Excuse me, do you....

andnbsp;

Say, the bunker?

andnbsp;

You speak English?

andnbsp;

This is my name there, James O'Donnell.

andnbsp;

I would like to see the bunker.

andnbsp;

Cigarette? Smoke?

andnbsp;

You're welcome.

andnbsp;

Thank you.

andnbsp;

In 1945, the city of Berlin
was Hitler's capital.

andnbsp;

And this bunker was his last address.

andnbsp;

He lived here underground for 105 days.

andnbsp;

I arrived here on assignment for Newsweek.

andnbsp;

It was just two months after Hitler's death.

andnbsp;

As I made my way
through the cold, dark chambers...

andnbsp;

I couldn't help but wonder
what had happened here.

andnbsp;

Finding the answer to that question
has taken me many long years.

andnbsp;

Most of the people
who worked in this bunker...

andnbsp;

spent endless years
in Russian prison camps.

andnbsp;

I hoped that those still living...

andnbsp;

could reconstruct
their personal experiences here.

andnbsp;

Each from his or her own viewpoint.

andnbsp;

I can't guarantee that what
you're about to see is historical truth.

andnbsp;

Memory always distorts of course.

andnbsp;

But I do believe their stories present
a psychological truth...

andnbsp;

and are, perhaps, as close as we can come.

andnbsp;

Let's go back to January 16, 1945.

andnbsp;

The dark chamber you see here
was soon to be occupied.

andnbsp;

The Americans are at the Rhine!

andnbsp;

And as for the British,
well, can't you hear the bombing?

andnbsp;

Speak up!

andnbsp;

There's nothing available. There's nothing--

andnbsp;

-Guderian.
-What?

andnbsp;

-He's going below.
-What?

andnbsp;

Hitler is going below to the bunker.
Notify your staff.

andnbsp;

And this will be used
for the conference room.

andnbsp;

This?

andnbsp;

All the rooms are small, Bormann.

andnbsp;

What have we come to?

andnbsp;

What's the trouble, Hentschel?

andnbsp;

It's only a 140-kilowatt generator here.

andnbsp;

It's got to power everything.

andnbsp;

The lights, the filter,
the pump for the spring--

andnbsp;

Spring?

andnbsp;

We get our water here
from an underground spring.

andnbsp;

But not to worry, Gen. Rattenhuber,
I'm genius with machinery.

andnbsp;

We've carried Frederick the Great
all over Europe with us.

andnbsp;

He's never without it.

andnbsp;

There will be no smoking in the bunker
at any time...

andnbsp;

those are the Fuhrer's orders...

andnbsp;

on duty, or off.

andnbsp;

All meals will be taken in the upper bunker...

andnbsp;

or the old Reich Chancellery mess hall.

andnbsp;

Questions?

andnbsp;

Dismissed.

andnbsp;

Maj. Guenter, have you spoken to him...

andnbsp;

about Zossen and about going to Zossen?

andnbsp;

The Fuhrer refuses to leave Berlin.

andnbsp;

It's only 18 kilometers away.

andnbsp;

Has the finest communications of any
bunker and it's seven times as big.

andnbsp;

He knows that, General.
He refuses to leave Berlin.

andnbsp;

I want all calls for the Fuhrer
to come through me.

andnbsp;

Does that include Dr. Goebbels, sir?

andnbsp;

No. But I will, of course,
control all access to the Fuhrer.

andnbsp;

-Understood?
-Yes, sir.

andnbsp;

Any message from my wife?

andnbsp;

No, we haven't been able
to get through yet, sir.

andnbsp;

Impossible!

andnbsp;

Welcome to Berlin, Reich Minister Goebbels.

andnbsp;

-Are you still at your country estate?
-Of course. It's good for the children.

andnbsp;

We have a swimming pool, tennis court.

andnbsp;

You know, the flowers
have just begun to bloom. Wonderful.

andnbsp;

-No air raids?
-So far we've been fortunate.

andnbsp;

Please inform the Fuhrer,
I'm filled with confidence.

andnbsp;

We will succeed.

andnbsp;

The red's definitely the ground

andnbsp;

This is ridiculous. I've seen
better switchboards in cheap hotels.

andnbsp;

It's all we have available.

andnbsp;

-ls there a scrambling device?
-Yes.

andnbsp;

-Where?
-Here.

andnbsp;

Hello, Rochus. Have you been able
to reach your wife yet?

andnbsp;

I'm still trying to get set up.

andnbsp;

What about Greta? What's happened to her?

andnbsp;

-ls she still in Berlin?
-Yes.

andnbsp;

I've been trying to get her
on a plane to Bavaria.

andnbsp;

The Russians, they tell me,
they're raping all the women.

andnbsp;

From what I hear, they're raping everyone.

andnbsp;

-Heil Hitler.
-Heil Hitler.

andnbsp;

Herr Speer, good to see you.

andnbsp;

Come along. I'll show you.

andnbsp;

Col. Von Below is waiting to see you
before you meet with the Fuhrer.

andnbsp;

-Maj. Guenter will show you.
-Yes.

andnbsp;

Thank you, sir.

andnbsp;

Welcome to our little tomb.
When did you get back to Berlin?

andnbsp;

-Last night.
-From the Front?

andnbsp;

-East Prussia.
-Bad as they say?

andnbsp;

Worse.

andnbsp;

The situation conference
is going on right now.

andnbsp;

It started shortly after midnight.
So things are getting a little more desperate.

andnbsp;

Maj. Guenter, would you make it known
that Reich Minister Speer has arrived.

andnbsp;

Yes, sir.

andnbsp;

-What do you think of the place?
-It's clammy.

andnbsp;

Thank you.

andnbsp;

Cold and clammy one moment,
and warm and sultry the next.

andnbsp;

It's not exactly
one of your architectural marvels, Speer.

andnbsp;

-I didn't design this one.
-Good. It also smells.

andnbsp;

We're 50 feet below the ground here,
which is 20 feet below the sewer.

andnbsp;

A little caution: Bormann isn't the
only one here who'd like to cut our throats.

andnbsp;

Now tell me, is it true...

andnbsp;

about the plan to destroy everything.

andnbsp;

The towns, the villages.

andnbsp;

-The plan exists, yes.
-But will he go through with it?

andnbsp;

Unless I can talk him out of it.

andnbsp;

You think that's possible?

andnbsp;

Excuse me. They've asked you
to join the conference.

andnbsp;

And here at Helmstedt,
Panzerdivision 6 and 1 2 have regrouped...

andnbsp;

with 27 new Tiger Tanks.

andnbsp;

We have most encouraging news
from Gen. Dietrich.

andnbsp;

He's repulsed the enemy
all along the sector, west of the Saar.

andnbsp;

The Luftwaffe reports the loss
of 629 aircraft in the month of December.

andnbsp;

However, in spite of this,
we brought down 87 enemy bombers.

andnbsp;

We still have four Panzerdivisions
fully committed to Budapest.

andnbsp;

They're confident they can hold the city.

andnbsp;

The two armies
who fought gallantly in Budapest....

andnbsp;

-How can we help Budapest?
-...have now regrouped.

andnbsp;

-We can't.
-They've been re-supplied.

andnbsp;

But Berlin's going to fall.

andnbsp;

When it does, the city
disappears from the map. Every week...

andnbsp;

they simply disappear.

andnbsp;

...as we're not at all certain
as of this moment exactly where we stand...

andnbsp;

I would call upon him, if you would,
my Fuhrer.

andnbsp;

Speer.

andnbsp;

The Fuhrerwould like to hear
the December production figures.

andnbsp;

The overall production of armaments
is down 23%.

andnbsp;

We are, however,
maintaining full production...

andnbsp;

of fighter planes and Panzertanks.

andnbsp;

Our greatest difficulty right now
is getting gasoline to supply them.

andnbsp;

Two of our largest hydrogenating plants
have been destroyed in air raids...

andnbsp;

as you well know.

andnbsp;

The production of synthetic gasoline
is at a standstill.

andnbsp;

Do you need more?

andnbsp;

Thank you, Speer. We've heard enough.

andnbsp;

Dr. Morell is with the Fuhrer.
It'll be a few moments.

andnbsp;

Good afternoon, Albert.

andnbsp;

Or is it evening?
You can't tell the difference down here.

andnbsp;

I'm sorry to keep you waiting.
You may go in now.

andnbsp;

-Sit down, Speer. Coffee?
-No, thank you.

andnbsp;

You're one of the few people
I can trust, Speer.

andnbsp;

Sit down.

andnbsp;

-Did Bormann send you the instructions?
-Yes.

andnbsp;

Good. You understand we want...

andnbsp;

complete demolition. I don't know how.

andnbsp;

-Fire, explosives, whatever it takes.
-Whatever it takes to do what?

andnbsp;

I mean, I can understand
the destruction of bridges...

andnbsp;

factories, and military installations...

andnbsp;

but surely you don't mean
houses and farm animals--

andnbsp;

Everything.

andnbsp;

I want nothing left to the enemy,
you understand? Nothing.

andnbsp;

But under such circumstances...

andnbsp;

the German people would face
utter starvation.

andnbsp;

We'll be thrown back to conditions
of the Middle Ages.

andnbsp;

Yeah.

andnbsp;

But should the war be lost?

andnbsp;

-That is defeatist talk. I won't allow that.
-The German people left--

andnbsp;

The German people that are left
would not deserve to live.

andnbsp;

The good ones will have died already
fighting for their fatherland.

andnbsp;

We must leave them something.

andnbsp;

We must leave them something.

andnbsp;

Some, no matter
how primitive, form of society. Something.

andnbsp;

I think you despair far too much, Speer.
We've had our setbacks from the beginning.

andnbsp;

And every setback
has always been a whiplash...

andnbsp;

driving us onward
with more determination than before.

andnbsp;

This time we will show the enemy
that we will not surrender.

andnbsp;

We'll never surrender.
We'll continue the attack, again and again.

andnbsp;

Ten times over, we'll continue the attack.

andnbsp;

Policy has been set. Carry it out.

andnbsp;

Heil Hitler.

andnbsp;

-Did you see him?
-You were quite right, Colonel.

andnbsp;

At one moment it's warm and sultry,
and then suddenly it's cold and clammy.

andnbsp;

Too bad.

andnbsp;

