Grant, Colin Hanks, John Slattery, Andreas Pietschmann, Leo Woodall By Joan Amenn The “banality of evil” was a phrase originated by Hannah Arendt in reference to Adolf Eichmann during his trial for crimes against humanity. “Nuremberg” explores the same banality focusing on a different Nazi nearly fifteen years prior to Arendt’s observations.
