"Good".
"'Good' stars Oscar nominee Viggo Mortensen as John Halder, a German literature professor in the 1930s, who is reluctant at first to accept the ideas of the Nazi Party.
Pulled in different emotional directions by not only his wife, but by his mother, his mistress and his Jewish friend, eventually Halder gives in to Nazism and becomes employed by the Party. As he moves up the Nazi ranks, his seemingly inconsequential decisions potentially jeopadize the people in his life with devastating effects. Selected for the 2008 Toronto Film Festival and featuring a masterful central performance from Mortensen, 'Good' is a powerful drama about choices, friendship and loyalty."
I saw this movie for sale at Aldi today for the princely sum of $4.99 Australian, I read the blurb^^ and it sounded interesting, so I bought it. Haven't watched it yet, but I think it should be a good one.
