I just finished watching "The Wave" (yay, Netflix!). It's a German movie (subtitles) about a teacher who demonstrates to his students that rise of another 'Hitler' is possible. The teacher subtly, and not so subtly, applies authoritarian methodology in his teaching with amazing results. This movie has many great teaching points. There are a few scenes that might not be appropriate for some grades or high schools, but I think it could be shown with the proper pre-teaching and set-up. I may show this in my History 20 class in the Totalitarian Regimes unit.
