Many Germans who collaborated with the Nazi regime during the Third Reich later found themselves standing trial for crimes against humanity, but only one was an artist prosecuted for his work. Veit Harlan was a film director who, unlike many noted German auteurs, chose to stay in his homeland after Adolf Hitler rose to power, and made films under the supervision of the Nazi propaganda authorities. Harlan's best-known picture was Jud Süss (aka Jew Süss), a vehemently anti-Semitic drama that was required viewing for Hitler's top brass, a frequent attraction in Germany and occupied countries, and with the possible exception of Leni Riefenstahl's Triumph of the Will, the most notorious film to emerge from the Third Reich. Harlan was tried for his work as a Nazi propagandist, though he insisted he was coerced into making Jud Süss and other pro-Nazi films (a contention disputed by a number of his colleagues); two trials failed to convict Harlan, and he continued to work in Europe until his death in 1964. Filmmaker Felix Moeller presents a look at the life and work of this most notorious director in the documentary Harlan: Im Schatten von Jud Süss (aka Harlan: In the Shadow of Jew Süss), which examines Harlan's career as well as the impact his legacy has had on his descendants, some of whom have struggled to right Harlan's wrongs while others have preferred to keep their distance from his tainted reputation. One of the distant relatives interviewed for the picture is Christiane Kubrick, Harlan's niece who later wed the great director Stanley Kubrick. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

New Review For Movie Harlan - Im Schatten von Jud Süss (Harlan: In the Shadow of Jew Seuss)
As Moeller interviews all the candid and articulate surviving relations, we come to see how Harlan's toxic legacy played out among the generations, shattering the haunted family in ways that are disturbing and surprising.Kenneth Turan-Los Angeles Times
Harlan must have felt he was the right filmmaker at the right place at the right time. Did he ever stop to think that his luck also meant the doom of millions? Moeller's documentary can't supply an answer. It does, however, make the rest of us wonder.
Mark Feeney-Boston Globe
Moeller stirs up a hot broth of ideas about culpability, and the power of art for good and for evil.
Jonathan F. Richards-Film.com
Moeller is not heavy-handed in drawing conclusions; he leaves this largely to the audience.
Bill Goodykoontz-Arizona Republic
Moeller avoids sensationalism or pointing fingers, letting each side have its say and allowing viewers to decide Harlan's agenda for themselves.
V.A. Musetto-New York Post
Although his focus remains on Veit Harlan, Mr. Moeller directly engages, if again not deeply, questions about German mass guilt and the responsibility of succeeding generations.
Manohla Dargis-New York Times
This open therapy session-slash-doc is a film festival and PBS-type item worth seeking out.
Mark Keizer-Boxoffice Magazine
Provokes and fascinates.
Peter Keough-Boston Phoenix
More the exploration of German post-war guilt as it personally affects two different generations of one family than an analysis of Veit Harlan's films...fails to address a number of questions which it raises.
Laura Clifford-Reeling Reviews
A thought provoking film about a dreadful body of work and its legacy for those yet unborn.
Ron Wilkinson-Monsters and Critics
Exhibit A as to why every generation needs to be reminded about the horrors of the Holocaust afresh.
Kam Williams-Sly Fox
Thought-provoking context for a notorious film, with fascinating details on Harlan's life and oeuvre, and the complex impact of his work and ignominy on his extended family.
Nora Lee Mandel-Film-Forward.com
"Harlan: In the Shadow of the Jew Suss" is an engaging self-reflexive examination of a family grappling with, or refusing to fully acknowledge, something that is beyond the scope of generations.
Cole Smithey-ColeSmithey.com
Director Moeller's hands-off approach results in too many undigested faces and cross-opinions for the majority unfamiliar with director Harlan.
Donald J. Levit-ReelTalk Movie Reviews
shows that while art can quickly fade, guilt can last for untold generations
Chris Barsanti-Filmcritic.com
A provocative, illuminating and intriguing documentary.
Avi Offer-NYC Movie Guru
A stunning portrayal of the Third Reich cultural and political rot that got a fictionalized treatment in "Inglourious Basterds".

Movie Overview For Harlan - Im Schatten von Jud Süss (Harlan: In the Shadow of Jew Seuss)
Though almost forgotten today, Veit Harlan was one of Nazi Germany's most notorious filmmakers. His most perfidious film was the treacherous anti-Semitic propaganda film Jud Süß - required viewing for all SS members. An unrepentant and blindly obsessive craftsman, no figure - save for Leni Riefenstahl - is as closely associated with the cinema of the Holocaust years. (Harlan's epic Kolberg was the basis for Inglourious Basterds's pivotal film-within-a-film Stolz Der Nation.) This documentary is an eye-opening examination of World War II film history as well as the story of a German family from the Third Reich to the present; one that is marked by reckoning, denial and liberation.TagLine Harlan - Im Schatten von Jud Süss (Harlan: In the Shadow of Jew Seuss)
