Was Albert Speer a important figure in World War 2 In my essay I will assess how significant Albert Speer was to the running of the Nazi war machine and the Nazi regime.

The Horror is Not Seeing This Movie Little Shop of Horror‚ the movie that made me fall in love with musicals. Before watching this movie I thought of musicals as plays on film‚ with long drawn out singing segments you struggled not to nap during.
