what if the axis instead of dropping bombs had dropped trillions of forged money?

No, scrap the DVD's and read some books. Honestly, if you get all your knowledge from reading books no wonder you don't understand the complexities of inflation. Documentaries result in armchair historians who think the spitfire won the battle of britain, and that Hitler was an evil person with some interesting colour footage. There's nothing like a few good history books in offering debate. I would even argue the internet is a better source of information that a documentary (obviously it depends on the documentary, but in general most are just more realistic than films, but don't put a scratch on a good book).
