If it had been portrayed (as it is now claimed) to be products of his illness, that would have been bold film-making (though frightening and interesting, commingling antisemitism and bi-sexuality with mental illness...).

Actually, I think there's a very simple reason they left these two aspects of his life out. Due to PCness, they would have been obliged to portray the anti-semitism as a symptom of his disease, but the homosexuality as a brave rebellion against the opporession of society. I think they weren't up to this trial.
