Absurd and unpredictable, but extremely scared of thinking

Hitler's journey into modern times is a big idea. Like other films in which historical figures traveled to modern times, the first half of the film is full of laughter caused by various conflicts. People in the front mistakenly thought Hitler was a comedy star and treated him as a joke. They didn't expect to get rid of the joke. Later, they accepted him, not only accepted him but also imitated him. At the end Hitler said to the person who found him, "You can't get rid of me, because I am a part of you, and I am in your heart." This is truly terrifying: thoughts are like a seed pierced in people's minds. The root cannot be removed. I have to say that Hitler is indeed a master of speech, propaganda, and incitement. In the movie, is he taking advantage of the people's aversion to populism that is too politically correct? Isn't this exactly the trick used by the real Hitler in history? I remembered a sentence I once heard: The government needs control, but it must always be alert to the people.

There are a lot of things you need to know when watching this movie, or you will lose a lot of fun:

1. What the hell is "Hebei Province"?
Since the movie "Destruction of the Empire".
There is a passage in which Hitler yelled at the generals at hand after realizing that the situation was gone. This passage is called "The Wrath of the Führer".
Among them, Hitler has a line in German:
Und doch habe ich allein, allein auf mich gestellt, ganz Europa erobert!
(I am alone, relying on my own strength, to conquer the whole of Europe!)
Among them is "Und doch habe ich allein" The pronunciation of is almost exactly the same as the Chinese "I'm coming to Hebei Province".
So there is such a stalk.

2 Martin Bormann (Martin Bormann, 1907.17~1959), Nazi "War Criminal No. 2", Secretary-General of the Nazi Party and Hitler's Private Secretary, he holds the money bag of the Nazi Party, known as "the shadow of the head of state." In the last days of the Hitler regime's dying struggle, Bauman became the second most important person after Hitler, the director of the Nazi Party headquarters. After World War II, Martin Bowman mysteriously disappeared. However, the Nuremberg International Tribunal still sentenced him to death in October 1946.



3 When the male protagonist and mother watched their own video, there was a vague poster at the back, which was the poster of Back to the Future, which verified the plot of Hitler's journey to the modern age.

The laundry here is "lightning cleaning", ironically Hitler launched a blitzkrieg to clean Poland


5 Scania (SCANIA) is one of Sweden's truck and bus manufacturers, founded in 1891 in Malmö in southern Sweden.



6 As the main initiator of the Second World War, Hitler was not only quite accomplished in politics and philosophy, but also liked art. In painting and architecture, he is not a complete layman. In his youth, Hitler tried to apply for the Vienna Academy of Arts, but was rejected twice. Hitler believed that he was rejected by a Jewish professor. It can be said that Hitler's anti-Semitism was first produced during the period.

9 The party that Hitler first joined was the German Workers' Party, and his party membership card was No. 555. In fact, when Hitler first joined the German Workers' Party, the party members counted him as only 55, but in order to bluff, the party membership card starts with number 501.







10 Many of the films were filmed with documentary techniques. Many scenes were actually produced when interacting with the public. Those mosaics or black bars were not actors but real passers-by. I really thought I was watching this one after seeing it. The movie shot in the movie, can’t help but wonder if it’s true, right? But there is a detail in the movie that tells us that all this is just acting.
