Charles Guggenheim quotes:

There was a war crimes trial because an American prisoner had been shot trying to escape. He had obviously been recaptured and shot, and that violated the Geneva Convention.

There would be a paragraph about some veteran digging tunnels for the Germans in a slave labor camp, or something like that. Finally I decided to look it up and go further into it.

Look to the Classics, History, to the Arts, for there is truth. Look away from the systems, the processes, the techniques.

I think he was explicit that it was a slave labor situation, but I was not alarmed at that point, because there were so many tragedies involved in that war. That was the first time I had any indication that something was sort of strange.

I have made more documentaries in my time than I think I care to remember, though I am immensely proud of all my work.
