Canada's greatest actor and I confess to being guilty of expecting him to live to about 150 to keep enjoying his work. Our loss at his departure. Our good fortune to enjoy his body of work.
Nuremberg, Infamy on Trial was a made-for-TV movie, so he wasn't eligible for an Oscar...an Emmy Award would have been appropriate for the quality of the performance he delivered!
IMO he never was underrated. Same leauge as some other British actors of that generation: Michael Caine, Sean Connery, Anthony Hopkins (a little younger), Richard Burton (Welsh) and a lots of others I forgot in this very moment. Btw, the book "The Spy Who Came in From the Cold" must be the best spy novel I have ever read...ah, maybe one of the best non-fictional book ever read, though a tie is Norman Mailer's "The Naked and the Dead." You just can't make these books into films.
Only someone like Plummer could underplay this scene by *just* the right amount to make it as horrifying as it ought to be. He uses the voice of a recording angel, "infinitely gentle, infinitely suffering"--and infinitely just.
I was fortunate to see Mr. Plummer live on stage in Canada. He was in Anthony and Cleopatra at the Stratsford festival in 1967. I was hooked on Shakespeare ever since. A great actor.
Chris Plummer is simply one of the finest actors Canada has ever produced. Great on screen even better on stage. Guy was just a masterclass in of himself.
Fine actor in a powerful recreation of one of the most impactful trials in human history. Also watch "Judgment at Nuremberg" with Spencer Tracy, Burt Lancaster, Marlene Dietrich, Judy Garland, Maximilian Schell, and many others.
Never again! What a performance by Plummer. Truly one of great actors of the last 50 years. Only someone like him could deliver this and do it justice.
Never again proved to be the empty meaningless slogan as it IS happening again, in Ukraine where russian fascists are doing EXACTLY the same as German nazi did, they occupy, invade, create filtration camps, torture, rape, kidnap, deport, use forced labour, kill. So please never say ''never again'' when it is happening to us AGAIN. The very same thing. Wake up and read news.
@@mack_yesthatone imagine refusing to believe this despite the overwhelming evidence, facts don't care about your feelings the holocaust happened its a historical fact.
A masterful performance by a legend of stage and screen... I cannot help but wonder what happened after that take, and the director said "cut"... If there was only silence for awhile... The words moved the cast in the scene... that is clear to see.. even without ... acting it... Even extras, if you observe closely, are moved deeply ... Best to say, this is a legend of the craft at work. A standard that will be difficult to better. His passing is a loss to all .
After the first take sure, but after several takes everyone would’ve been numb to it. Which is exactly what happened with the guards and soldiers carrying out these atrocities.
This was reported in the Jewish Journal about Plummer’s speech: “by the end of the first take, the entire cast and crew could not hold back their approval. “We were not only in tears, but we applauded, which is very rare on a set,” said actress Jill Hennessy
Conspiracy theories that the Nazi's started galvanized Germans to hate Jews. Look all over comment sections on the internet and see how we are slowly repeating history.
I won't forget both the light and the dark side of history. It's people like my father (a minister) who say that those of lifestyles will burn in Hell. He deliberately betrayed my godfather who loves our family. It feels like my father drove a dagger into my heart. Looking at him now feels like a nightmarish look that Christopher Plummer had on his face.
Christopher Plummer does not "act" in his performance. He does not read the words of the witness of these atrocities. Instead he delivers the words as if HE were the witness to the horror and inhumanity. Christopher Plummer's character IS the witness to the crimes that is evidenced by the pauses and accentuation of specific words, phrases and gestures. This is brilliant! It is effortless. He makes his performance look easy; as if any of us could do the same. And we would if WE witnessed a horrific and brutal crime.
@@spanishflea634 No it's not. He could have delivered the words as if reading the transcript completely banal ; without pauses, inflections, gestures and that too would be "acting".
@@jx14aby Absolute nonsense. Hearsay evidence is admissable, though you can rarely build a case on that alone, but it is valid evidence. Affadavits given under oath are a standard form of evidence in trials.
@@davidbuckley2435 Nonsense. This is an opening statement - not evidence. Yes, hearsay is admissible in limited situation. Sometimes, in federal court, the judge require the parties to submit their client's testimony in writing, and only allow the opposing party to cross-examine.
As a German I say this is the basis and the origin of what we are today. These facts are in my heart so to be an Old Testament to our country. Never will we forget those who are being given account of here. Remembrance and consciousness must be our pride and identity.
As someone who grew up around lots of prejudiced family members, I can't imagine hating anyone so much because of how they look or where they're from that you begin exterminating them like rats. It makes my blood boil frankly

Horrible beyond words. So sick. All of this happened. If you doubt it did may God help you. Now it seems like history is repeating itself all over again. Evil never sleeps.
Specifically, these days, who is forcing people to undress, be shot and end up dumped in mass graves? Are you referring to Putin's ridiculous war, or are you intending to say something else?
@@Brian6587 Undoubtedly, horrible murders have occurred there. The reason I asked is because these days, if you disagree with someone politically, often they accuse you of being a 'Nazi'. For that reason, the word 'Nazi' is losing it's meaning.

