Quotes
Général von Choltitz: To think that barely two weeks ago Paris was the dream posting for a German soldier. The most docile, disciplined territory in the whole of Nazi Europe. An officer posted here knew he had left the war behind, and would want for nothing. The only battles to be fought here were to obtain the best table in a restaurant.See more »
History is a difficult subject to understand as it is not possible for everybody to remember numerous dates and events which have shaped it over a period of time. The arrival of cinema has been a great blessing in disguise for history as it enables people to have a better understanding of one of the most boring subjects studied in colleges, schools and universities. The field of cinema allows history to be faithfully recreated in front of viewers' own eyes in order to enable them to witness events which happened in their absence. Diplomatie is one film which finds its roots in the history especially second world war which was responsible for breaking many European bones. Apart from an honest depiction of war especially the debacle of German forces at the hands of allied forces, Diplomatie touches upon some key ethical questions too. These questions help us to understand the motivations of this film's leading men who respect each other to such a large extent that they do not mind hearing different opinions. For a film based on a famous play about the planned destruction of Paris, 'Diplomatie' shows itself as a fast paced film with the minimal provision for slow scenes. Director Volker Schlondorff has maintained his neutral stance as his film clearly eschews the custom of taking sides in order to hide a group's weakness. Finally, there is something for everybody in 'Diplomatie' as viewers are going to watch how close Paris and its inhabitants came to seeing massive annihilation and ruthless destruction from some very close quarters. Journalists also have a lot of learning ahead of them in the form of Swedish consul Raoul Nordling who did everything possible with words to save Paris from a senseless attack of high impact.
