1945. As the Russian Army closes on Berlin, chaos reigns
as the Third Reich crumbles. Hitler rages against his own
generals and the German people themselves, unable to accept
defeat.
The first German film in 50 years to deal with this period
of the war and features an astonishingly humanising performance
from Bruno Ganz. Controversially playing him not as the
usual caricature but a raging, shouting, spittingly real
Hitler This is devastating filmmaking outstandingly put
together in every department.
"The pace of a thriller, authenticity
of a documentary, the action of a blockbuster. . . a masterful
achievement" Sunday Express
