Day 139 - Downfall (German)

"The film is written and produced by Bernd Eichinger, and based upon the books Inside Hitler's Bunker, by historian Joachim Fest; Until the Final Hour, the memoirs of Traudl Junge, one of Hitler's secretaries (co-written with Melissa Müller); Albert Speer's memoirs, Inside the Third Reich; Hitler's Last Days: An Eye–Witness Account, by Gerhardt Boldt; Das Notlazarett unter der Reichskanzlei: Ein Arzt erlebt Hitlers Ende in Berlin by Doctor Ernst-Günther Schenck; and, Siegfried Knappe's memoirs, Soldat: Reflections of a German Soldier, 1936–1949."



Well done but it is slightly dull towards the end of the film. I have to say though the actor that played Hitler did a remarkable job and I hope he earned an award for his performance. This film is kind of for the people that are interested in the history of war and want to see the other side of Adolf Hitler. The historical accuracy is there, they give more detail about the high command of the Third Reich that wasn't previously known. The acting from the supporting cast was great as well, I enjoyed the film. Also the scenery that they showed us was beautiful (escape for the Nazi flags of course).
I suggest this film to history lovers!
