Just been watching the doc in the first post. Fascinating stuff - never knew Himmler was such a nutter - fancying himself the reincarnation of a 10th-century king, good grief. Interesting (and says a lot about Himmler's personal power, I guess) that Hitler tolerated his cultic bullshit to such an extent; but I suppose Hitler maybe took a purely pragmatic approach that anything that strengthened and inspired the SS must be a good thing.
I'm not too sold on the evil, doom-laden music that starts up every five minutes - just to remind us that the Nazis were, you know, a bit dodge, ethically speaking.
