	Brief Review: GLEIWITZ CASE (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		This strikingly stylized 1961 East German film is an account of a border incident staged by the Nazis to justify their 1939 invasion of Poland.
		At the time of its release, director Gerhard Klein's film was accused of emulating fascist aesthetics, and while it was not banned, it disappeared from theaters quickly.
		The use of shadows, oblique angles, eccentric closeups, and near-headless compositions does recall the work of Leni Riefenstahl, Nazism's top filmmaker, but also the expressionistic mode of such anti-Nazi directors as Fritz Lang.
