World War II was a true blight in human
history and this amazing documentary shows the private life on Adolf
Hitler, filmed by Eva Braun, his mistress from 1932 to 1945 and
gives the viewer a unique look into their psyche. The documentary
chronically puts together a variety of footage that was filmed by
Eva Braun, her friends and family and to make things even more
impressive, much of this footage is in colour as Hitler wanted his
"secretary" to have only the best.
It also features a variety of other
military commanders of Hitler's Third Reich and seeing this dictator
smile and almost act "human" is a chilling experience. The creators
also give in-depth explanations of the life of Hitler as a child of
how he was abused by his father and give theories on his strange
relationship with Eva Braun.
Although their relationship was never
public, the close circle that Hitler had knew of this relationship
and on
the eve of the allies invading Germany, Hitler and Braun finally
married... only to commit suicide. It is quite strange how Braun is
almost oblivious to the nefarious crimes of The Third Reich, living
this surreal life... believing that she would become the next
Hollywood starlet and hoping that Hitler would make their
relationship public.
The documentary also features a great
propaganda film by Frank Capra which showcases some of the allies
tactics in the war which were also ironically used by the Germans.
This special feature shows the Germans as a people that cannot be
trusted... never... and that American soldiers should always be
vigilant in this country that tried to split the world.
Gripping from start to finish!
