DAMN those Germans can act!

Rating: 10/10 (20 June 2009)

One of the greatest films ever made - doesn't really make up for the rest of cinema about war (at least in the English language), almost all of it being propaganda or spectacle, one or the other. This film for a rare moment treats its audience with the intelligence we deserve - yes we know Hitler was a nutter and there's plenty of evidence to display what occurred during those crazy years in Germany. We don't need a lifetime of fiction and non-fiction slating him as a Demon. This realistic account will remain a definitive account of this war cabinet's last moments - if only more filmmakers were able to do this factual justice to important events of human history. I wonder when someone will make a film based on the work of Anthony Sutton who's research in the sixties documents demonstrable evidence of Wall Street and the Banks of England funding the development of the military infrastructure of Germany in the thirties and forties.