Under the circumstances,
I think I'll have a word with the engineer.

andnbsp;

See if we can't change
the atmosphere down here.

andnbsp;

No. Not the ventilation. Not the system.

andnbsp;

The Fuhrer's orders.

andnbsp;

I'm not allowed to keep the air
flowing in the conference room...

andnbsp;

-during military staff meetings.
-Why not?

andnbsp;

The Fuhrer believes that the air
passing through the blowers...

andnbsp;

produces excessive pressure into the ears.
He believes it reduces efficiency.

andnbsp;

Perhaps we can correct the situation.
Let's look at the main air vent.

andnbsp;

Filters are usually changed every month.

andnbsp;

We've been having a problem here
getting a proper fit.

andnbsp;

As you can see, the air intake
is almost completely concealed.

andnbsp;

-How's the filter removed?
-Just the four screws.

andnbsp;

Let me see if we can't get you
a better filter, Hentschel.

andnbsp;

I think that might help matters.
Thanks for your trouble.

andnbsp;

Whatever I can do.

andnbsp;

They're starting in again.

andnbsp;

The British bomb us at breakfast,
the Americans at dinner.

andnbsp;

It's a conspiracy, I think.

andnbsp;

-Anything else, sir?
-Yes, you can call off the air raid.

andnbsp;

Beg your pardon?

andnbsp;

Thank you, sir. Good night, sir.

andnbsp;

Want to forget dinner, go to the shelter?

andnbsp;

No, thanks.
I've had enough of shelters for one day.

andnbsp;

-Let's see if it gets any worse.
-Can't get any worse than the food.

andnbsp;

I'm sorry. Forgive me, Dieter.

andnbsp;

I think I've lost my appetite.

andnbsp;

I don't blame you.

andnbsp;

Tell me, how long do you think
Hitler will remain in Berlin?

andnbsp;

I have no idea.

andnbsp;

But if he stays here
long enough underground...

andnbsp;

there'll be nothing above the ground
for him to come up for.

andnbsp;

-You mean the air raids?
-No.

andnbsp;

I mean his scorched-earth policy.
He's committed to it.

andnbsp;

How ironic.

andnbsp;

He now appoints you
the agent of Germany's destruction...

andnbsp;

after years of being his master builder.

andnbsp;

-I refuse the honor.
-Refuse?

andnbsp;

-You did say "refuse"?
-I'm writing him a memorandum...

andnbsp;

stating clearly, precisely, in detail...

andnbsp;

that such a policy would prove catastrophic
to the future of the German people...

andnbsp;

and I refuse to implement it.

andnbsp;

What if he insists that you do so?

andnbsp;

Then...

andnbsp;

something quite desperate
must be considered.

andnbsp;

And I'd like your help.

andnbsp;

In that case, I could use a brandy.

andnbsp;

We could both use a brandy.

andnbsp;

-It's my last bottle.
-I'll try and get you another.

andnbsp;

You don't have to bribe me, Albert.

andnbsp;

You've got my head out of Hitler's noose
more than once.

andnbsp;

I'll do what I can.

andnbsp;

You may want to change your mind
when you hear what I'm thinking.

andnbsp;

Trust me.

andnbsp;

-Can we talk?
-It's safe.

andnbsp;

I want you to make some inquiries
to the Army Ordnance Office.

andnbsp;

Coming from the
Chief of Munitions Division...

andnbsp;

they will seem like
perfectly natural inquiries.

andnbsp;

-Concerning what?
-Poison gas experiments.

andnbsp;

They've been testing something new
called Tabun.

andnbsp;

From what I understand,
it can penetrate any gas mask...

andnbsp;

any filter put up against it.

andnbsp;

Albert, just exactly
what do you have in mind?

andnbsp;

I want to conduct Tabun into the bunker.

andnbsp;

To you, Albert. And to me.

andnbsp;

May we both survive.

andnbsp;

How do you intend to introduce the gas?

andnbsp;

Through the main air vent
near the Chancellery gardens.

andnbsp;

You can manage that without being seen?

andnbsp;

There are sentries posted. SS Guards.

andnbsp;

But they know me.

andnbsp;

It won't work, Albert.

andnbsp;

Tabun's only effective with explosives.
I'm quite familiar with it.

andnbsp;

A shell or a hand grenade would do it...

andnbsp;

but they would shatter the thin walls
of the air ducts.

andnbsp;

-And Tabun's too risky.
-What would you suggest?

andnbsp;

The old reliable: mustard gas.

andnbsp;

Mustard gas. How would you get it?

andnbsp;

It won't be easy. Just give me time.

andnbsp;

There's a bunker, underground,
below the Chancellery.

andnbsp;

No, it's impossible. You can't come here.

andnbsp;

Go to Munich. If you go to Munich,
I can arrange an escort.

andnbsp;

Be patient. The battle for Berlin
is just beginning.

andnbsp;

It may take weeks, maybe months,
but we shall be victorious.

andnbsp;

I promise you. I have no doubts.
We shall be victorious.

andnbsp;

Yes, I will.

andnbsp;

-Goodbye.
-Goodbye.

andnbsp;

If only my generals
showed such devotion, Doctor.

andnbsp;

What do you think, Sergeant?

andnbsp;

-Has Blondie got a whelp this week?
-No. Not yet.

andnbsp;

When she does,
I think we'll have maybe six pups.

andnbsp;

-Look at the size of her.
-Good dog.

andnbsp;

Yes. She's a smart dog, too.
Blondie knows a lot of tricks.

andnbsp;

Got one trick I'd like to know.
How to get good red steak at every meal?

andnbsp;

I told you a month ago.
The Eastern Front is like a house of cards.

andnbsp;

If the Front is broken at just one point,
all the rest will collapse.

andnbsp;

How did the attack fail? I'll tell you why.

andnbsp;

Incompetence, negligence. If Gen. Busse--

andnbsp;

He had half a division on the field.

andnbsp;

No ammunition left.
His equipment destroyed.

andnbsp;

-Why didn't he ask for more?
-Where? How?

andnbsp;

See, excuses, explanations,
that's all you give me.

andnbsp;

Gen. Busse isn't to blame. I won't allow it!

andnbsp;

How dare you speak to me that way!

andnbsp;

I'm fighting for Germany my whole life.
It's been one long struggle for Germany.

andnbsp;

How dare you?

andnbsp;

How do you dare? How dare you?

andnbsp;

I insist you cannot blame Gen. Busse.

andnbsp;

Then who?

andnbsp;

Who let us down? The troops.

andnbsp;

The troops did their duty.
Look at the casualties.

andnbsp;

How can you possibly blame the troops?
They had no chance.

andnbsp;

-Gen. Gehlen made it clear--
-Gen. Gehlen is an incompetent fool.

andnbsp;

His maps are idiotic and he should be
shut up in a lunatic asylum.

andnbsp;

If you want to send Gen. Gehlen
to an asylum...

andnbsp;

then you had better have me
certified as well.

andnbsp;

Gen. Busse is now at Gorlitz.
I will deal with him myself.

andnbsp;

Col. Gen. Guderian, I'm very concerned
about your physical health.

andnbsp;

I think that it requires
that you take six-week sick leave...

andnbsp;

to commence immediately.

andnbsp;

That'll be all, gentlemen.

andnbsp;

No. More than that.

andnbsp;

I tell you there's a great increase
in anti-Semitism...

andnbsp;

coming from the United States.

andnbsp;

They're beginning to wonder
just what it is they're fighting for.

andnbsp;

Of course, the English are sick to death
of this war.

andnbsp;

If it weren't for Churchill,
that Jew-ridden, half-American swine...

andnbsp;

there'd be no English fighting today.

andnbsp;

Churchill...

andnbsp;

the gravedigger of Europe.

andnbsp;

What a pity. Not a drop left for the Russians.

andnbsp;

-I'm sorry. I forgot to get you another.
-lt doesn't matter.

andnbsp;

I trust you did send
your memorandum to Hitler?

andnbsp;

Yes.

andnbsp;

And he said, "Albert, you're right
and I am wrong.

andnbsp;

"There'll be no scorched earth."

andnbsp;

No? He didn't say that?

andnbsp;

-There's been no response.
-We both knew that nothing would stop him.

andnbsp;

That's why I'm here.

andnbsp;

In that case, the small item
that you need is available.

andnbsp;

When do you want it?

andnbsp;

Friday.

andnbsp;

-What are you doing?
-Orders.

andnbsp;

All SS staff guards will take off-duty rest
in the communications rooms.

andnbsp;

-Why?
-Conversion.

andnbsp;

SS 6, 7, and 8 are being converted
into a casualty station in the Chancellery.

andnbsp;

We got casualties coming
into the Chancellery.

andnbsp;

How are we supposed to work
with people lying around all over the place?

andnbsp;

Sir!

andnbsp;

Yes?

andnbsp;

Where are you going?

andnbsp;

The bunker. I have an appointment
with the Fuhrer.

andnbsp;

You will find the entrance
through the tunnel.

andnbsp;

I thought I'd walk through
the garden tonight.

andnbsp;

Get some fresh air.

andnbsp;

Heil Hitler.

andnbsp;

Reich Minister Speer.

andnbsp;

-Yes.
-Come with me, please.

andnbsp;

Wait here.
Bormann will be here immediately.

andnbsp;

Bormann?

andnbsp;

-I have no appointment with Bormann.
-Wait here.

andnbsp;

-Hello, sir.
-Hentschel.

andnbsp;

-How are you?
-Fine.

andnbsp;

-Engine breakdown?
-Nothing serious.

andnbsp;

-Still looking for that filter.
-Thank you.

andnbsp;

By the way, you didn't mention
our conversation to anyone?

andnbsp;

-You mean, about the filter?
-Yes.

andnbsp;

-Didn't say anything to Bormann?
-No, I did not.

andnbsp;

The main air vent...

andnbsp;

-has been entirely surrounded by a chimney.
-Yes, I know.

andnbsp;

I supervised the construction.

andnbsp;

We did all of it in 1 2 hours.

andnbsp;

-On whose orders?
-The Fuhrer himself.

andnbsp;

-On whose orders?
-The Fuhrer himself.

andnbsp;

Come with me, sir.

andnbsp;

Speer.

andnbsp;

I wanted to be the first to wish you
a happy birthday.

andnbsp;

