Willy Winker He didn't shoot his children, and he didn't participate actively in that, it was his wife who did the job. She first put them to sleep and then she popped a little cyanide pill on their mouths
The major was horrified that he realized he was taking orders from the "traitors" once he heard the voice of his master. In real life, after realizing he'd been duped and helped in stopping the rebellion he was promoted two ranks to full colonel , and ended the war as a general. Many make much of his actions that night, but in reality Hitler was in total control of everything, and even if the conspiracy had worked, once Hitler made it known he was alive it would all have melted away. The proof is in the example of this major who was all bent on arresting Goebbels, but once he heard Hitler's voice he completely changed his tune, as would have everyone else once Hitler announced he'd survived. Operation Valkyrie would only work if Hitler was dead.
So, they were all sheep. Most knew the war was over , but stilled obeyed the maniac. Goebbels was one I would have particularly liked to have had his evil neck stretched. For the millions he helped kill. And also his deluded wife and their lovely innocent children.
@@degsbabe Well, this was summer 1944, Germany still ruled most of Europe. Normal people or smaller ranked officers especially when not in the front itself did not know it was just a question of time when the Reich would collapse. All information in print and in radio and cinema were controlled strictly. And most normal people still believed in mid 1944, that Hitler only could lead the war to a respectable end, also there were rumours of the V-weapons that gave people the hope. So when people would get the message that someone tried to kill Hitler, they would try to get those who worked on the plot, cause they would feel that these people want to ruin Germany.
@@degsbabe There's a reason this movie opens with the Hitler Oath, which is then alluded to several times again throughout the film. Back then, people didn't say things like that and then not follow up on it. As long as Hitler was alive and giving orders, nothing was going to change.
Erebus XVIII Actually, and it's sad to say as and advertisement guy and actually almost impossible to talk about in our environment without being dubbed a fool or a nazi, Goebbels did mark down pretty much most key concepts of modern mass communication. Studying Goebbels work, along with other important nazi propaganda figures like Leni Reifensthall, one realizes that he pretty much nailed down in 1930 most things later brought forth like "innovative" in the 1950s.

Movies can't really show events too accurately because they can be boring if you are not a historian. When you like something, you can watch even poor versions of it just to see somebody create the visuals. This scene was the most accurate for me and shows the strange tension between those duty-bound to follow orders and the way it was twisted by the Hitler cult if you want to call it that. Goebbels knows he can't avoid arrest if Hitler is dead or captured, but he takes a gamble that the officer is a Party member and has higher loyalties to the Fuhrer than to the army he was serving in. All these young officers have been indoctrinated in school and media that Hitler was Germany and his will was more important than anything else in your life. The weakness of Valkyrie was the need to use non-plotters and the existing structure to implement the takeover. A great scene! Some will say it is underplayed, but a great many pivotal moments are.
doesn't even matter, if he isn't a national socialist he would still make the same call, he could hate Hitler but still realise that there is no point arresting Goebels when Hitler is still allive and capable of issuing orders, it's only a matter of time
Hitler, like any head of state-not to mention dictator- was commander in chief and so his orders overruled anyone else’s. So no tension or choice. Also implementing Valkyrie was only lawful if there were a real emergency- here Hitler’s death- and he wasn’t dead. They swore a loyalty oath to Hitler. Plus who is actually going to ever disobey Hitler?
i like how they paint adolf hitler in this scene as if it was dark vader in star wars, and unknown powerful force, you can feel the power through the telephone, it really potrays no matter what the german people did, the state and hitler were in COMPLETE control.
Remer should have guessed from start that something was wrong. His order was signed by General Olbricht and it was delivered to him by General Paul von Hase. Neither of them had any legal authority to mobilise Ersatzheer (Reserve Army). Only person who had the legal authority to mobilize Ersatzheer was Hitler himself or in his absence the commander of Reserve Army, which at the time was Friedrich Fromm. Plotters tried to get Fromm to sign the order and imprisoned him when he refused. However, even if Fromm agreed to sign, it would still be illegal as by that time it was known that Hitler was still alive.
They should have told the major that Goebbels was way behind on his child support and they had a court order to sell his house and take his pension. There would have been no escape from that!
It is fascinating that the fate of the world was really determined by the decisions a few people made that day. The decision to send the contradictory order to arrest Staufenberg out on the telegram, the decision of this major to turn 180 degrees.
Interestingly enough that major eventually got promoted to general rank, he survived the war and post ww2 was an active politician in Germany, supporting right wing politixs
Its amazing how some of these actors were in 2004’s Downfall movie portraying nazi characters. Such a god damn masterpiece. Bruno Granz played Hitler better than Hitler himself lol
Remer is one of the most interesting characters in the film. The real-life Remer in fact remained faithful to his ideals after the war and until his death, and even had to go into exile in Spain, when he was persecuted for his ideas in Germany. Many of the characters in the film closely resemble the real ones.
clarke griswold don't worry...we non english speaker sometimes read subtitle. Not whole but still. Its better that movie like this is in german. Especially when they are depicted in nazi era. It gave you the feelings
"Do you recognise my voice?" "Yes. You're the actor David Bamber. Loved you as Mr. Collins in Pride and Prejudice and Cicero in the Rome miniseries. But by far and away my favourite performance was your Olivier-winning performance as Guy in My Night in Reg on the West End." "Always good to hear from a fan. Thanks." [click]
All the factors on 20th July were terribly unlucky but it is just as well long term that Hitler committed suicide as a coward with Germany laying in ruins utterly defeated with no hope of victory. The last thing Germany needed was another myth that they would have won a world war had they not been betrayed by saboteurs and traitors to the cause. That happened in the aftermath of the First World War and that stabbed in the back narrative myth helped the Nazis into power. Hitler killing himself as Germany burnt with two vast armies conquering it from both West and East was the only thing that could kill Nazism for good. Nazism had to be utterly defeated and utterly exposed for what it was. Pure evil. Had 20th July succeed, it would have made Hitler a martyr. There would have been millions still convinced he would had turned the war around and won it had he lived in July 1944.
Albert Speer was in the room when this happened and gave an account of major Remers attempt to arrest him and the phone call to Hitler. It’s a spot on version of events - except for Hitlers words to Remer.

