The Memory of Justice
Marcel Ophuls | France/Germany/ UK/ USA | 1976 | 278 min. | documentary

Arguably his greatest work, and virtually unavailable to the U.S. public, The Memory of Justice remains Ophuls' most ambitious film. If you can commit to seeing only one 4 1/2 hour film in your lifetime, make the necessary arrangements to see this stunning masterwork. In one courageous, lyrical tour de force, Ophuls takes on the sweep of history from Nuremberg to Vietnam, exploring the questions of guilt and responsibility for the horrors of war.

Shown at the 1995 Human Rights Watch Festival. Distributed by Paramount Repertory, 2124 Zucker Bldg, 5555 Melrose, Los Angeles, CA 90038.