The first motion picture I ever saw him in, he defiantly ripped a nazi flag from its staff and tore it to pieces, a scene I remember well. The movie also starred Julie Andrews. A fine actor. Indeed, one of the greats.
Plummer was an intelligence officer during the war, and spoke fluent German. I am sure he read the intel reports coming in about the camps while on active duty. So he could have channeled how he reacted on reading the reports and seeing the recon photos for the first time.
There are Hollywood actors, witch are just pretty faces and nothing more, and there are actors like Mr Plummer. He gives you a masterclass of acting in every role he takes on. A n then acting becomes art.
William Shirer (an eyewitness to the Nuremberg Trials) in his book "The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich", says that when Graeber's deposition was read "a hush of horror fell over the entire courtroom".
Credit where it's due to anyone in that room who was armed, they showed a hell of a lot of restraint, because I would have ended that reading with as many bullets as I could have put in Goering and the others as those around me would have been willing to allow.
Plummer took the role to expunge the trail of sugary syrup that followed him after starring as the Baron von Trapp in the Sound of Music. I think he succeeded, don’t you?
What a performance. He through a light on what was a horrific experience of those poor unfortunate souls. Truly very moving! What a great actor! He reflected the true horrors of those unfortunate defenseless people. Unfortunately it is happening all over again in Ukraine.
@@polobhuilean5217 a "trite" comparison? So who is it being disrespectful in reality then? YOU! All the elements of the worst of the Nazis are there in Ukraine, perpetrated by Putin's forces.

@@davidpnewton well well and many thanks for taking the time to respond to my comment, allowing me to respond. When one understands the propaganda that accompanies almost any war, especially a good juicy war with a white euro country versus a white euro communist country ! Then the journos are almost orgasmic with their constant reporting of all the horrific and horrid incidents, even and including the brutal rape of every young lady, young boy, old ladies, torture, mass graves, cannibalism etc, etc. Every war has the same coverage, although we don’t hear about the constant wars in Africa, the Yemen, Syria, China as they don’t suit the globalist view ! However and to your statement on how Putin is a modern day Adolfus, we beg to differ in that the latter did manage to exterminate over “6 million” of our brothers and sisters in extermination kamps. Not to mention the millions of civilians who were murdered by both sides during the Second World War (and the soldier’s). So has Monsieur Putin reached thèse heights of depraity….. errrrrrr no ! Has Monsieur Zedinsky ? Monsieur Putin is just like Clinton, Bush, Obama, Bush jnr, Blair and Biden. They are all war mongering money taking political monkeys.

@@polobhuilean5217 ah you're an apologist for genocide then. Fair enough. Just so everyone knows where you stand and what you position and morality is.
Even though not shown here, I bet Christopher Plummer must have cried reading this, I wonder how many takes was needed for this scene. I remember reading a few documents of what happen in order tragedies, it was so detailed, I cried a few times in mid sentences. People with good consciences would not be able to read properly of such tragedies.
Wonderful performance, by a gifted actor. .... the emanations of those hell-beings on trial seek to recreate the horrors today, in America. Stop them before we have to try them!
Whenever any group of people are dehumanized by another, this must be a our dire and gravest warning alarm. How?!? How can this happen?!? This not the first time I’ve heard this, I’ve seen documentaries, read accounts. Each time, wanting to look away, but bringing myself back to finish the piece, tears streaming, nausea rising, to be a witness. And others have committed atrocities before this and since. How? It seems to me that the essential key that unlocks such inhumanity and evil must be the dehumanization of the victims. That is what we must reject, in all its forms, especially with those we disagree the strongest because we are blindest to it then. Back with terror far away from the edge that looks down into such a pit that would devour our souls.
Well spoken. It brings to mind the stories of what the Japanese did in the Far East between 1937 and 1945. Many of the stories of their brutality moved me to tears.
Morality is far more complex than a good/evil dichotomy. But what’s important is that humans are moral beings, we always have a choice. And our moral responsibility is for the choices we make. There are Nazis who refused to murder, not because who they were, or what was present in them, but because they could think, and made a choice. And when told to murder, responded with an unambiguous, no.
In the nurebmerg trials had two executioners. One was John C. Woods who has one of the WORST records botching executioners during the the time the Other was Albert Pierrepoint who was the best in his line of work all his jobs where perfect and the prisoners didnt suffer. After hearing that story who did those convicts deserve?
@@jjakiefte2165 Hard disagree there, a handful of men suffering a bit before death, for roughly 6 million people, bare minimum, deprived of there most basic principles of rights, dignity and humanity, is fine by me. They deserved far worse.
@@jjakiefte2165 I think the Allies would still be better, but having purposely horrible executions (or purposely horrible prisons), is not productive. The only thing civilized society needs is that the bad actors be separated from that society. Anything more than that is just petty revenge.

