Bold subject matter, endless reverie.

Have hardly seen German movies, but the name is so appealing.

What will happen when a head of state who has committed monstrous crimes and murdered 6 million Jews committed suicide when he was defeated and committed suicide? This theme is easy to make curiosity lovers imagine.

Of course, this film is clearly beyond the level of curiosity.

The head of state who "starts from scratch" in the movie has opened the eyes of many people who have a stereotype of him: he always insists on walking among the masses, carefully listening to and recording their demands, hoping to help them realize a more ideal society.

At the same time, he can judge the problems existing in the current society more accurately than ordinary people. His speech on the talk show TV program made the audience who were laughing and laughed seriously, and some people even began to be willing to "support" this view. Go up like a "head of state" imitating an actor.

Is this still the devil Hitler we know? The movie tells us that this is the way the Führer is. In the second half of the film, an old German Jewish lady saw the Führer and recognized him as the real Hitler:

To put it bluntly, not all devils appear in black cloaks with scythes in their hands. And the devil can gain power, of course, not by the strength of one person:

We know that, geographically speaking, Germany is blocked by France and the United Kingdom in the west, and Russia (the former Soviet Union) in the east. confederation). Without Hitler, there are likely to be other "Tellers" in that particular era.

The film finally asks us a question through the language of the camera: will history repeat itself? When the current "Germans" have as much dissatisfaction and confusion about immigration, refugees and the social system as they did before World War II, will the "Führer" come back?

This film uses a pseudo-documentary shooting method, which makes the audience wonder what the "soil" of history happened.

The future peace still needs the inheritance of historical memory, and it needs the thinking that such wonderful movies can bring to everyone.

    It's too awesome. This is the model of an excellent comedy in my heart. I love it! The end is thought-provoking. The director is really powerful. Ambition + feelings + good control.
