Maybe if we chipped in to buy it and passed it around? :-) High marks by the reviewers. One fellow said he had seen the film countless times and had even visited the graves in Alte Perlach Cemetery in Munich.

Somewhere, I think it was a linked page, one comes across the words of Gauleiter Giesler addressing the students. He is very soothing. He tells the girls that they obviously are in school because they are not attractive enough to find a boy friend. He advises them to leave higher education to men and to stay home and make one good boy baby for Germany every year.

Girls LOVE to hear those things <g>

Being the cheapskate that I am, I already thought of that! : )

Here is a different version of events. I think you 'girls' did just fine.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

"On 13 January, to mark the 470th anniversary of the university, the Nazi Gauleiter--District Leader--of the city, Paul Giesler, gave a speech in the course of which he told the female students that it would be better for them to get on with giving the Fuhrer a child than wasting time on books; he even offered to put his henchmen at their service.:

"Several girls immediately left the hall in protest, only to be arrested at the exit. This led to a demonstration, in the course of which the Nazi Student Leader was dragged from the podium, beaten up, and declared a hostage against the release of the girls."

"The Nazis telephoned the police, who promptly arrived and broke up the meeting. This was the first student demonstration against the Nazis in Munich, and it stimulated the Gestapo to redouble its efforts to find the originators of the White Rose. "
