Add to wishlist DetailsExisting reviews In this notorious Nazi propaganda historical costume melodrama, a conniving, ambitious Jewish businessman, Suess Oppenheimer, snares a post as treasurer to the Duke of Wurttemburg by showering the corrupt duke with treasure and promises of even greater riches. As the Jew's schemes grow more elaborate and his actions more brazen, the dukedom nearly erupts into civil war. Persuaded by the Jew, the Duke all but scuttles the constitution and alienates the assembly by lifting the local ban on Jews in Stuttgart. In a final outrage, the Jew rapes a wholesome German girl and tortures her father and fiancee. When the Duke succumbs to a sudden heart attack, the assembly of Elders try the Jew and sentence him to death for having "carnal knowledge of a Christian woman." Antisemitischer Propagandafilm über die historische Figur des Joseph Süß Oppenheimer. Geboren in den 1690er Jahren in Heidelberg, wurde Oppenheimer 1733 Finanzberater des Herzogs Karl Alexander von Württemberg. Mit einer rigiden Steuerpolitik ermöglichte er dem katholischen Herzog einen prunkvollen Lebensstil, brachte damit jedoch die Bevölkerung und die protestantischen Landstände gegen sich auf. Nach dem Tod des Herzogs 1737 wurde Oppenheimer verhaftet und in einem mehrmonatigen Prozess zum Tode verurteilt. Am 4. Februar 1738 wurde er vor den Toren Stuttgarts an einem zehn Meter hohen Galgen in einem eisernen Käfig gehängt. Excellent picture and sound quality. (105 mins.)
