Watch VoirFilms. With the help of Hollywood, top Nazi Albert Speer tried to unscrupulously whitewash himself of his crimes in the 1970s. Speer gave long interviews to Hollywood author Jack Neuman and mimed the "good Nazi". After his release from 20 years in prison in Spandau, Hitler's former architect and armaments minister earned a lot of money with books about his time at the side of the dictator and his years in prison. However, a Hollywood feature film about his life was still missing. Speer received Neuman at his villa in Heidelberg.
