Hotel Terminus: The Life And Times Of Klaus Barbie (Full Frame)

VHS, 267 minutes, MGM

Through interviews with Barbie sympathizers and ex-Gestapo officers, as well as those whose lives they heartrendingly altered, this remarkable film reveals the horrifying nature of Barbie's countless atrocities. But "Hotel Terminus" doesn't stop there. With a suspenseful, layer-by layer investigative technique, Ophuls draws attention to the equally shocking compliance of Americans and other Allies - individuals who conspired with Barbie to hide his crimes from public view for over 40 years! "A work of great merit and certain distinction" (The Hollywood Reporter) that explores its subject with "chilling clarity" (Newsweek), "Hotel Terminus" is "devastating and monumental...a great historical drama" (Los Angeles Times).
