Beneficiado por um extenso e fabuloso trabalho de pesquisa, Cohen apresenta de maneira brilhante a surpreendente (e chocante) motivação estética por trás dos esforços de guerra e de "purificação racial" dos nazistas.

"Architecture of Doom" analyzes the warped aesthetic of Adolf Hitler and the top echelon of the Third Reich. Using never-before-seen footage, the film attempts to shed light on the Nazis' obsession with concepts of order and stability borrowed from ancient Greece and Rome. The film also attempts to show how this demented aesthetic led to the banning of such modern artist as Picasso and, more importantly, the systematic annihilation of Jews, Gypsies and homosexuals.

Reviews for The Architecture of Doom
Poignantly narrated by Bruno Ganz, Cohen's chilly docu shows how Hitler channeled his artistic frustrations and political ambitions into the creation of a coherent ideological apparatus whose self-styled mission was to enhance "beauty" in the world.
