Downfall movie plot

2022-01-25 08:03
This is a documentary film that vividly reflects the last 12 days of Hitler's life, the last days of the Third Reich.
The Red Army of the Soviet Union had already invaded Berlin, Hitler and his mistress Ewa also hid in the bunker. Eva knew that she had come to accompany Hitler to Huangquan, but she did not regret it. Even after she refused to plead with Hitler for her brother-in-law, she and Hitler held their last wedding together.
Goebbels, Hitler's loyal follower, is determined to accompany the Führer to his death with his family. He had 7 children in total, and he and his wife were determined not to let their children grow in the sky without an empire. After Hitler and Eva committed suicide, they also committed suicide. It is very emotional.
The truth of history is reproduced scene by scene through the lens.

    This kind of film is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people

    Even demons such as Hitler have returned to the world at the last moments of their demise. Sadly, since the moment the Third Reich collapsed, mankind has begun a new round of confrontation; after World War II, there is no Prussia and Germany without Prussia can only be another power. The gun makes justice? Sorry I can only tell you that history is just a Prostituierte, let the winner go

Downfall quotes

  • [first lines]

    Traudl Junge: I've got the feeling that I should be angry with this child, this young and oblivious girl. Or that I'm not allowed to forgive her for not seeing the nature of that monster. That she didn't realise what she was doing. And mostly because I've gone so obliviously. Because I wasn't a fanatic Nazi. I could have said in Berlin, "No, I'm not doing that. I don't want to go the Führer's headquarters." But I didn't do that. I was too curious. I didn't realise that fate would lead me somewhere I didn't want to be. But still, I find it hard to forgive myself.

  • [last lines]

    Traudl Junge: All these horrors I've heard of during the Nurnberg process, these six million Jews, other thinking people or people of another race, who perished. That shocked me deeply. But I hadn't made the connection with my past. I assured myself with the thought of not being personally guilty. And that I didn't know anything about the enormous scale of it. But one day I walked by a memorial plate of Sophie Scholl in the Franz-Joseph-Strasse. I saw that she was about my age and she was executed in the same year I came to Hitler. And at that moment I actually realised that a young age isn't an excuse. And that it might have been possible to get to know things.