Katyn. And not just officers; Polish teachers, mayors, lawyers, doctors, engineers, etc.-anyone who commanded any authority in society. They wanted to eliminate the people who could maintain Polish civil society. They were scum. And they’re still scum; they’re doing the same thing this very minute in Ukraine.
There are a number if scenes in this movie where it cuts to the Soviet Judge looking dismayed at what he is hearing, and i always think he is thnking ' well this sounds like the soviet terror, the purges, the gulags, the 10 000 polish officers, the russian civil war , the cannibalism in the east during the great patriotic war , cannibal island, and lets not forget......holodomor
No. The movie is in the court room, the city, the prison where the accused were held, various buildings where the court party was, the road, an airplane at one point etc.
They say this will never happen again… But it has… Rwanda, Libya, Iraq, Syria, Ukraine, China…

never forget. and remember that those survivors who wore pink triangles were locked back up by the east and west german governments.
What's the significance of pink triangles?
@@yisroelcohen658 homosexuals I believe. At the time, seen as mentally retarded. Both are fair game to the SS and most western institutions.

satisfying to see then that today, germany is an abode of gay rights (though not perfect, granted) compared to the US (not even talking about places like russia).
Anybody knows what Cox said they're at the end
"Did any of you ever heard of this (Herman Friedrich) Graebe?... Huh?"
Is this from the “miniseries”
This movie down played the brilliant interrogation, by Sir David Maxwell Fyfe, of Herman Göring.
A damned fine actor . True , true, true factual information😮
I think you say a damn fine actor. You wouldn't suggest that the actor is damned.
@@seanwebb605 not at all! Just a phrase used loosely
@@seanwebb605 no! Just an expression used in social circles!
Christopher Plummer as British prosecutor Sir David Maxwell-Fyfe. Alec Baldwin (currently himself on trial) as Chief Prosecutor Robert H. Jackson.
And Brian Cox as Herman Goring - Cox won the Emmy for his performance.
War crimes, sadly, are a part of what we are. 😓
I never get tired listening to what happen after the war. Twelve been kill.
And Baldwin! Curious as to how it would be to kill someone. Later procedes to do so. Well, now he knows.
''Goring never had an original thought in his head'' Leo Kahn.
The irony of this scene is there's a Soviet judge present and this is precisely what the Soviets did to Polish officers, Gulag notwithstanding.
Katyn. And not just officers; Polish teachers, mayors, lawyers, doctors, engineers, etc.-anyone who commanded any authority in society. They wanted to eliminate the people who could maintain Polish civil society. They were scum. And they’re still scum; they’re doing the same thing this very minute in Ukraine.
Not splitting hairs. The Soviets were undoubtedly awful. But Katyn wasn't elderly, women, and children. So no I don't think that's a good comparison.
@@bman6065 Yes you are splitting hairs.
There are a number if scenes in this movie where it cuts to the Soviet Judge looking dismayed at what he is hearing, and i always think he is thnking ' well this sounds like the soviet terror, the purges, the gulags, the 10 000 polish officers, the russian civil war , the cannibalism in the east during the great patriotic war , cannibal island, and lets not forget......holodomor
@@bman6065 agreed.
The presence of music is a disservice to this scene
Never forget. Fight any regime that even suggests this ... to the end.
is this surround sound?
Christopher Plummer - the only man who defeated tyrants over two centuries; from Waterloo to Nuremburg
Well read.
Imagine trying not to have bad thoughts while seeing so many naked people to be your last thoughts.
Unbelievably harrowing.
Is there a link to the full movie?
Miniseries, its on youtube. Name’s Nuremberg(2000)
@@jcc6913 thank you
They earned it
I didnt want to click the "like" icon for this. But for want of another, it was all I could do. Sorry.
Is the whole movie in this courtroom? This doesn’t capture the scale or significance of the trial at all.
No. The movie is in the court room, the city, the prison where the accused were held, various buildings where the court party was, the road, an airplane at one point etc.
no trials for Stalin?
