"The Last Nazi" Theatrical Trailer

“The Last Nazi" is a different kind of Shoah-related film...where Bergman and Roth collide. Everything you need to know about The Last, the startling new film by writer-director Jeff Lipsky, is right there in the opening scene. Lipsky’s cinematic shorthand is deft and quick. "The Last Nazi" is that rarest of birds – a film of ideas, a fiction film with echoes of George Bernard Shaw, Iris Murdoch and, tellingly, Ingmar Bergman. The echoes of Scenes from a Marriage and Saraband are inescapable.” -George Robinson, Jewish Week Rebecca Schull’s ACTING TOUR DE FORCE is SPECTACULAR…TOWERING…STUNNING…EXCEPTIONAL…POWERFUL…SUPERB…OUTSTANDING…ELECTRIC…AMAZING… “Rebecca Schull is spectacular.” -Glenn Kenny, The New York Times “A bold movie…provocative, profound. (Rebecca) Schull gives a towering, fearless turn.” -Gary Goldstein, The Los Angeles Times “*** ½ *. The movie works…due to the raw appeal of the storyline. It’s the type of premise that simply makes one wonder what they would do in a similar situation. (Rebecca) Schull’s quietly commanding performance is a stunning piece of acting, in which the character seems to reveal new layers every time she’s on screen. This is also true during the film’s final shocking twist, a brave, bold move by Lipsky that leaves things hanging on an ambiguous note that is both daring and quite satisfying.” Randy Cordova, Arizona Republic “Jeff Lipsky, a career film distributor with a parallel path as an independent filmmaker, has a bold, brash approach to stark, plain filmmaking: rawness, bluntness, breathlessness in the face of incest, abortion, cancer, suicide and now, the Holocaust and Jewish identity. Some critics suggest Lipsky’s stories, lovingly cast and achingly played, should be composed as novels or plays, but that’s not what’s in front of us in each and every one of the movies he’s made. There are filmmakers whose work is sleek and slippery and flattering and formally conforming, but how many would have planned the ten-minute opening blind date in “Flannel Pajamas” (2006), or the brute, unvarnished, ceaseless monologue Julianne Nicholson has later on? (Or the concatenation of world-shifting confessions in “The Last Nazi”). The machinations and contortions and straight-up barefacedness of Lipsky’s screenplay for “The Last Nazi” make once more for eye-popping performances. An unvarnished vehicle for the exceptional range of nonagenarian actress Rebecca Schull.” -Ray Pride, Chicago New City News “An acting tour de force.” -Peter Debruge, Variety  “A gift to actors. To say that thespians live for opportunities such as this is an understatement, and (Rebecca) Schull, whose restrained underplaying only makes the material more powerful, makes the most of it.” -Frank Scheck, Hollywood Reporter