Thank you.

andnbsp;

I remember that wonderful birthday party
he had for you at Berchtesgaden.

andnbsp;

Yes.

andnbsp;

I'm afraid times have changed.

andnbsp;

Yes.

andnbsp;

What is it you wanted to see me about?

andnbsp;

The Fuhrer is greatly disappointed
in you, Speer.

andnbsp;

For some reason, you have not carried out
the policies set out to you.

andnbsp;

I don't know....

andnbsp;

Which policy do you refer to?

andnbsp;

The total destruction
of all towns and villages.

andnbsp;

There have been administrative difficulties.

andnbsp;

That is the language of his generals, Speer.

andnbsp;

I think you will find the Fuhrer expected
a little more of you.

andnbsp;

Just wait here for a moment.

andnbsp;

-Good evening, Doctor.
-And good evening to you, Albert.

andnbsp;

And how are you this evening?

andnbsp;

I'll be able to tell you better
after my meeting with the Fuhrer.

andnbsp;

He's quite anxious to talk to you.

andnbsp;

Perhaps, I ought to have
one of your injections first.

andnbsp;

It's all right. Go in.

andnbsp;

I was reading your memorandum.

andnbsp;

It's a very long memorandum.

andnbsp;

You say here...

andnbsp;

that, "We have no right
at this stage of the war...

andnbsp;

"to carry out our demolitions...

andnbsp;

"which would devastate the lives
of the people."

andnbsp;

Is that correct?

andnbsp;

I wrote the memorandum. Yes.

andnbsp;

Why? You say, "We have no right."

andnbsp;

You believe that?

andnbsp;

If our enemies wish
to destroy us completely, why help them?

andnbsp;

I think you should understand
that the policy will be carried out...

andnbsp;

with or without your cooperation.

andnbsp;

I am hoping there is still room
for reconsideration.

andnbsp;

No.

andnbsp;

My Fuhrer...

andnbsp;

I don't believe that anyone
has the right to tie...

andnbsp;

the fate of the German people
to his own personal destiny.

andnbsp;

Why do you continue to press the point?

andnbsp;

We must be able to make
some distinctions between military...

andnbsp;

-and purely civilian--
-I won't hear any more.

andnbsp;

You understand me?

andnbsp;

I don't want to hear any more.

andnbsp;

Tell Maj. Guenter to come in here, now.

andnbsp;

Do you remember at Berchtesgaden,
the hours we spent together...

andnbsp;

planning buildings
for the future German Reich.

andnbsp;

To me, you and l, we were like fellow artists.

andnbsp;

Speer, you and l....

andnbsp;

Then, we had a complete understanding
of each other.

andnbsp;

Put it on the table.

andnbsp;

That'll be all.

andnbsp;

Today it's your birthday, correct?

andnbsp;

Yes.

andnbsp;

I understand you asked for my photograph?

andnbsp;

Yes, my Fuhrer.

andnbsp;

I will treasure it forever.

andnbsp;

Good.

andnbsp;

I've signed it to you, personally.

andnbsp;

My hand shakes. You know....
My hand shakes.

andnbsp;

But I've signed it, to you.
I hope you can read it.

andnbsp;

May I read it now?

andnbsp;

I am grateful for this...

andnbsp;

pledge of our enduring friendship.

andnbsp;

Speer...

andnbsp;

you'll now inform every official
of every town.

andnbsp;

I want every gauleiterto know
that there must be total destruction.

andnbsp;

I've given you complete authority
over every one of them.

andnbsp;

They must all comply without question.

andnbsp;

In those areas where the enemy
is now approaching...

andnbsp;

there will be total destruction.
Is that understood?

andnbsp;

-I keep thinking--
-lf the war is lost...

andnbsp;

the people of Germany will be lost also!

andnbsp;

How dare you sit down in my presence!
Stand up!

andnbsp;

The people of Germany will be lost also.

andnbsp;

They will not need to think about survival.

andnbsp;

We shall destroy everything.

andnbsp;

You'll instruct them.

andnbsp;

You'll instruct all the officials
of all the towns, every gauleiter...

andnbsp;

total destruction.

andnbsp;

You will order them. Is that understood?

andnbsp;

You will order them. Total destruction.

andnbsp;

You'll answer me, please.

andnbsp;

Is that understood?

andnbsp;

Did you send in the sugar?

andnbsp;

Yes, miss, with the tea.

andnbsp;

Here, you. Take this in.

andnbsp;

If they want tea cakes this afternoon,
tell them we have those, too.

andnbsp;

Don't burn it.

andnbsp;

-Do you want some coffee?
-No. Nothing. Thanks.

andnbsp;

-Have you seen him?
-Who?

andnbsp;

Our Fuhrer.

andnbsp;

I spoke with him yesterday.

andnbsp;

His eyes, Franz...

andnbsp;

so clear and strong like always.

andnbsp;

The man is a god, Franz.

andnbsp;

And I will tell you right now, he will not die.

andnbsp;

No matter what happens,
Adolf Hitler will never die.

andnbsp;

That's good.

andnbsp;

How did you get it?

andnbsp;

I've traveled over 900 miles
these past three days.

andnbsp;

I've been to both fronts
and I have my sources.

andnbsp;

-You're sure you won't join me?
-No, thank you.

andnbsp;

I'm a prisoner here in this office,
these four walls.

andnbsp;

I even sleep here sometimes.

andnbsp;

-I envy you, Albert.
-You shouldn't.

andnbsp;

What happens now?

andnbsp;

Nothing.

andnbsp;

What does "nothing" mean exactly?

andnbsp;

No more assassination attempts.

andnbsp;

I think...

andnbsp;

-I was capable of only one.
-I see.

andnbsp;

You rise with Hitler
and you will fall with Hitler.

andnbsp;

All of us.

andnbsp;

I don't think the fate of Germany
can be severed from that...

andnbsp;

of Adolf Hitler.

andnbsp;

And you intend to carry out
his orders of destruction?

andnbsp;

No. I will warn the gauleiters...

andnbsp;

that if they attempt to burn down
their towns and villages...

andnbsp;

the people will rise up...

andnbsp;

and burn them.

andnbsp;

If Bormann has his way, he'll have you
hanging from the first meat hook.

andnbsp;

I can handle Bormann.

andnbsp;

And I can count a hell of a lot of corpses
who said that once.

andnbsp;

I'm sorry sir. The Fuhrer is in conference
at the moment.

andnbsp;

But Col. Von Below has asked to see you
while you're waiting.

andnbsp;

-Thanks Maj. Guenter.
-He's in the Chancellery dining room.

andnbsp;

Colonel.

andnbsp;

So, what are you gonna do?

andnbsp;

About what?

andnbsp;

I thought you would've heard.

andnbsp;

Bormann has been placed in charge
of the gauleiters.

andnbsp;

He told Hitler that you
deliberately disobeyed his orders.

andnbsp;

Bormann's quite correct.

andnbsp;

But if he controls the town officials--

andnbsp;

He doesn't control anything
outside of that bunker.

andnbsp;

I'm the one who goes to see them,
who listens to their complaints.

andnbsp;

I'm the one they trust
and they'll go on trusting me.

andnbsp;

May l?

andnbsp;

I hate to mention this,
but what if you're no longer alive?

andnbsp;

That is a point.

andnbsp;

Do you really think Hitler won't touch you?

andnbsp;

I'm going to find that out very soon.

andnbsp;

God, it's all sober now.

andnbsp;

I come from an ancient, honorable family.

andnbsp;

I can't understand how I ever got here.

andnbsp;

Hitler, Bormann...

andnbsp;

Goebbels...

andnbsp;

and the master of the imperial needle,
Dr. Morell.

andnbsp;

I'm told his injections contain
pulverized bull's testicles.

andnbsp;

Everyday at 4:00
he sits with his secretaries...

andnbsp;

at tea and crumpets.

andnbsp;

It's true. I'm quite serious.

andnbsp;

Excuse me, sir. You're requested to join
the situation conference.

andnbsp;

Thank you. I'll be right there.

andnbsp;

The Hitler court.

andnbsp;

I keep thinking about the Roman court.

andnbsp;

In the writings of Juvenal, he said...

andnbsp;

"Yesterday they were ruffians,
today they control our lives...

andnbsp;

"tomorrow they will wind up as keepers
of the public lavatories."

andnbsp;

They've crossed the Rhine
at three junctures, including Oppenheim.

andnbsp;

Gen. Patton, Third Division.

andnbsp;

Oppenheim?

andnbsp;

What units....

andnbsp;

What units are meeting them?

andnbsp;

We have nothing in the vicinity
at the moment...

andnbsp;

but there are five tank destroyers
from the camp at Siegen...

andnbsp;

They're on the move now.

andnbsp;

-Speer?
-Yes.

andnbsp;

You've heard the Americans advanced
into the Ruhr.

andnbsp;

If the Ruhr is taken, how would it affect
our overall production?

andnbsp;

Whatever remained
of our armament production...

andnbsp;

would scarcely maintain our forces
in the field for....

andnbsp;

The Third Reich is about to collapse.

andnbsp;

Losing the Ruhr would only hasten
the inevitable.

andnbsp;

I want all inhabitants of the Ruhr
to be evacuated starting tomorrow.

andnbsp;

-My Fuhrer.
-Tomorrow, that's all.

andnbsp;

-One moment.
-lssue the order.

andnbsp;

It's a staggering operation.

andnbsp;

Millions of people
under battlefield conditions?

andnbsp;

There will be countless civilian casualties.

andnbsp;

There will be countless civilian casualties.

andnbsp;

I'm supposed to go in there?

andnbsp;

If you would.

andnbsp;

What do you think, Speer?

andnbsp;

The little bitch has done very well.

andnbsp;

She has.

andnbsp;

Bormann is now in charge of the gauleiters.
Did you know that?

andnbsp;

-So I've been told.
-Do you know the reason why?

andnbsp;

Yes.

andnbsp;

You have no faith, Speer.

andnbsp;

You have no faith in the German people.

andnbsp;

But we have survived.
We have survived the Romans.

andnbsp;

We've survived the great battles
of the Middle Ages.

andnbsp;

We've survived the wars of religion,
the Thirty Years War...

andnbsp;

the Napoleonic War.

andnbsp;

We even survived the Great War itself.

andnbsp;

