Ozus' World Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
3/4
"While
Blind Spot
makes for a remarkable video exclusive, Junge's anecdotes overwhelm her feelings of guilt and desperation."

B
"Though it offers little new information, the very intimacy of the project gives it surprising power."

Frank Swietek
"The film does illuminate its subject, which is not Hitler himself, who remains a fairly unfathomable figure, but Traudl Junge."

Movie Habit
Marty Mapes
"Riveting in its simplicity."
Flick Filosopher
MaryAnn Johanson
