Abstract
Abstract Steven Soderbergh’s The Good German (2006), while grounding itself in WWII, casts a wide net as it attempts to examine the role of memory, the difficulty of assigning guilt, determining justice, defining the past, and writing history.

This ultimately leads to a shift in viewer reception aimed at creating greater understanding and empathy.
