“Luke, did I ever tell you about Felix Steiner? He was an ss General during the Second World War. He had one job, to launch a counter attack to break the Soviet encirclement of Berlin. Instead he decided to call in and just say he wouldn’t. Didn’t even have the courage to tell me face to face. Really sent me into a rage when I learned, told everyone I was going to eat a gun. And he was a good friend.”
They're both based on the same account. The outburst seems to have actually happened. "A lot of it was sourced from the survivors, a few of whom are depicted in the movie. Traudl Junge (Hitler's secretary) being a major source."
Really apart from Bruno Ganz the only realistic Hitler ever played. All others are cartoons. I believe these two men really understood Hitler (the man- the human being). There is ample first hand observations of him. Excellent job.
People wondering if Downfall was a remake of this. Read the SS transcripts, this is slightly more accurate in what Hitler said, but I think the actor was better in the German film.

Is it possible they intentionally gave a false report about Hitler afterwards to maintain his mythical larger than life image?

In the early 70s, there was still a tendency to overplay Hitler to the point at which it approached caricature. Guinness's portrayal here was a classic interpretation, but lacks the sense of immersion that Ganz brings nearly 30 years later. It's how what we learn about a historical figure changes how that person is portrayed - in _Downfall_ , Hitler is slouched, his left arm and hand withered and trembing as he removes his glasses in initial reaction to the news about Steiner. In that one gesture from a frail man, we see how neither time nor circumstance was going to acknowledge his greatness, but we still fear the last burst of rage and charisma that follows.
I originally thought the hand shaking was from anger, but apparently it was actually a symptom of Parkinson's disease. Indeed as someone who had a loved one who suffered from that same disease it looks at least pretty similar. Also that's not the only time it's shown shaking like that in Downfall either.
2:05 Sir Alec Guiness was a great actor, but really, his delivery of the line "An order of mine has not been executed!" simply doesn't have the same hmph as "Das war ein Befehl!" by Bruno Ganz.

This was first broadcast on PBS in 1980 or 81 when I saw it at age 15. I was terrified. But I couldn’t rip my eyes away. Just riveted. Jump ahead 25 or so years and I was equally terrified with ‘Downfall’ and Bruno Gantz is convincingly Adolph Hitler. A most outstanding, and miserable film.
Hey, I first saw this at the movies when I was 20! Me and my future wife, now married 45 years. No, Hitler was not the matchmaker. The scene we'd LOVE to see out of this again is Hitler loading his dessert with whipped cream. Man, he piles it on like he's getting ready to plaster a wall!
There was another English language movie about Hitler's final days where Anthony Hopkins played Hitler. It would be nice to see some of the scenes from all three movies side-by-side.
@@krashd I've seen the Anthony Hopkin's film, it was called "The Bunker" and was broadcast in the early 80's. Tony did a pretty good sick and burned-out Hitler but was really still too young for the role, he just didn't "look" the part. There was a British made-for-TV film about Hitler in the bunker made in the 70's starring Frank Finlay as Hitler. Just awful, it's almost a parody. Not that I blame the actors, a gig's a gig after all and you play the role as written or you look for another job.
Why are people mocking this scene? This is some of the finest acting I have ever seen. He gets Hitlers infamous hand gestures while giving an intense speech, absolutely perfect.
Emilio Largo (Adolfo Celi, 007: Thunderball), Obi-Wan Kenobi (Alec Guinness, SWIV: A New Hope), Arjen Rudd (Joss Ackland, Lethal Weapon 2), Delbert Grady (Philip Stone, The Shining) and Winston Churchill (Simon Ward, Young Winston). The star power here is incredible.
Alec Guinness was a great actor but Bruno Ganz was at a different level in Downfall. It is amazing to think how long the German's kept fighting. Long after they were beaten.
Not exactly amazing but a waste of life. It was a war propagated by selfish evil men and squeezed the life out of all able bodied men until they were spent, all for these few evil men.

@@borges3099 It's not terrible at all. It's just weird that it's played with English accents. The acting is great and Alec Guiness looks convincingly like Hitler.
This makes me appreciate Bruno Ganz even more. The scene and dialogue is almost identical to Downfall. But after being spoiled by Bruno Ganz version this version is hard to watch
Counts for the all that became a Dutch General, after Shell Queen Beatrix got in Power (1980). She ( her advisers) concluded that if the Dutch Army have way too much Generals, the chance of a Military Coup would be way less possible.

British gentleman do not rant, sir. They hold their pinky on their highest hand out at 45 degrees, raise an eyebrow quizzically, and then clear their throats in a not-overly-loud fashion.

@John Tait Certainly, sir: all three tyrants found themselves alone, surrounded by a larger force, and abandoned by their allies. It may be argued Hitler was surrounded by friends. . .but in his case it was revealed not a few in that room were only present out of fear not loyalty.

