*A 77th Academy Award Nominee In 1942, young Traudl Junge (Alexandra Maria Lara) lands her dream job -- secretary to Adolf Hitler (Bruno Ganz) at the peak of his power. Three years later, Hitler,s empire is now his underground bunker. The real-life Traudl narrates Hitler,s final days as he rages against imagined betrayers and barks orders to phantom armies, while his mistress, Eva Braun (Juliane Köhler), clucks over his emotional distance, and other infamous Nazis prepare for the end. Starring: Alexandra Maria Lara, Bruno Ganz, Juliane Kohler Viewer Review: "This film makes you live the horrors and craziness of war. This movie is neither pro-Nazi nor does it depict all Nazis as mindless monsters. It gives an impression of utter realism. 10 out of 10." Trivia:  Many of Adolf Hitler,s lines are historically accurate, based on accounts from Albert Speer and Traudl Junge (Hitler,s secretary). Most of them, however, are from earlier dates. Nominated for Best Foreign Language Film at the 77