And you....

andnbsp;

You tell me that Germany
will no longer exist.

andnbsp;

Is that what you think?

andnbsp;

There has never been a war
such as this one.

andnbsp;

That is exactly why I pursue my goal...

andnbsp;

with such, yes, fanaticism.

andnbsp;

Battles are won, battles are lost...

andnbsp;

it is essential then
never to lose one's nerve.

andnbsp;

But we must be able to accept defeat.

andnbsp;

God, defeat. The defeat after defeat...

andnbsp;

knowing we shall emerge victorious
in the end.

andnbsp;

All right.

andnbsp;

Now, you disobeyed my orders.

andnbsp;

Are you aware of what must come from that?

andnbsp;

Is there any reason I should not take
the measures called for in such a case?

andnbsp;

I ask you not to grant me
any special consideration.

andnbsp;

I think it is clear...

andnbsp;

that my architect is overworked.

andnbsp;

I'll see to it that you go on leave at once.

andnbsp;

I'm in perfect heath.

andnbsp;

If you no longer want me
to continue as your minister...

andnbsp;

then dismiss me right now.

andnbsp;

You must convince yourself
that the war is not lost.

andnbsp;

Give me your assurance
and you may continue as you have been.

andnbsp;

My Fuhrer...

andnbsp;

the war is lost.

andnbsp;

The war is not lost!

andnbsp;

The war will never be lost!

andnbsp;

We will defeat them! We will defeat them all!

andnbsp;

I will destroy Bolshevism!

andnbsp;

I will wipe out the scourge and pestilence...

andnbsp;

of Jewish martyrdom.

andnbsp;

I will defeat them all.

andnbsp;

I will defy the entire world.

andnbsp;

You hear me?

andnbsp;

Speer, you have faith in me.

andnbsp;

If you say you have faith in me...

andnbsp;

then you may continue.

andnbsp;

I wish I could believe in victory as you do,
but I don't.

andnbsp;

And I refuse to join those swine
in your entourage...

andnbsp;

who tell you they believe in victory...

andnbsp;

when really they don't.

andnbsp;

Then I will ask you this.

andnbsp;

Do you still hope
for a successful conclusion?

andnbsp;

If you could at least hope
that the war is not lost.

andnbsp;

Surely you must be able to hope.

andnbsp;

That would be enough to satisfy me.

andnbsp;

You have 24 hours
to think over your answer.

andnbsp;

Money is no problem.

andnbsp;

-I mean, it's an architect's dream--
-The Fuhrer has just arrived.

andnbsp;

-Heil Hitler.
-Heil Hitler.

andnbsp;

My Fuhrer.

andnbsp;

Speer.

andnbsp;

Magnificent, Speer.

andnbsp;

Truly worthy of the Third Reich. Splendid.

andnbsp;

I'm afraid though, my Fuhrer,
the little village of Linz...

andnbsp;

will no longer be a village.

andnbsp;

Splendid.

andnbsp;

Good. I want construction to start
as soon as possible.

andnbsp;

Perhaps, we should look over
the cost estimates.

andnbsp;

Why?

andnbsp;

I know it's going to cost a great deal
of money and that's good.

andnbsp;

Nothing impresses the Americans
more than money, Speer.

andnbsp;

Always remember that.

andnbsp;

It's wonderful.

andnbsp;

Yes.

andnbsp;

What is it?

andnbsp;

Yes, well done, Speer. Well done.
My good architect.

andnbsp;

My genius architect, rather.
The world is ours. Thank you, Bormann.

andnbsp;

No, I don't believe it. You're still alive.

andnbsp;

-I told him the war is lost.
-And he didn't arrest you?

andnbsp;

-He gave me 24 hours to change my mind.
-And will you?

andnbsp;

-Blondie had puppies.
-How wonderful!

andnbsp;

Send a message to the troops:
"Fight to the finish. Blondie had puppies."

andnbsp;

Do you know...

andnbsp;

I think the man is actually fond of me.

andnbsp;

-He'll still have you killed.
-No.

andnbsp;

Why not?

andnbsp;

Because I'm going to tell him
that I support him with all my heart.

andnbsp;

-lncluding his policy of destruction?
-Yes.

andnbsp;

But there will be complications.

andnbsp;

Intolerable delays, bureaucracy at its worst.

andnbsp;

I doubt that we'll even get it working,
before Germany is totally defeated.

andnbsp;

You know what you're trying to do?

andnbsp;

Deceive the greatest master of deceit
of this century.

andnbsp;

-He'll believe me.
-Why?

andnbsp;

Because he wants to.

andnbsp;

I never doubted it.

andnbsp;

I knew I could rely on you.

andnbsp;

I knew it.

andnbsp;

Thank you, Speer. Thank you.

andnbsp;

The Fuhrertakes great pride
in the youth of Germany.

andnbsp;

You will serve your country
and you will serve your Fuhrer.

andnbsp;

-Heil Hitler.
-Heil Hitler.

andnbsp;

Get on the trucks.

andnbsp;

-How long till they reach the front?
-Tomorrow morning.

andnbsp;

It's not that far.

andnbsp;

Wagner!

andnbsp;

What's going on? What happened?

andnbsp;

Roosevelt died this morning.

andnbsp;

I tell you it's a gift from God.

andnbsp;

Fate has now removed
the greatest war criminal in history.

andnbsp;

The Jew-lover finally dies.
This is the turning point.

andnbsp;

This is the turn of fortune
we've been waiting for.

andnbsp;

There....

andnbsp;

Frederick the Great...

andnbsp;

in his worst days.
Almost finished, almost defeated.

andnbsp;

And then, a turn of fortune.

andnbsp;

He emerged victorious.

andnbsp;

You remember the day
you became our leader?

andnbsp;

The horoscope given to you by Himmler?

andnbsp;

The prediction of war, a series of setbacks...

andnbsp;

and then overwhelming victory.

andnbsp;

This evening I broadcast
the prediction to the people.

andnbsp;

Let them know.

andnbsp;

Let the world know
that miracle will now come to be.

andnbsp;

What is it, Bormann?

andnbsp;

Dispatch from General Zeidler.

andnbsp;

Vienna has fallen.

andnbsp;

Misch.

andnbsp;

-What is it?
-She's here.

andnbsp;

-Who?
-Eva Braun.

andnbsp;

Just leave it there, please.

andnbsp;

Thank you.

andnbsp;

-Oh, how beautiful!
-lsn't it?

andnbsp;

I have such a weakness
for beautiful clothes.

andnbsp;

That is because
you look so beautiful in them.

andnbsp;

You're too kind. But it isn't true.

andnbsp;

No matter what I wear,
I always look the peasant. Always.

andnbsp;

But then I don't complain, you see.
I think he likes me the better for it.

andnbsp;

-Yes, I will, General. I will tell him.
-Yes, sir...

andnbsp;

yes, I will convey.

andnbsp;

The Fuhrerwishes me to express
his appreciation for your birthday greetings.

andnbsp;

No, the rum.

andnbsp;

I told you the rum goes in first.

andnbsp;

What did you do
with those birthday candles, Franz?

andnbsp;

Well, they were.... Never mind I have them.

andnbsp;

Fuhrer's birthday in this place.

andnbsp;

How did we ever come to this?

andnbsp;

Good.

andnbsp;

How did we ever come to this place?

andnbsp;

What? Did you say something?

andnbsp;

Welcome to Berlin, Reich fuhrer Himmler.

andnbsp;

Reichs Marshall Goering
arrived only a few moments ago.

andnbsp;

Von Below...

andnbsp;

eating before the Fuhrer arrives.
Shame on you.

andnbsp;

Careful. Look in both directions.

andnbsp;

We're surrounded by assassins.

andnbsp;

Himmler and his bunker informant.

andnbsp;

Goering and his loyal gut.

andnbsp;

Speaking for myself,
I intend to outlive the Third Reich.

andnbsp;

Then why do you keep coming back?

andnbsp;

I'm sentimental about birthdays.

andnbsp;

What does Dr. Morell say?

andnbsp;

Nothing. He tells us nothing.

andnbsp;

As you can see for yourself, ever since
the assassination attempt at Rastenburg...

andnbsp;

the bomb came so close...

andnbsp;

Hitler has never been the same.

andnbsp;

From what I've heard, Fegelein,
from all sources...

andnbsp;

I don't think we can depend on him
much longer.

andnbsp;

Will he make it all right?

andnbsp;

You have my promise. He'll be there.

andnbsp;

The Luftwaffe can't fly without petrol, Speer.

andnbsp;

I think that's quite obvious.

andnbsp;

What's equally obvious is that the Ruhr
is now cut off from the rest of Germany.

andnbsp;

There are no fuel supplies reaching any
of the major cities including Berlin.

andnbsp;

What we have in storage
I've allocated to the hospitals.

andnbsp;

The hospitals?

andnbsp;

Yes.

andnbsp;

-Those are Hitler's orders?
-No.

andnbsp;

You've taken it upon yourself--

andnbsp;

I've been taking quite a lot upon myself,
these days. Haven't we all?

andnbsp;

The time has come, now...

andnbsp;

to negotiate peace.

andnbsp;

You mean without Hitler?

andnbsp;

I've been in contact
with Count Bernadotte of Sweden.

andnbsp;

Bernadotte? Does he have the authority?

andnbsp;

He has the contacts, Fegelein.

andnbsp;

But he's a very simple man.

andnbsp;

He has no understanding
of the Jewish problem, for instance.

andnbsp;

He wants his countrymen
returned from the concentration camps.

andnbsp;

Can't that be arranged?

andnbsp;

I've agreed to release 1,000 Jewish women.

andnbsp;

If they can be designated
Polish instead of Jewish.

andnbsp;

I must be cautious.

andnbsp;

Yes, keep in contact as long as you can.

andnbsp;

Thank you.

andnbsp;

Thank you.

andnbsp;

Yes, Colonel. Thank you very much.

andnbsp;

The Soviets are storming Rudersdorf,
on the outskirts of Berlin.

andnbsp;

Friends...

andnbsp;

Ioyal friends...

andnbsp;

I know how difficult it was
for you to come here today...

andnbsp;

believe me...

andnbsp;

your devotion touches my heart.

andnbsp;

There have been questions,
I know, about my health.

andnbsp;

Well, you see me now.

