The presentation of the trials is the most striking example of a visual style Berlinger employs throughout the series: sliding smoothly back and forth between elaborately staged recreations and real colorized footage, so that you need to pay attention to know whether you are looking at Hermann Goering or the actor playing Hermann Goering (Gabor Sotonyi). Berlinger is going for a seamless dramatic effect, and if it doesn’t always work as drama, it holds your attention. .... The unspoken case they build is comprehensive.
