The Wave - A movie about cults

I saw this in elementary school and I thought it was great. I still do, so here it is on the sift. :)

Based on the real experience of a high school class in Palo Alto, CA in April 1967, whose teacher wanted to explain the rise of the Nazi party to his students.

I'm not entirely sure which channels to put it in, so feel free to add whichever you feel appropriate.

to the crying kid at the end -- don't worry, you can always join a legitimate cult like Christianity

^ i wonder if there's a magic threshold number, maybe 10,000, where a cult suddenly becomes a legitimate *religion?

also, cool to see early work from Bruce Davison. great actor.

i hadn't seen this one. according to the iMDb page, though, it's a made-for-TV, which explains that. nice pick.

this quote is highlighted as well, on the iMDb quote page, there:
"Strength through discipline, strength through community, strength through action!"

reminds me of a more recent film, that had a shorter but similar motto, for their cinematic fascist regime?

oh, and this also reminded me of Apt Pupil.
if anyone else hasn't caught that one yet, it's worth a rental.

Dear Videosift, Is this 46 minutes long or a 9 minute segment?

This is freezing up at 9:26 for me - it doesn't seem to be buffering. Damn! I was so glad to come across this, is this the movie where the cult circles the kid and they all chant "Bomb With Love"?

Nope, I can't get it past 9:26.

I saw this movie in high school. It's based off of a true story. The teacher ended up losing his job and several of his students needed therapy for quite awhile.

Everyone should see this movie especially the hardcore left and right party people here in America. You know the ones who call either side stupid or ignorant and the ones who have no love for their brothers on either side of the American political debate.