andnbsp;

It is true there is a certain.... I have
a certain trembling in my arm and my legs...

andnbsp;

but I can assure you, good friends...

andnbsp;

the trembling has not reached
my head or my heart. No.

andnbsp;

My heart will never tremble.

andnbsp;

Never.

andnbsp;

And in the weeks to come...

andnbsp;

And in the weeks to come...

andnbsp;

we will drive the enemy from our country...

andnbsp;

and we have the greatest weapon of all...

andnbsp;

the Teutonic fury of the German people.

andnbsp;

We will not be defeated.
We will fight them to the last soldier...

andnbsp;

to the last tank,
to the last aircraft they possess.

andnbsp;

We shall not be defeated.

andnbsp;

We shall not be defeated.

andnbsp;

Thank you. Long live Germany.

andnbsp;

What is it?

andnbsp;

Tell me, what is it?

andnbsp;

The Russians have just entered
the borders of Copenik and Spandau.

andnbsp;

I regret to say that Berlin is now closed
on three sides.

andnbsp;

Gen. Steiner.

andnbsp;

Order General Steiner's Panzer Corps
to counterattack at once.

andnbsp;

He has fewer than 1 1,000 men.

andnbsp;

I want all the Air Force personnel
placed at the disposal of General Steiner.

andnbsp;

If any commander holds back his forces...

andnbsp;

he will forfeit his life in five hours.
Tell General Koller...

andnbsp;

that he will guarantee with his head
that the last man will be thrown in.

andnbsp;

It's not possible.

andnbsp;

How can Steiner counterattack?
He's having enough trouble retreating.

andnbsp;

You know, I know
there'll be no counterattack.

andnbsp;

With or without orders
it will never be attempted.

andnbsp;

But how can one possibly....

andnbsp;

Who's responsible for the breakthrough?

andnbsp;

It was the 56th Panzer.
They couldn't hold them back.

andnbsp;

General Weilding.

andnbsp;

Issue an order
for his immediate arrest and execution.

andnbsp;

Fuhrer!

andnbsp;

All officers who do not press the attack...

andnbsp;

will carry a sign stating, "l am a deserter...

andnbsp;

"and I declined to defend
German women and children."

andnbsp;

You will then hang them
from the nearest tree.

andnbsp;

Good soldier, General.

andnbsp;

What's your name?

andnbsp;

-Kruger.
-Kruger.

andnbsp;

Wilhelm Kruger, my Fuhrer.

andnbsp;

-Kruger.
-Yes.

andnbsp;

I wish my generals had your courage.

andnbsp;

-Thank you, my Fuhrer.
-Good boy, yes.

andnbsp;

Joseph? Can you hear me?

andnbsp;

I can hear you, Magda.

andnbsp;

What is it now, Joseph? I came in
from the garden, what do you want?

andnbsp;

I told you I'd let you know
when I felt the time had come.

andnbsp;

Magda, did you hear me?

andnbsp;

Yes.

andnbsp;

You haven't changed your mind?

andnbsp;

I'll pack up and leave in the morning.

andnbsp;

I meant about the children.

andnbsp;

-No.
-Have you decided what to tell them?

andnbsp;

That they are going to visit the Fuhrer.
They adore him. You know that?

andnbsp;

Well, until tomorrow then.

andnbsp;

Until tomorrow.

andnbsp;

From the north at Eberswalde...

andnbsp;

from the south at Felstehausen.

andnbsp;

The Russians are advancing
at every defensive stronghold....

andnbsp;

My Fuhrer...

andnbsp;

I think it would be most prudent now
if we transferred.

andnbsp;

If we moved, all of us to Berchtesgaden.

andnbsp;

No.

andnbsp;

We have aircraft standing by.

andnbsp;

No, we'll stay here in Berlin.

andnbsp;

Yes, my Fuhrer.

andnbsp;

-Perhaps....
-Yes.

andnbsp;

Perhaps some other members of the staff
can be transferred.

andnbsp;

No, it's impossible. I can't leave right now.

andnbsp;

But listen carefully...

andnbsp;

I found a wonderful place for you
and the children.

andnbsp;

I'm sending off written instructions.

andnbsp;

You'll be posing as a director
of children seeking refuge.

andnbsp;

I've taken six children
from a party kindergarten...

andnbsp;

to make the group look entirely plausible.

andnbsp;

No, I don't know when I'll see you.

andnbsp;

He's determined to stay here
and take over the defense of the city.

andnbsp;

I will. Have courage.

andnbsp;

Take care of the children.

andnbsp;

-I just came to say goodbye.
-You?

andnbsp;

-You're leaving, too?
-Don't ask me why.

andnbsp;

Perhaps the Fuhrer
just doesn't care anymore.

andnbsp;

Dr. Haase is taking my place.
I'm grateful to be leaving.

andnbsp;

What a pity that you can't come with me.

andnbsp;

Fuhrer.

andnbsp;

Two of the secretaries
wish to speak with you.

andnbsp;

They're waiting.

andnbsp;

We have a request, my Fuhrer.

andnbsp;

We ask to be allowed
to remain here with you.

andnbsp;

Thank you, my Fuhrer.

andnbsp;

Hello, Father.

andnbsp;

-We picked flowers at home.
-This is from our garden.

andnbsp;

Goodbye, Johannes.

andnbsp;

Oh, yes, goodbye, Ribbald. Do be careful.

andnbsp;

Goodbye, Sergeant.

andnbsp;

-I'm on my way.
-Yes, good luck.

andnbsp;

How long will you stay?

andnbsp;

As long as I'm assigned here.

andnbsp;

To tell you the truth,
I'm glad to be getting out.

andnbsp;

Yes, but you haven't the same loyalty
as myself...

andnbsp;

because you don't know the Fuhrer as I do.

andnbsp;

Being a member of his personal staff...

andnbsp;

his chief valet, and being
a highly decorated soldier...

andnbsp;

I consider my position here
to be a great honor.

andnbsp;

Well, whatever happens,
I wish you well, Rochus.

andnbsp;

Yes. Godspeed.

andnbsp;

You getting a new assistant?

andnbsp;

No, 24-hour duty.

andnbsp;

Me, too.

andnbsp;

Liars, tell us. Lies!

andnbsp;

-You! You have betrayed me!
-No, Fuhrer.

andnbsp;

Where's General Steiner?

andnbsp;

Bring me General Steiner, here at once.

andnbsp;

We've tried to contact him.
But we think he's been captured.

andnbsp;

Where's the Air Force?

andnbsp;

The airfields are completely covered now
by enemy fighters.

andnbsp;

-We can't afford--
-Do you hear that?

andnbsp;

The Air Force is superfluous.
So what do we need them for?

andnbsp;

String them up at once.

andnbsp;

String them up.
Liars, traitors, cut-ups and all of you.

andnbsp;

-lt is vital you leave the bunker immediately.
-Why?

andnbsp;

If you're to remain
in command of the Reich...

andnbsp;

then you must go
to Berchtesgaden immediately.

andnbsp;

I will not go to Berchtesgaden!

andnbsp;

You and all of your incompetents
can go to hell!

andnbsp;

I will stay in Berlin!

andnbsp;

Do you hear me? I will stay in Berlin.

andnbsp;

The Army has betrayed me.

andnbsp;

I will fight in Berlin.
My orders were not carried out.

andnbsp;

I will fight to my last breath.

andnbsp;

I will die in Berlin.

andnbsp;

The Third Reich has totally failed.

andnbsp;

I'll die in Berlin.

andnbsp;

I've been betrayed.

andnbsp;

The war is lost.

andnbsp;

The war is....

andnbsp;

-Excuse me, are you Hentschel?
-Yes.

andnbsp;

I'm Dr. Haase.
We've met at the Berchtesgaden, I believe.

andnbsp;

-I need your help.
-My help?

andnbsp;

We've taken a number of wounded
into the Chancellery...

andnbsp;

and set up an emergency casualty station.

andnbsp;

But there isn't enough water to go around.

andnbsp;

I understand the water comes from
an underground spring here in the bunker.

andnbsp;

-That's right.
-Could you possibly divert some of it?

andnbsp;

I could set up some makeshift hoses.

andnbsp;

Thank you.

andnbsp;

Has this been cleared with Bormann?

andnbsp;

It's been cleared with God.

andnbsp;

Nurse!

andnbsp;

Easy, now.

andnbsp;

All right, now.

andnbsp;

You're getting your water.

andnbsp;

Dr. Schenck.

andnbsp;

-Did you talk to Hitler?
-No.

andnbsp;

Well, his condition is getting worse.

andnbsp;

There, now.

andnbsp;

Get him morphine, immediately.

andnbsp;

Oh, no!

andnbsp;

The rumors you hear are quite correct.

andnbsp;

Think the Fuhrer has long to live?

andnbsp;

At this point...

andnbsp;

I think the question is academic.

andnbsp;

I'll die for you

andnbsp;

I'll die for you

andnbsp;

Hey, you. My sweetheart!

andnbsp;

Don't you wanna go away, too?

andnbsp;

What is it they say now?

andnbsp;

I'd rather have
a Russian soldier on my belly...

andnbsp;

than a British bomb on my head?

andnbsp;

What is it?

andnbsp;

-What happened to Col. Fegelein?
-He's drunk.

andnbsp;

I can see that he's drunk.

andnbsp;

Why have they brought him in?

andnbsp;

He's been absent for three days.
I put the call through myself...

andnbsp;

to his Berlin apartment,
they just picked him up.

andnbsp;

-What will they do to him?
-Not much.

andnbsp;

Well, for desertion?

andnbsp;

He's married to Eva Braun's sister.

andnbsp;

How long were you there in the apartment?

andnbsp;

Where is the woman?

andnbsp;

Answer me.

andnbsp;

Pearls.

andnbsp;

Jewels.

andnbsp;

Tell me, General.

andnbsp;

You were not by any chance on your way
out of Berlin when we found you?

andnbsp;

I have nothing to say.

andnbsp;

Was he alone?

andnbsp;

No, he had a woman with him.

andnbsp;

She got away.

andnbsp;

There was a woman with him?

andnbsp;

She may have been a spy.

andnbsp;

Together, they may have been responsible
for the leaks to the enemy lately.

andnbsp;

He had a woman with him? Fegelein?

andnbsp;

