MOVIE, "DOWNFALL"

watched the movie, "downfall", on netflix yesterday. its about the last days with hitler in april 1945. interestingly, it was difficult not to feel a human connection and feeling for the (bastard) germans and hitler in their bunker in berlin.

it is a german language film with subtitles based on the memoirs of his typist/secretary traudl junge. seems to be a reasonably honest portrayal of what occurred.


observing the architects of the wwii bloodbath up close sorta' obfuscates the damage they did by being responsible for the deaths of 2.5% of the world's population. even as you watch this is constantly on your mind.

excellent for its portrayal of human thinking. i'm sure most everyone like (bastard) germans are in their own personal fantasyland.

worth watching.
