Paul, I think this is the concern that Yann Martel was addressing in Beatrice and Virgil.

World War Two was filmed in a hangar on the moon to give us an excuse to establish a British homeland in Europe.

BTW that Branagh movie--Conspiracy--is outstanding. It can be difficult and uncomfortable to watch but very much worth it.

If Adolf HItler was grinning, he'd look exactly like Shitt Romney.

Paul, not only are we in danger of repeating the Holocaust, but humankind already HAS committed several more holocausts since WWII. East Timor, Khmer Rouge, Rwanda, just to name a few.

Don't be so Eurocentric..

I was, like 3, going to recommend the film Conspiracy. And 'difficult to watch' is a good description. One, long, hideous dinner party. It's really an amazing film.