He was obviously about to leave Berlin.

andnbsp;

No.

andnbsp;

I think it's a case of desertion.

andnbsp;

Interrogate him further.

andnbsp;

For what purpose?

andnbsp;

Do you hear me?

andnbsp;

Yes, my Fuhrer. And then?

andnbsp;

-Release him.
-Release him?

andnbsp;

-Release him.
-Release him?

andnbsp;

He's Himmler's liaison man.
I think we must defer to that.

andnbsp;

There's no proof, anyway.

andnbsp;

His wife is having a baby.
Fegelein's wife is having a baby.

andnbsp;

-Having a baby?
-Eva told me yesterday.

andnbsp;

His wife would be very upset
if something should happen to him.

andnbsp;

There is an urgent communication.

andnbsp;

I've been asked by Gen. Mohnke
to give it to you immediately.

andnbsp;

Treachery!

andnbsp;

Have you heard?

andnbsp;

-We just heard it on short wave.
-Heard what?

andnbsp;

Himmler has been negotiating
for a peace settlement.

andnbsp;

He's offered to surrender
the western armies to Eisenhower.

andnbsp;

My God, the swine!

andnbsp;

The stinking swine!

andnbsp;

My Fuhrer, I beg you...

andnbsp;

we can't allow a traitor to succeed you.

andnbsp;

We've got to leave
for Berchtesgaden at once.

andnbsp;

We have aircraft standing by.

andnbsp;

You have only to give the word.

andnbsp;

What should we do with Gen. Fegelein?

andnbsp;

The passports, the jewels.

andnbsp;

He was on his way to join Himmler.

andnbsp;

Shall we keep him under arrest?

andnbsp;

No.

andnbsp;

But, he will take off immediately.
He'll leave Berlin as soon as possible.

andnbsp;

Gen. Fegelein...

andnbsp;

is not going anywhere.

andnbsp;

"The wolf said, 'My friends...

andnbsp;

"'it is not l...

andnbsp;

"'who killed the lamb.

andnbsp;

"'It's him.'

andnbsp;

"He said, 'He looked like me."'

andnbsp;

Hey!

andnbsp;

-Sir!
-Maj. Guenter.

andnbsp;

Bormann would like to see you immediately.

andnbsp;

Where is everybody?
What happened to all the guards?

andnbsp;

Most of them are out fighting for the city.

andnbsp;

Albert!

andnbsp;

How good it is of you to come here.

andnbsp;

I was delighted to hear you were coming
to see the Fuhrer.

andnbsp;

I've only come to say goodbye.

andnbsp;

Exactly.

andnbsp;

It's a question of leaving...

andnbsp;

of getting out of Berlin
and going to Berchtesgaden.

andnbsp;

The Fuhrervalues your opinion, Albert.

andnbsp;

You must try to convince him to go.

andnbsp;

We have such little time left.

andnbsp;

You must speak to him.

andnbsp;

He will listen to you, I'm sure.

andnbsp;

I'm sure he will.

andnbsp;

Would you do that?

andnbsp;

If there's one man left in the Reich
I know that I can count on...

andnbsp;

it is you, Albert.

andnbsp;

Thank you.

andnbsp;

Speer?

andnbsp;

What do you think?

andnbsp;

Linz.

andnbsp;

We could have made it...

andnbsp;

the capital
of our National Socialist Party. Linz.

andnbsp;

It would have been a German Budapest.

andnbsp;

Linz, the place of my youth.

andnbsp;

Many years ago.

andnbsp;

Do you remember
the great bell tower of the meeting hall...

andnbsp;

and the marble crypt for my burial place?

andnbsp;

They told me it would cost
a great deal of money to build...

andnbsp;

a new metropolis
on the banks of the Danube.

andnbsp;

What do I care for money?

andnbsp;

I've never acquired anything
of value in my life.

andnbsp;

I have nothing.

andnbsp;

I have nothing.

andnbsp;

A new Germania!

andnbsp;

A new capital for the German people.

andnbsp;

It's all a dream.

andnbsp;

I have nothing.

andnbsp;

What might have been, Speer.

andnbsp;

They're trying to persuade me
to fly to Berchtesgaden.

andnbsp;

Jodl and the others. Have you heard?

andnbsp;

Yes.

andnbsp;

I'd like your opinion, please.

andnbsp;

It's my opinion
that the leader of the German people...

andnbsp;

should remain here, in Berlin.

andnbsp;

He should end his life...

andnbsp;

in the German capital.

andnbsp;

Not in some vacation chalet.

andnbsp;

Yes, my friend. Goebbels agrees with you.

andnbsp;

I cannot, of course,
join in the fighting myself...

andnbsp;

I might fall into the hands of the Russians,
you understand?

andnbsp;

I would be brought to Moscow,
and then caged in a zoo.

andnbsp;

They're not gonna cage me in a zoo.

andnbsp;

They're not gonna mutilate my corpse.

andnbsp;

No.

andnbsp;

I've issued orders...

andnbsp;

that my body be...

andnbsp;

cremated upon my death.

andnbsp;

Believe me Speer, it is easy for me
to put an end to my life.

andnbsp;

One brief moment.

andnbsp;

I'm free of everything.

andnbsp;

I'm free of everything.

andnbsp;

My Fuhrer...

andnbsp;

there's something I feel I must tell you...

andnbsp;

before we part today.

andnbsp;

These past four weeks...

andnbsp;

I've deceived you.

andnbsp;

I've not carried out
your policy of destruction.

andnbsp;

Eva....

andnbsp;

What Eva?

andnbsp;

Eva Braun.

andnbsp;

She has decided to end her life here...

andnbsp;

by my side.

andnbsp;

My Fuhrer, did you hear
what I had to say to you?

andnbsp;

Don't leave here, Speer, will you?

andnbsp;

Without saying goodbye to me.

andnbsp;

There you are, Albert.

andnbsp;

I was afraid you would leave
without saying goodbye.

andnbsp;

I even gave orders to the SS Guards...

andnbsp;

I told them, "You're not to allow
Albert Speer to leave until he's seen me."

andnbsp;

You look lovely, just the same as always.

andnbsp;

I see no point in going around
looking like a death mask. Come in.

andnbsp;

I hope you like it. You should since
you designed all the furniture yourself.

andnbsp;

I know the room is a little small,
but I just had to have them with me.

andnbsp;

-Champagne?
-Thank you.

andnbsp;

Sit, please.

andnbsp;

Moet-Chandon. Only the best.

andnbsp;

I must warn you.
Everything tastes rather damp and musty.

andnbsp;

Can't be helped.

andnbsp;

Heil Hitler.

andnbsp;

Heil Hitler.

andnbsp;

Our farewell drink.

andnbsp;

I'm so glad you came.

andnbsp;

You know, Bormann thought you might
be working against the Fuhrer.

andnbsp;

But you coming here now proves
that you aren't, doesn't it?

andnbsp;

Adolf wanted me to go to Munich,
but I refused.

andnbsp;

Yes, he told me that you....

andnbsp;

Well, I'm really quite happy here.

andnbsp;

I mean, it isn't so terrible.

andnbsp;

If only, I didn't have to look
at Bormann's face every other moment.

andnbsp;

I've never liked that man.

andnbsp;

It's all so terrible, Albert.

andnbsp;

Why do so many people have to be killed.

andnbsp;

And all for nothing.

andnbsp;

Aunt Eva, I've lost Chichi.

andnbsp;

-Who?
-My doll, did I leave her here?

andnbsp;

No, I don't think so.
Why don't you go ask Traudl.

andnbsp;

The Goebbels children are here?

andnbsp;

Yes, they're staying.

andnbsp;

Goodnight.

andnbsp;

You can read for two more minutes.

andnbsp;

Sweetheart, finish up for me, will you?

andnbsp;

Albert, I heard you might be coming.

andnbsp;

It's quite an unusual place, isn't it?

andnbsp;

The children are adapting very well, I think.

andnbsp;

How's your family, Albert?

andnbsp;

How's your family, Albert?

andnbsp;

They're all at Berchtesgaden.

andnbsp;

Look, Magda.

andnbsp;

There's still enough time.

andnbsp;

I can arrange for barges.

andnbsp;

Barges?

andnbsp;

On the Havel River.

andnbsp;

They can take you to the Elbe,
to the Americans.

andnbsp;

Don't you know, Albert.
We have no intention of leaving here.

andnbsp;

But you have to realize,
when the Russians arrive--

andnbsp;

My husband and I have decided
to die with the Fuhrer.

andnbsp;

I was thinking of the children.

andnbsp;

So am l.

andnbsp;

Our lives have no further meaning
without Hitler.

andnbsp;

But, Magda....

andnbsp;

The children are so young and--

andnbsp;

And far too good for the kind of life
that will come after us.

andnbsp;

Damn it, Magda!

andnbsp;

How do you know what kind of life
is coming after you?

andnbsp;

Don't be apprehensive, Albert.

andnbsp;

Look.

andnbsp;

Yesterday, the Fuhrertook off
his golden party badge and gave it to me.

andnbsp;

Can you imagine, Albert.

andnbsp;

We're so proud
to be ending our lives with him.

andnbsp;

I look upon it as a precious gift of fate.

andnbsp;

Mother.

andnbsp;

Excuse me.

andnbsp;

What is it, dear?

andnbsp;

What are you doing?

andnbsp;

Come on.

andnbsp;

Yes.

andnbsp;

And that's all?

andnbsp;

Yes, of course, I will at once.

andnbsp;

This is the telegram
from Reich Marshall Hermann Goering...

andnbsp;

to Foreign Minister von Ribbentrop.

andnbsp;

I've transcribed it,
I don't know if you can read my writing.

andnbsp;

We have the full text of the telegram now.

andnbsp;

"lf by 10:00 p.m., April 23...

andnbsp;

"it is apparent that the Fuhrer has lost
his freedom of action...

andnbsp;

"to conduct the affairs of the Reich.

andnbsp;

"Then, l, Reich Marshall Hermann Goering...

andnbsp;

"inherit all of his offices."

andnbsp;

He sits there on the mountaintop
in Berchtesgaden...

andnbsp;

and tells the whole world,
he's taking command of the Third Reich.

andnbsp;

We must take action immediately.

andnbsp;

Brutal.

andnbsp;

He's a brutal man.

