In today’s episode, Film Forum presents a Q&A from the opening night of SPEER GOES TO HOLLYWOOD, on October 29th. The new documentary explores the post-war life of Albert Speer, the highest ranking Nazi to be spared the death penalty at Nuremburg, who was widely known as Hitler’s architect. After emerging from 20 years at Spandau prison with a best-selling memoir, rebranded as a “good Nazi,” Speer tried – and got shockingly close – to attaining legitimate movie stardom. The film is based on hours of audio recordings between Speer and screenwriter Andrew Birkin, who was hired by Paramount to script the film version of Speer’s life story. We were joined for the Q&A by filmmaker Vanessa Lapa and producer Tomer Eliav, moderated by Roger Berkowitz, the founder and director of Bard College’s Hannah Arendt Center. SPEER GOES TO HOLLYWOOD is now playing. Please check www.filmforum.org for showtimes and tickets. Photo by Stephen Olweck.