@@likeaplatypus8909 You dont get it. One weak link in the chain to all this breaking is why it didnt go through. If all of them held their ground they would have succeeded. Instead they got scared of the "what ifs" and caved. Its better to die for something than live for nothing. nazis in name perhaps. No sane person believed that. It was VERY well known that by the end of 1944 Germany was going to lose the war, and by early 1945 anyone that thought otherwise was delusional. That is also wrong. He wanted peace with the US and UK to withdraw from the west land taken and then have them basically tell Russia "Germany is keeping the east territory it took" they wasnt going to continue fighting. It was impossible. They were DRAINED.
I think the part where the Major recognizes Hitlers voice may be unrealistic. Afaik there's only one recording (the Mannerheim recording) of his normal speaking voice. A normal German would only ever have heard Hitler speak in his strong oratory voice which is fairly different. EDIT: this man was Otto Ernst Remer. A year earlier Hitler had personally given him a decoration, so he'd have heard his normal voice
Goebbels wasn't gonna let them take him alive, and he couldn't have been sure ahead of time what was going to happen and where Major Remer's loyalties were.
It's definitely an awkward situation when you're sent to arrest Goebbels....especially when you then realized you've been tricked and are almost inadvertently committing treason.
What if Himmler or Goering was on the line instead of Hitler? (The briefcase that was moved would have had to have both the charged bomb & the uncharged bomb for the bomb(s) to not just kill Hitler, but Keitel & Jodl as well. But neither Goering, nor Himmler, nor Ribbentrop, nor Doenitz were in the conference room.)
This is an amazing moment because it shows the raw power a charismatic leader can have. Hitler had totally enthralled and enchanted his nation. His voice alone was enough to sway a Major and end a coup. Just softly, “do you recognize my voice?” Compare that to a fictional story like Star Wars, where a sci fi mind control chip magically controls clone soldiers into obeying commands. Would’ve been way better if the villain was so popular and influential, so charismatic and indoctrinating, that his mere voice would be enough to convince soldiers to execute or turn on their friends. Anyways, just a thought.
- Are you dedicated National Socialist, Major?
- Nope

That poor Major. He was put in a very bad spot either way.
It's definitely an awkward situation when you're sent to arrest Goebbels....especially when you then realized you've been tricked and are almost inadvertently committing treason.

"Can you hear me now?"
What if Himmler or Goering was on the line instead of Hitler? (The briefcase that was moved would have had to have both the charged bomb & the uncharged bomb for the bomb(s) to not just kill Hitler, but Keitel & Jodl as well. But neither Goering, nor Himmler, nor Ribbentrop, nor Doenitz were in the conference room.)
This is an amazing moment because it shows the raw power a charismatic leader can have. Hitler had totally enthralled and enchanted his nation. His voice alone was enough to sway a Major and end a coup. Just softly, “do you recognize my voice?”
Compare that to a fictional story like Star Wars, where a sci fi mind control chip magically controls clone soldiers into obeying commands. Would’ve been way better if the villain was so popular and influential, so charismatic and indoctrinating, that his mere voice would be enough to convince soldiers to execute or turn on their friends.
Anyways, just a thought.
Almost no more tea at the berghof!!! Pity!
