The Burning Wall Ratings & Reviews
Nitrate Online
Elias Savada
...not a frame of film is wasted in telling its story of lives tortured, drugged, humiliated, and terrorized by fascist, pro-communist ideology.
Washington Post
Michael O'Sullivan
A balanced, thorough and well-documented chronicle of how one Germany became two, then one again.
TV Guide
Ken Fox
Beller's history of dissent in the German Democratic Republic is admirably concise and surprisingly thorough.
New York Times
Stephen Holden
As familiar as much of this history may be, to hear it recounted by those who lived it lends it a new emotional immediacy.
New York Post
V.A. Musetto
A frightening look at Communist-controlled East Germany.
Village Voice
Michael Atkinson
On the surface, Beller's film is an acute primer on mid-century socialist statism gone inevitably screwy, but beneath it, there's something to be gleaned about the psychology of German nationhood.
