Friedrich Nietzsche
![grumpy old Friedrich Nietzsche [1844-1900], possibly ticked off at having to wear this silly jacket](images/FNeitzsche-lapels.jpg) | short profile |
Friedrich Nietzsche wrote critical texts on religion, morality, contemporary culture, philosophy & science, with substantial influence within and beyond philosophy, notably in existentialism, nihilism, and post-modernism. Nietzsche's works remain controversial, partly from the uniquely provocative style of his philosophical writing.
"To call Nietzsche 'dangerous' is merely to appreciate him in full."
— Amazon reviewer Dilly, 2010

Friedrich Nietzsche credits [1931-2007] at Internet Movie Database
There seems to be not even one documentary film or TV program about Friedrich Nietzsche !!
Several films exist that mention Nietzsche, and several filmmakers have created fictional versions
of Nietzsche, but not even Biography or the History Channel have covered Nietzsche's life.
