The anti-nazi film contains at least one factual error. The Nazis in Germany never went after the Catholic Church as a whole. Over half of the German/Austrian population was Catholic, including Der Führer.
True, and Hitler spoke fondly of Christianity in general and Catholocism in general, which you should mention to any Christofascist acquaintences when they attempt to say that the Nazis were atheists.
Still it is a powerful film, and the parallels are striking.
