Adolf Hitler

It's literally just a hut that there's a guy in with a radio for no reason other than that he's baited.

Yeah, and they're baiting, they need to go and find Mitchum because they need to go and tell him that Hitler's going to be offed.

Yeah,

Jürgens plays a major general who's one of the generals involved in Operation Valkyrie.

And that don't work.

No, no, it doesn't.

You know, that table doing the Lord's work for Adolf Hitler that day, as we both said during the watching of the movie.

But yeah, like that overarching plot is a good film in itself, but it's not, it doesn't work in this movie.

And I think it's important to remember also that it is a political project in the post-war era, right? I mean, especially when you think of Stunde Null and the German concept of moving on.

The German concept of Stunde Null is like zero hour, that when the Germans surrender... uh when when it's over when hitler's dead that's zero hour and then we move forward and the the initial period until the 68ers there was a vested interest in germany and put drawing a line with the past and saying no no no that was that we have we're moving on whether or not lessons were learned we're not doing this we move forward and definitely in adenauer's west germany the They don't want anything to do with the war.

And so the idea of, are we going to look at... collective guilt for belonging in the Wehrmacht, which would encompass millions and millions of men.

How do you rebuild a society if you've criminalized, you know, we're talking four, five, six million people? It would be very, very difficult.

He played Morrissey.

right at the start of his career um i think that i think tonally is going to be completely different to slow horses like that's not going to have a lot of humor in it it's a lot it's like nazi germany um he's playing a detective or a bull in the sort of start of the hitler reign so there's not a lot of joy and optimism in that show compared to this i i

It's kind of interesting.

I want to know, like, it's interesting to play River Cartwright and then James Bond.

A hundred percent.

And I know everyone's making the Eva Braun, Hitler's girlfriend turned wife in the bunker comparison to Natalie Harp.

And it's chilling, the parallels.

As someone who has, I've studied authoritarianism.

I've gone granular on Hitler, his personality, his psychology.

Eva Braun, let's just slow this down for people.

She was significantly younger than Trump.

Young, blonde, thin, like Natalie Harp.

So I don't view Israel as God's chosen people, special.

I certainly believe that God has a plan for the Jewish people, but I'm so tired of getting on X, for example, which has become like the wild, wild West, and people are defending Hitler.

People are saying Hitler was right.

And look, I have problems with my own government.

I have problems with the Israeli government.

That's apples.

The oranges is apples.

Yeah, Hitler may have had some validity.

But then the year was 1933, January, right? We know what happened in January 1933.

Adolf Hitler and the Nazis took power in Germany.

Adolf Hitler became the chancellor.

And a lot of shit happened from then onwards.

I mean, already before, but well.

But it was

not many, right? Yes.

And there were 165 women members or people in that parliamentary council to draft the new Grundgesetz and like part of that Grundgesetz is also sort of like sets out like what institutions do you have and how do they control each other and how do you like it's hugely important because again like this you need to do that in a way and like have the balance of powers right so that you don't get an Adolf Hitler and any Nazis into power again because that was the main for the dancehall of the Weimar Republic was that it was like that the democratic principles weren't strong enough.

It was a Nazi propaganda documentary.

So yes, while the stuff that she filmed was real, Hitler was real, the crowds were real, the speeches were real, the rallies were real, the documentary was pure propaganda.

And this one is the same, a Nazi propaganda documentary.

By the way, the Venice Film Festival, which also had a Mussolini award at the time, because it was a mechanism for the fascists to legitimize their propaganda.

you know, that completely, that creates weird pathologies, you know, and especially the Germans, like, they were, you know, the kind of, the kind of, like, soft-peddled Morgenthau plan that became their constitution, that's totally bizarre.

I mean, aside from the fact, aside from, like, the moral aspects, and aside from the fact that, you know, it's tailored to kind of destroy the will have people to perpetuate itself like that's bizarre you know you're like you're going to school and some guy or some lady is like reading off a lesson book that came from the department of the army like written by some crazy zionist educating you about how like educating you about how like you're part of this like murderous race of people you know who must atone to the jews because Your history from Meister Eckart until Adolf Hitler is about anti-Semitism.

That's literally insane.

That kind of thing made it impossible for people to trust in authority.

And I'm sorry, but the Russians, they're coming on all the time talking about, oh, the Nazis in Ukraine, blah, blah, blah.

Is this a Nazi state? Is that what this looks like to you? If it was an evil Nazi Hitler state, would 52,000 of the grubbiest, most Jewish-looking Hasidim you've ever seen in your entire life be flocking every year to the country? No, it's a Jewish...

It's a Jewish state that has a perverted version of European nationalism to try to cleave the Russo-Ukrainian population over to Zog.

That's literally all that it is.
