Luftwaffe 1946

There is a new movie about his last days in the bunker coming up. But now the - let's call them "Ex-Allies" - are pissed. Why? The German director Oliver Hirschbiegel apparently showed him as "too human", and not as the maniac he is displayed as everywhere else. If it ever makes it to the states (which I would not doubt), it's title is "Der Untergang" (The Downfall).

Quite interesting. I think what most people will think when seeing the movie is "if I didn't know anything about hitler, then I may feel like I should sympathize with him as he dies, but because we all know that all he did was lie and propagandize, his actions on the outside was just a facade and his real insanity was deep in the inside". It's kind of silly how critics say that him petting a dog shows him as too humanlike, what do they want? To see hitler eating babies and foaming at the mouth? I think showing him as he really acted is the only moral way to show it.
