Herman Goering (Brian Cox) and other Nazi war criminals get their day in court in this detailed depiction of the Nuremberg Trials. After World War II, Chief Justice Robert Jackson (Alec Baldwin) travels to the bombed-out city of Nuremberg, Germany to preside over the sentencing of German officers who served under Adolf Hitler during the Holocaust. This program, originally aired on TNT in July 2000, features actual death camp footage, some of which was used in the actual trials. The story is familiar, of course, to anyone who saw the 1961 Spencer Tracey/Stanley Kramer opus JUDGMENT AT NUREMBERG.
NUREMBERG was nominated for a Golden Globe for Best Miniseries or Motion Picture Made for Television.
Alec Baldwin and Brian Cox were nominated for Golden Globes for Best Performance by an Actor in a Miniseries or Motion Picture Made for Television for their respective roles in the film.
