Triumph of the Worms

Leni Reifenstahl, documentary filmmaker of the Nazis before World War II, died today at the age of 101. Among the innovations Reifenstahl pioneered was using railroad car-mounted cameras to follow races during the 1936 Olympics in Berlin, which were captured for the film Olympia. But her earlier work brought her the most notoriety. In 1934, Reifenstahl filmed a Nazi Party rally in Nuremberg, producing the documentary Triumph of the Will. The award-winning film reveals then-revolutionary film-making techniques, but after the war Reifenstahl became inextricably linked with the Nazis and was blacklisted worldwide.

Greg and Mark both scored on this and movied up in the standings to 4th and 6th, respectively. Should be an interesting photo finish, as there are only 3 common names among the top 6 entries. The leaderboard:
