American Experience: The Nuremberg Trials S18.E6 Episode aired Jan 30, 2006
The series "American Experience" is excellent at presenting many varied subjects that should be of interest to all of us. This presentation of the Nuremberg Trials is a good overview of the purpose and demeanor of the trials. Much is left out due to time constraints, yet we get enough information to see what happened and why.
As a side treat, we get to see many of the people of the time, and the story is told mostly by their offspring. The narrator is Joe Morton. He is an actor, known for "Terminator 2: Judgment Day" (1991).
