An honorable mention should go the “The 49th Parallel”, which was British but takes place across Canada with an all-star cast. The most entertaining pure propoganda movie I ahd ever seen.
Franz Liebkind got blown up by his own bomb and spent time in prison.
That may not be the exact quote but close enough.
First Nazi I thought of getting what he deserved in the movies was the Gestapo creep from “Raiders of the Lost Ark.” Sure enough, he was on the list. His performance was melting.
I haven’t seen Holocaust but the rest are top tier movies. Good list.
From the Polish series “Czas Honoru” (Time of Honor)

Damn, shorty..posting from my phone but whatever…(hang in there got
Stuff going on. Hang on..)
I agree with all the items on the list except Henry Gibson’s performance.
Some honorable mentions:
— Josef Mengele’s death in Boys from Brazil (very fitting)
— Colonel Hessler’s death in Battle of the Bulge
— The Nazi tank commander in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade
— Most of the Nazi deaths in Fury
"I'm afraid Mrs. Himmel, you will find your husband somewhat changed. You see, we amputated his … ‘enthusiasm’.
What really bothers me about this topic is how many Nazis (in real life) got just a slap on the wrist for their horrible crimes.
Here’s just one example, out of hundreds:
At Nuremberg, Walther Funk was sentenced to life imprisonment. But the poor baby was released after ten years due to “ill health”. Funk lived on for another three years.
I don’t recall any Nazi concentration camp inmates being released early for ill health.
(Sorry for the rant. But this is a pet peeve of mine.)
Tomorrow being June 4th, the death date of Reinhard Heydrich,
it would be apt to discuss him, even if a movie were not made showing the great pain he suffered in his dying.
He was the most efficient of Hitler’s henchmen and his demise could not have come too soon.
Ironically, he rose through circumstance, starting out as a violin teacher. When his town went broke, he joined the Nazi party for financial gain.
Major Heinrich Strasser - Casablanca
Which was the more ridiculous movie?
Inglorious Bassterds?
Or, Fury?
No mention of Illinois Nazis in “Blues Brothers”?
‘Cause I HATE Illinois Nazis ...
Professor Charles Rankin (Orson Welles) in The Stranger (1946).
How can Lawrence Olivier’s “Dr. Christian Szell” in “The Marathon Man” be overlooked. Combining a desperately greedy Nazi war criminal with sadistic dentist is nightmare fuel.
Olivier was undergoing harsh cancer treatments at the time and certain this was his last shot, and he definitely put this monster over.
“Is it safe?”
Donald Sutherland (an incredible actor IMHO) as Henry Faber, a German spy in The Eye Of The Needle and Donald Sutherland as Liam Devlin, a German spy who’s mission is to assassinate Churchill in The Eagle Has Landed . . .
