by the way, academy awards ignore them

Rating: 8/10 (22 March 2005)

This is the best WWII movie ever, and i do not really see why they gave the academy award to Amenabar's "Mar Adentro (The Sea Inside)". Bruno Ganz as Adolf Hitler was the obvious most important performance for 2004 - or perhaps he should perform an American icon to receive the award? His acting was so impressive to me that i finally thought that he was *actually* the Fuhrer, even though i have seen him playing Damiel in Far Away So Close (Wim Wenders, 1993). But also: Just Germans themselves could have shown the real madness in Nazi people (think about Berlin being protected only by children). A 10/10, a must-see definitely.
