Historian Deborah Lipstadt faces off in court with David Owen, dubbed a "Holocaust denier" by Lipstadt for insisting on the theory that the Holocaust didn't exist She was also brought to court for defamation. In the UK, defamation requires the defendant to find evidence, so Lipstadt had to find evidence that the Holocaust was true. In Lipstadt's case, she has hired attorney Anthony Julius (Andrew Scott) and trial attorney Richard Lampton (Tom Wilkinson) to serve her. The lawyers are excellent lawyers dealing with defamation cases. To win the lawsuit and dismiss Owen's defamation claims, Lipstadt and her defense team set out to prepare material to prove the Holocaust was real, and they also proved that there were misrepresentations of the facts in Owen's historical writings. , Owen manipulated historical events to distort and glorify Adolf Hitler.

    In the Holocaust movie, this one is also considered a special angle. Taking the overthrow of the negative as the guide, the trial and debate as the main point, without adding the victim's perspective, all the victims' emotions are vented to the end, emphasizing restraint and paying attention to logic, can also tell the story very powerfully.

    The subject matter is greater than the form, and the focus of the film has been fluctuating between the female protagonist's inner fluctuation and the debate in the court trial, resulting in failure to do well in both aspects. While the event itself was shocking, the way it was laid out just scratched the surface and didn't delve into it. In addition, it may be caused by the script factor, Vichy's character creation is not successful enough, and Spo's role has not been fully released~

Denial quotes

  • Richard Rampton: They're a strange thing consciences. Trouble is, what feels best isn't necessarily what works best.

  • David Irving: [first lines; in a video speaking to a sympathetic audience] I don't see any reason to be tasteful about Auschwitz. I say to you quite tastelessly that more women died on the back seat of Senator Edward Kennedy's car at Chappaquiddick than ever died in a gas chamber at Auschwitz.

    [audience laughing and applauding]

    Deborah Lipstadt: Holocaust denial rests on four basic assertions. Number 1: That there was never any systematic or organized attempt by the Nazis to kill all of Europe's Jews. Number 2: That the numbers are far fewer than five or six million. Number 3: That there were no gas chambers or specially built extermination facilities. Number 4: That the Holocaust is therefore a myth invented by Jews to get themselves financial compensation and to further the fortunes of the State of Israel. War, the deniers say, is a bloody business. There's nothing special about the Jews, they're not unique in their suffering. They're just everyday casualties of war. What's the fuss?

    Deborah Lipstadt: Okay, and here's another question, how do we know the Holocaust happened? Seriously. I'm asking. How do we prove it? Photographic evidence? Not one person in this room or outside it has ever seen a photograph of a Jew inside a gas chamber. You know why? Because the Germans made sure that none were ever taken. So how do we know? How do we *know* that so many were murdered? So what's the proof? Where's the proof? How strong is it?
