However, Hitler did not drink
Synopsis
Nazi Propaganda Minister Joseph Goebbels is in charge of building public support for the Holocaust and for the war that Hitler will soon start. During a meal on November 9, 1938, Hitler is seen with a glass of beer. Adolf Hitler: [To Magda Goebbels while eating] For people like you, I will have skulls printed on cigarette packs to ban smoking. Smoking is just as bad as the animal carcasses that you enjoy so much and I cannot dissuade you. A scene with Holocaust survivor Margot Friedländer before the closing credits.
Teil – Fest der Völker (1938)
Represents Olympia 1. I had the opportunity to sit down and watch "Führer und Verführer" (aka "Führer and the Seducer") and I needed no convincing to watch this film from writer-director Joachim Lang. If you have even a shred of historical interest, then this is a film you might want to watch. Sure, most of us are familiar with the basic events of World War II and the outcome of the war, but writer and director Joachim Lang offers a glimpse into the machinery behind the man responsible. And it’s a pretty unforgettable and compelling one.
I have to say that I really enjoyed myself during the 135 minutes that the film ran
While the events and characters depicted in it are truly cruel and disgusting, it’s a key part of world history, and as such, it’s something we can’t and shouldn’t ignore. And for that reason alone, "Führer und Verführer" is a film that dictates that it deserves to be seen. Partly because of the storyline, but certainly also because of some very impressive and impressive performances. Leading actors Robert Stadlober and Fritz Karl, who portray Joseph Goebbels and Adolf Hitler, could be portraying some of the most infamous figures in history, but they do so in very convincing and impressive ways, I would say very realistic ways. They carry the film quite well with their acting and I sincerely hope they get some recognition for their performances in this film.
, especially since it contains some very difficult to watch scenes
Fritz Karl does portray Hitler disturbingly well, but it wasn’t as impressive as Bruno Ganz’s in the 2004 film Der Untergang. Regardless, the entire cast in this 2024 film gave great performances that certainly brought not only the storyline to life, but certainly the characters they portrayed. "Führer und Verführer" is a film that may not be suitable for every viewer, because it is an emotionally powerful and moving film, and the fact that writer-director Joachim Lang added real footage from World War II makes it even harder. But then again, just as the film ends with the statement: “It happened… and it can happen again.”, which resonates very truthfully, despite being a terrifyingly terrifying sentence.
And so this is without a doubt a film that I recommend you sit down and watch
I was not prepared for the film to be as gripping and gripping as it was, but that is what made the experience all the more unforgettable. My rating for writer-director Joachim Lang’s 2024 film "Führer und Verführer" lands at seven out of ten stars.