andnbsp;

Hard as iron.

andnbsp;

Ruthless, cold.

andnbsp;

In a crisis, he's ice cold.

andnbsp;

He's ice cold.

andnbsp;

He's committed an act of treason.

andnbsp;

We stood together...

andnbsp;

years ago.

andnbsp;

Goering...

andnbsp;

determined, deadly.

andnbsp;

The man....

andnbsp;

Well, he's a drug addict, Bormann.

andnbsp;

Corrupt.

andnbsp;

He's a drug addict. It is a well known fact.

andnbsp;

What do you intend to do?

andnbsp;

Yeah.

andnbsp;

How do you intend to deal with Goering.

andnbsp;

Yeah, he must resign his office, at once.

andnbsp;

The situation demands
more than a resignation.

andnbsp;

A telegram to Ribbentrop.

andnbsp;

Is there no honor left?

andnbsp;

We can still reach the SS at Obersalzberg.

andnbsp;

Place him under arrest.

andnbsp;

I'm leaving now, my Fuhrer.

andnbsp;

I wanted to say goodbye.

andnbsp;

And....

andnbsp;

There are four aircraft,
one of them is a Junker 390.

andnbsp;

It's capable of flying
from Germany to Japan, nonstop.

andnbsp;

It's no use, Baur. He won't leave.

andnbsp;

I could fly him to Argentina.

andnbsp;

-I know of a place to refuel--
-It's no use.

andnbsp;

Bormann, where is he?

andnbsp;

The Fuhrer is with his secretaries.

andnbsp;

Yes, and Eva.

andnbsp;

They're having afternoon tea with crumpets.

andnbsp;

Would you like to join them?

andnbsp;

How would you like
some afternoon tea and crumpets.

andnbsp;

And do you remember?

andnbsp;

We would sit around the fireplace
and listen to the music of Wagner.

andnbsp;

You could see the snow falling outside...

andnbsp;

and you knew
there was no place on earth as beautiful.

andnbsp;

I always felt like a Wagnerian god there.

andnbsp;

So high above the clouds.

andnbsp;

And do you remember the cook?
Will Kanenberg?

andnbsp;

He was as big as a house.
He had enough for all of us.

andnbsp;

But the sausages that man could make,
and the little cream cakes.

andnbsp;

You loved those cream cakes
with the chocolate sauce, remember?

andnbsp;

The little cakes of Berchtesgaden.

andnbsp;

The cook that was trained in Vienna.

andnbsp;

That's total incompetence.

andnbsp;

Vienna should have been held.

andnbsp;

They lost their courage. They lost their faith
in the will of the Almighty.

andnbsp;

They lost their courage. They lost their faith
in the will of the Almighty.

andnbsp;

Please. Let's not talk about Vienna.

andnbsp;

Let's think only of Berchtesgaden.
How lovely it is in the spring.

andnbsp;

The flowers. The valleys turning green.

andnbsp;

More tea?

andnbsp;

Please, can we tell them?

andnbsp;

Let's tell them now.

andnbsp;

This evening,
as soon as the arrangements can be made...

andnbsp;

we are going to be married.

andnbsp;

-What is your name?
-Wagner. Walter Wagner. Party member.

andnbsp;

You have notary and registrar power
to perform a marriage ceremony?

andnbsp;

I have.

andnbsp;

Stay here. Dismissed.

andnbsp;

He'll do.

andnbsp;

We'll have to wait.
The Fuhrer is talking to Dr. Goebbels.

andnbsp;

-It's almost midnight.
-What difference does it make?

andnbsp;

And listen to this:

andnbsp;

"Brave King Frederick...

andnbsp;

"wait for a little while and the days that
you're suffering will be over.

andnbsp;

"Behind the clouds, the sun
of your good fortune is already rising.

andnbsp;

"Soon, it will show itself to you."

andnbsp;

And it did.

andnbsp;

He was on the point of perishing,
and he was saved.

andnbsp;

The applications have been accepted...

andnbsp;

the bands examined
and found to be in order.

andnbsp;

Do you attest that you're
of pure Aryan descent...

andnbsp;

-and free of hereditary diseases?
-Yes.

andnbsp;

I ask you, my leader Adolf Hitler.

andnbsp;

Do you attest that you're
of pure Aryan descent...

andnbsp;

-and free of hereditary diseases.
-Yeah.

andnbsp;

Since both of these engaged persons...

andnbsp;

have stated their willingness
to enter into matrimony...

andnbsp;

I herewith declare the marriage
valid before the law.

andnbsp;

If you will sign the document, please.

andnbsp;

To the lovely bride. Congratulations.

andnbsp;

And to our great Fuhrer.

andnbsp;

They've taken over the Potsdamer Platz.

andnbsp;

Tanks, artillery, infantry.
Russian soldiers everywhere.

andnbsp;

Soldiers, ignorant peasants,
raping every woman they can find...

andnbsp;

stealing the flush toilets because
they think they're potato-washing machines.

andnbsp;

Good evening, gentlemen.
Or should I say good morning.

andnbsp;

-What's that music?
-A party.

andnbsp;

What?

andnbsp;

Oh, God.

andnbsp;

-Welcome to the wedding party.
-Wedding?

andnbsp;

-Fuhrer just married Eva Braun.
-Are you serious?

andnbsp;

Don't they realize the Russians could
be here in this bunker within 48 hours?

andnbsp;

Speak to the Fuhrer.
Tell him it's our last chance to leave.

andnbsp;

Where is he? I don't see him.

andnbsp;

And so I have decided at the end of my life...

andnbsp;

to marry the young woman,
who, after many years of true friendship...

andnbsp;

came of her own free will to this city...

andnbsp;

when it was almost completely under siege,
in order to share my fate.

andnbsp;

We have chosen death...

andnbsp;

to escape the disgrace of removal
or surrender.

andnbsp;

I'm talking about Russian assault troops
only 300 meters from here.

andnbsp;

-I think we can get out if we move now.
-You're wasting your breath, General.

andnbsp;

The Fuhrer will not leave Berlin,
nor will l, my wife, or my children.

andnbsp;

I never wanted war.

andnbsp;

It was provoked solely by...

andnbsp;

the agents of Jewish Marxist interests.

andnbsp;

Posterity simply cannot place...

andnbsp;

the blame for this war on me.

andnbsp;

Out of the ruins of our cities...

andnbsp;

there will arise a new hatred...

andnbsp;

for those people who are...

andnbsp;

ultimately responsible.

andnbsp;

Before my death...

andnbsp;

I now expel Reich Marshall...

andnbsp;

Hermann Goering...

andnbsp;

and Reich fuhrer...

andnbsp;

SS Heinrich Himmler, from the party.

andnbsp;

They have brought shame...

andnbsp;

on our country and our people.

andnbsp;

Disloyalty has undermined our resistance...

andnbsp;

and it has not been granted
for me to lead my people...

andnbsp;

to victory.

andnbsp;

We'll have three groups in the breakout.

andnbsp;

We'll divide up the bunker personnel
and those left in the Chancellery.

andnbsp;

What are our chances?

andnbsp;

If we make it to the Strachow factory...

andnbsp;

if we get that far, stick together,
we should make it to the British lines.

andnbsp;

Excuse me, Gen. Mohnke. The Fuhrer
would like to see you immediately.

andnbsp;

My Fuhrer.

andnbsp;

You've assumed command
of the Berlin fighting?

andnbsp;

Yes, my Fuhrer.

andnbsp;

My life is in your hands.
I wish to live until the fifth of May.

andnbsp;

There is some significance to that day?

andnbsp;

The fifth of May is the anniversary
of Napoleon's death.

andnbsp;

We're both men born before our time.

andnbsp;

So much the worse for Europe.

andnbsp;

History will be my judge...

andnbsp;

as it was for him.

andnbsp;

I cannot guarantee the date, my Fuhrer.

andnbsp;

Is that all, my Fuhrer?

andnbsp;

To Admiral Donitz.

andnbsp;

The Fuhrer is now conducting
the defense of Berlin.

andnbsp;

He orders you to proceed
against all traitors who are not fighting.

andnbsp;

-Send it out at once.
-Sir.

andnbsp;

And, Misch,
I expect you to remain on duty here...

andnbsp;

-until the breakout.
-Yes, sir.

andnbsp;

Here. This one.

andnbsp;

-I want you to have this one.
-Oh, no, I couldn't take it. I couldn't.

andnbsp;

Please, don't be silly.
I have no use for it now.

andnbsp;

And you will have it for this winter,
and your life after the war.

andnbsp;

And when you put it on, dear Traudl,
you will think of me...

andnbsp;

and the times we shared in Bavaria, huh?

andnbsp;

We're closing the doors here, Dr. Schenck.

andnbsp;

Why? We need all the air we can get.

andnbsp;

Dr. Goebbels is having a farewell party
for his friends.

andnbsp;

Friends? Who is there left to come?

andnbsp;

Dr. Goebbels would like
six of the wounded soldiers...

andnbsp;

to attend the party.

andnbsp;

They're boys, mere boys,
and many of them are dying.

andnbsp;

Do you really think they want to say farewell
to Dr. Goebbels?

andnbsp;

Everyone be seated.

andnbsp;

I wish to express my deep appreciation
for your loyalty and your devotion.

andnbsp;

Although our enemies remain
greatly impressed...

andnbsp;

with the courageous, fighting spirit
of our troops...

andnbsp;

it must be stated that the morale of our men
is slowly sinking.

andnbsp;

The enemy is now indulging
in a great orgy of hate...

andnbsp;

and a thirst for destruction.

andnbsp;

For that reason, we must fight
till the final breath in our bodies.

andnbsp;

I wish I could tell you
the struggle might still succeed.

andnbsp;

Unfortunately, that's not the case.

andnbsp;

The enemy has stated, under no conditions
will Germany be given lenient treatment.

andnbsp;

Of course, that's the work of the Jews.

andnbsp;

I hope anyone in a position to do so...

andnbsp;

will kill off these Jews
like the vermin they are.

andnbsp;

In Germany,
that job already is fairly complete.

andnbsp;

I trust the world will take its cue from us.

andnbsp;

I look at these brave, young, fighting men...

andnbsp;

and my heart goes out to them.

andnbsp;

Let us show them our gratitude, shall we?

andnbsp;

