>>>>>does Triumph of The Will have anything to do with our Magner twins<<<<<

Hi Mike, dunno, you'll have to ask them. Think they are Austrian, though, and by the time Triumph of the Will was filmed, I think all the Austrian economists who were extent after the war had already exited, stage left (uh, make that right).<g>

If you are not a film buff, it is hard to explain why some films are worth the watch, even ones with repellant ideology. Triumph of the Will is one. Don't bother renting it, unless you just want to experience the historical aspect. The visual aspect can't really be appreciated on TV. Although since I got my little 41 inch Sony projection screen, I have scaled down my expectations and started watching things like Casablanca at home. I am not willing to plunk down $7k for HDTV.
