his daughter Sandra and her collaborator, Josh Waletzky. Aurally, however, the narration is unmistakably of our times, the voice belonging to the act…
