About The Night of the Long Knives
In June 1934, Hitler decided to eliminate the powerful leadership of the SA. With his pistol drawn, he entered the Hotel Hanselbauer in Bad Wiessee on June 30, where his friend Ernst Röhm and other SA functionaries were staying. The three-day murder operation within the SA's own ranks has gone down in history as the "Night of the Long Knives".
Directed by Marie-Pierre Camus, Gérard Puechmorel, The Night of the Long Knives leans on a strong ensemble — Céline Sallette, Johann Chapoutot, Ulrich Herbert — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about history titles of 2020.