The blue dragoons,
they are riding

andnbsp;

Through the gates, through the gates
music thrills

andnbsp;

The fanfares are our companions

andnbsp;

Proudly they ride

andnbsp;

to the hills

andnbsp;

Proudly they ride

andnbsp;

to the hills

andnbsp;

The neighing horses are pawing

andnbsp;

Trees of birch gently wave as they pass

andnbsp;

Banners on their lances

andnbsp;

Fluttering high

andnbsp;

In the breeze

andnbsp;

Fluttering high

andnbsp;

in the breeze

andnbsp;

We got the news
from a Stockholm radio broadcast.

andnbsp;

Go on.

andnbsp;

The report is
that Mussolini and his mistress...

andnbsp;

were captured by partisans yesterday
and executed.

andnbsp;

Yes.

andnbsp;

Their bodies were taken to a public square...

andnbsp;

and hung there upside down.

andnbsp;

There you are.

andnbsp;

-Did you bring them?
-Yes, my Fuhrer.

andnbsp;

Cyanide capsules.

andnbsp;

Where did you get them?

andnbsp;

They were given to me
by Himmler's physician.

andnbsp;

Himmler?

andnbsp;

-Has it been tested?
-The box is sealed.

andnbsp;

-How can we do that?
-What, my Fuhrer?

andnbsp;

How can we test them?

andnbsp;

This way. That's right.

andnbsp;

Keep her still. Hello, Blondie.
Get her mouth open.

andnbsp;

Nice and quiet. There.

andnbsp;

That's it.

andnbsp;

There we are.

andnbsp;

What do we do with the puppies?

andnbsp;

Kill them.

andnbsp;

My dear.

andnbsp;

Are you afraid?

andnbsp;

No.

andnbsp;

I'm not even thinking about my own death.

andnbsp;

It's the children.

andnbsp;

That's where I must have
a great deal of courage.

andnbsp;

Dear God.

andnbsp;

The dear and gracious God
will forgive me, I know...

andnbsp;

if I myself give them their release.

andnbsp;

I wouldn't trust anyone else.

andnbsp;

You ready?

andnbsp;

Let us say goodbye.

andnbsp;

My Fuhrer.

andnbsp;

Baur, take it. I want you to have it.

andnbsp;

Thank you, my Fuhrer,
but I couldn't accept such a gift.

andnbsp;

You deserve it. It has great historical value.

andnbsp;

Well, I would accept it
only to give to a museum one day.

andnbsp;

Goodbye, Baur.

andnbsp;

Thank you.

andnbsp;

-Guenter, is everything ready?
-Yes, my Fuhrer.

andnbsp;

Good.

andnbsp;

Will you keep that door closed?

andnbsp;

Then you wait 10 minutes
before you open it.

andnbsp;

I will.

andnbsp;

-Goodbye, Guenter.
-Goodbye, my Fuhrer.

andnbsp;

Thank you.

andnbsp;

Bite down hard.

andnbsp;

It's time.

andnbsp;

Get the hell out of here!

andnbsp;

I wanted to walk.

andnbsp;

Come, my love. Sit down.

andnbsp;

Listen, my darlings...

andnbsp;

we're going to fly to Berchtesgaden
tomorrow with the Fuhrer.

andnbsp;

Now, I want you to go to bed
very early tonight.

andnbsp;

And as soon as you're ready for bed...

andnbsp;

I'm going to give each of you
a sweet chocolate.

andnbsp;

It will help to keep you
from having airsickness.

andnbsp;

Could I have two?

andnbsp;

No, my love. Only one a piece.

andnbsp;

One big piece.

andnbsp;

Putting you through now. Through now.

andnbsp;

Misch, Misch, you're a fish.

andnbsp;

Now, my darlings.

andnbsp;

Off to bed. Sleep well.

andnbsp;

-Good night, Helga.
-Good night, Helmuth.

andnbsp;

Good night, Hilde.

andnbsp;

Come on, sweet.

andnbsp;

Good night, Heidi.

andnbsp;

What's the matter?

andnbsp;

They're going to die.

andnbsp;

Who are?

andnbsp;

All of the children are going to die.

andnbsp;

But why?

andnbsp;

Dr. Haase told me,
and no one can stop it now. No one.

andnbsp;

Dr. Haase told me,
and no one can stop it now. No one.

andnbsp;

Why?

andnbsp;

Dr. Goebbels wishes to know
if the bodies have been inspected.

andnbsp;

You may tell him he can rest assured...

andnbsp;

that they are beyond all human recognition.

andnbsp;

Good night, darling.

andnbsp;

Good night.

andnbsp;

Good night.

andnbsp;

Good night. Sleep tight.

andnbsp;

-Good night.
-Good night.

andnbsp;

-Good night.
-Good night, darling.

andnbsp;

I don't like it. It tastes funny.

andnbsp;

Eat it, sweet,
otherwise you'll be sick in the morning.

andnbsp;

-Good night, Mother.
-Good night, love.

andnbsp;

We stopped those rotten communists
dead in their tracks...

andnbsp;

here on their home ground.

andnbsp;

Those days will never be forgotten.

andnbsp;

We sang the Horst Wessel together,
right on the streets.

andnbsp;

And I tell you it was
the power of the Fuhrer...

andnbsp;

that brought the people over
to the Nationalist Party.

andnbsp;

The masses don't want
to be burdened with problems.

andnbsp;

They desire only one thing:
to be led by a great leader.

andnbsp;

That's what the intellectuals
never understood.

andnbsp;

But I can assure you, Hitler knew it.

andnbsp;

So, now what happens?

andnbsp;

We leave everything to the moneychangers...

andnbsp;

the screaming brokers
and the rotting planks of capitalism?

andnbsp;

We gave the world the solution
to the Jewish problem.

andnbsp;

And how do they thank us?

andnbsp;

We gave them reasons and options
to take pride in their existence.

andnbsp;

We gave them perception and meaning
to live as nations...

andnbsp;

based on firm foundations
of clear and shining examples.

andnbsp;

And how do they thank us:
unconditional betrayal.

andnbsp;

That will be the true verdict of world history.

andnbsp;

That's their problem now.

andnbsp;

Excuse me, gentlemen.

andnbsp;

At least you good people won't have
to carry our bodies...

andnbsp;

up this long flight of stairs.

andnbsp;

Now we can't possibly go this way...

andnbsp;

because the Soviets have blocked off
the river route.

andnbsp;

So, we make our way as quickly as possible
across the Wilhelmstrasse...

andnbsp;

to the shelter
at the Kaiserdorf subway station.

andnbsp;

Our main goal is to surface outside
of the Soviet rim.

andnbsp;

-What are you doing?
-Smallpox.

andnbsp;

I'm giving myself smallpox.

andnbsp;

Do you want to be raped?

andnbsp;

Use it.

andnbsp;

I want to leave with your group.

andnbsp;

As you wish, Bormann.

andnbsp;

Good luck.

andnbsp;

-Johannes, goodbye.
-Goodbye, Frau Junge.

andnbsp;

-Goodbye.
-Thank you.

andnbsp;

Johannes!

andnbsp;

Oh, my God. You scared me to death.

andnbsp;

I thought you had gone.

andnbsp;

Thought you had, too.

andnbsp;

So, what happens now?

andnbsp;

I'm hungry. Let's eat.

andnbsp;

You coming?

andnbsp;

If they want to shoot me, they won't find me.

andnbsp;

I'll throw off the lights...

andnbsp;

seal the doors...

andnbsp;

start the sprinkler system....

andnbsp;

Where are you going?

andnbsp;

I'm leaving.

andnbsp;

Where?

andnbsp;

Where? I don't know where.

andnbsp;

Maybe I just don't want to die here.

andnbsp;

Rochus...

andnbsp;

for the first time, you look like a real soldier.

andnbsp;

Just in case...

andnbsp;

would you give this letter to my wife?

andnbsp;

Was about to ask you the same thing.

andnbsp;

What's the time?

andnbsp;

Almost 4:00 a.m.

andnbsp;

What can I say?

andnbsp;

Good luck, Rochus.

andnbsp;

And you, Johannes.

andnbsp;

Stand by, please.

andnbsp;

Stand by for an important announcement.

andnbsp;

It is reported today,
that our Fuhrer, Adolf Hitler...

andnbsp;

died fighting in Berlin.

andnbsp;

Fighting till his last breath
against the enemies of the Reich.

andnbsp;

You have just witnessed
the last days of Adolf Hitler...

andnbsp;

and met the people who worked
and lived with him in the Berlin bunker.

andnbsp;

Of all those in the last desperate breakout...

andnbsp;

only six were able to elude Russian capture.

andnbsp;

Mrs. Christian and Mrs. Junge
were among the six.

andnbsp;

They were captured by the British.

andnbsp;

For years it was thought
that Martin Bormann...

andnbsp;

had escaped to South America.

andnbsp;

But his body was discovered
in Berlin in 1972...

andnbsp;

and positively identified.

andnbsp;

A suicide, at the time of the breakout.

andnbsp;

Albert Speer was sentenced
at the Nuremberg trials...

andnbsp;

to 20 years imprisonment.

andnbsp;

He lives in Heidelberg today
where he has written his memoirs.

andnbsp;

Mohnke...

andnbsp;

Guenter, Rattenhuber...

andnbsp;

and Baur...

andnbsp;

were captured by the Russians
and sent to Soviet prison camps.

andnbsp;

Col. Von Below,
the last officer to leave the bunker...

andnbsp;

was captured by the British.

andnbsp;

Sergeant Rochus Misch spent many years
in a Russian camp.

andnbsp;

Today, he's still a Berliner and lives
only two miles from the old bunker.

andnbsp;

Johannes Hentschel, the machinist,
also captured by the Russians...

andnbsp;

is still alive and living near Heidelberg.

andnbsp;

It was Thomas Hardy who said,
"While much is too strange to be believed...

andnbsp;

"nothing is too strange to have happened. "

andnbsp;

For nothing will stop the mighty will
of the German people. Nothing.

andnbsp;

For, they stand united.

andnbsp;

One nation unified under the banner
of National Socialism.

andnbsp;

As one people, as one party...

andnbsp;

one leader, one Germany.

andnbsp;

Long live National Socialism.

andnbsp;

Long live the greater glory
of the German fatherland.
