Putting aside the Nazi propaganda awareness of the documentary itself, Riefenstahl's shooting techniques and grasp of the German nation are laudable. The will of the Germanic people has continued from ancient times to the present. The ancient Germanic people lived in difficulty and could not get enough to eat. They went south for land and bread. Teutonic lamentations made people sad and shed tears. The Ostrogoths are a group of warriors, brave and good at fighting, straight-line thinking, and have the spirit of knowing that they can't do it, but they want to do it. The Vandals, thick-boned, burly men, ferocious animals, famous for their hopelessly destructive, broken stone pillars and uprooted trees, were the most determined anti-Roman fighters. The Axe in the west helped the Franks, bloody and cruel, and foolish and ignorant of life and death when they fought. The Brownies can't be beaten to death, but the Saxons have a bad temper, get angry easily, and are self-willed. The Gippites are lazy by nature, and will not lift the oil tank beside them when they fall down. They are slow and slow, but they are the strongest among the Germanic tribes. Lombards are innocent, brutal and primitive, so-called Shengfan. In modern times, the Germans, as the direct descendants of the Germans, in the two world wars, the powerful combat ability of German soldiers also made European countries ashamed. anti! In the post-war construction, it was the spirit of national self-sacrifice of the German people that created the post-war German economy. Today, the steely will of the Germans is reflected in their proud German football. Sweep the world and stand out from the crowd! There is no particularly gorgeous footwork, no particularly luxurious lineup, and no particularly outstanding tactics. Among the traditional strong teams, Germany is indeed inferior to others in terms of strength. However, we must not forget that the name of Germany is not for nothing. German football has a magic weapon that other teams do not have. This magic weapon will not disappear because of the replacement, and it will not be denied because of losing. That is the will of German football! It's like the soul of an army. Along the way, the German chariots have never left a gorgeous Cotai Strip, only the heavy tracks of the old chariots, swept across the court, and used their body and will to fight the opponent's military temperament.
The director Riefenstahl correctly grasped this unique temperament of the German nation, and was able to record the glory of that Nazi Germany with the lens. If "Tian Di Xuan Huang" is a close cooperation between director Ron Fricke and nature, then this "Triumph of the Will" is a documentary carefully planned by director Riefenstahl and Nazi leader Hitler. All the Germans, under the instigation of Hitler, unreasonably exerted their will, as if they were invincible, and they were all in my hands. In Triumph of the Will, every German is an actor, performing the tragedy known as "National Frenzy" as Hitler had hoped. Yes, Riefenstahl was the director of the film, and Hitler was the director of the entire German nation at the time.