Britler isn’t real he can’t hurt you
Britler:
This was first broadcast on PBS in 1980 or 81 when I saw it at age 15. I was terrified. But I couldn’t rip my eyes away. Just riveted.
Jump ahead 25 or so years and I was equally terrified with ‘Downfall’ and Bruno Gantz is convincingly Adolph Hitler. A most outstanding, and miserable film.
@v24 dude. almost
Hey, I first saw this at the movies when I was 20! Me and my future wife, now married 45 years. No, Hitler was not the matchmaker.
The scene we'd LOVE to see out of this again is Hitler loading his dessert with whipped cream. Man, he piles it on like he's getting ready to plaster a wall!
There was another English language movie about Hitler's final days where Anthony Hopkins played Hitler. It would be nice to see some of the scenes from all three movies side-by-side.
@@krashd I've seen the Anthony Hopkin's film, it was called "The Bunker" and was broadcast in the early 80's. Tony did a pretty good sick and burned-out Hitler but was really still too young for the role, he just didn't "look" the part.
There was a British made-for-TV film about Hitler in the bunker made in the 70's starring Frank Finlay as Hitler. Just awful, it's almost a parody. Not that I blame the actors, a gig's a gig after all and you play the role as written or you look for another job.
@@wayneantoniazzi2706 🤪
Why are people mocking this scene? This is some of the finest acting I have ever seen.
He gets Hitlers infamous hand gestures while giving an intense speech, absolutely perfect.
Hitler purists. So annoying.
They probably watched Downfall first before seeing this
you should see Downfall.
Because it feels staged rather than natural
I mean this is very good but Downfall is just much more convincing, also helps that it's actually in german
Emilio Largo (Adolfo Celi, 007: Thunderball), Obi-Wan Kenobi (Alec Guinness, SWIV: A New Hope), Arjen Rudd (Joss Ackland, Lethal Weapon 2), Delbert Grady (Philip Stone, The Shining) and Winston Churchill (Simon Ward, Young Winston). The star power here is incredible.
These people are to remain. Tarkin, Thrawn and Cody.
Too bad the three weren't Larry, Moe and Curly. A little comedy relief at this point in the movie would be most welcome.
This Bormann actually looks like the real Bormann!
I noticed too
And Jodl wasn't hairless either lol
Yes, that stopped me, too.
Yes, this boringman is more realistic
tno refe
Hitler: “Execute Order 66”
Generals: “NO”
Alec Guinness was a great actor but Bruno Ganz was at a different level in Downfall. It is amazing to think how long the German's kept fighting. Long after they were beaten.
Not exactly amazing but a waste of life. It was a war propagated by selfish evil men and squeezed the life out of all able bodied men until they were spent, all for these few evil men.
@@weasle2904 that's the dumbest take I've ever heard
@@tonycaniggia huh? Were the Nazis not evil men? lol
@@weasle2904 no. Allied were and still are, everything you think you know about "nazis" you have heard from those who hate European race and those who wanted to disguise their own crimes and point finger at the losers of WWII
@@tonycaniggia youre crazy, they killed people systemically based on race without remorse. Pure hatred and evil.
If Obi-Wan had gone after Vader with this ferocity, Vader would have gone "wait hold up".
Scary how much Guinness actually looks like Hitler here...
This movie was made in the early 70’s. Guinness did a good job portraying Hitler.
Saw it in '73 or '74. I was 13 years old.
@@jimmyarmijo2252 I did too!
And wasn't that Lloyd from shining? The one that whacked his wife and 2 daughters then himself?
@@jonburrows2684 correct!
@@jonburrows2684 No. "Lloyd" was the ghostly bartender (played by Joe Turkel, who just recently passed away). The ghostly caretaker who had chopped up his wife and kids (and who Jack Torrance met after getting a drink spilled on him) was named "Mr Grady" (played by British actor Philip Stone - and who appears in the film about HItler).
All Steiner had to do was attack.
It was literally a suicide attack, he had no chance
He should have used the force
And it would end up being a bloodbath for Steiner's troops. Steiner knew well before that the war was lost.
@@whitezombie10 And yet it could have altered the course of the war.
@@cedricliggins7528
No. It wouldn't have. That's the whole point. Steiner had a tiny ragtag detachment of men and kids going up against a hardened force of 2.5+ million Soviet soldiers and 6,750 tanks. They would have all died and their loss would have meant nothing. That's why Steiner turned around and dipped.
Obi Wan needs to wield the Pencil of Doom.
What??!! I didn't know Mr.Delbert Grady used to work under Hitlar, before working as a caretaker at overlook hotel.😳
You are the caretaker, Mr.Torrance. You've always been the caretaker.
I was scrolling looking to see if someone noticed this!! The General to Hitlers left with the silver hair is Italian actor Adolfo Celi who also played Emilio Largo, SPECTREs Number 2 and the villain from the 1965 Sean Connery 007 film Thunderball
He’s suggesting the fuhrer “correct” Steiner. 😂
No wonder he used the N-word. He's a Nazi.
Somewhere in Hell, Hitler is Screaming at Every Actor that's ever played him.
NEIN NEIN NEIN YOU DIDNT GET ZE PARKINSONS RIGHT
YAAAAAAAAAAAAA
nah actor from downfall was amazing, this clip is terrible
With all those Hitler Rant Parodies out there, Dolfy is going to be busy for quite a while.
@@borges3099 It's not terrible at all. It's just weird that it's played with English accents. The acting is great and Alec Guiness looks convincingly like Hitler.
Damn. Obi-Wan really went to the dark side in this one.
now you begin to appreciate the genius of Bruno Ganz...
This one is allright but feels real bootleg compared to the german "remake"
Not really, Hitler in his final days didn't have the energy to be exploding at people and ranting all the time.
The older I get, the more I appreciate this one for being pretty great for what it is.
No one can deny that Bruno Ganz watched Alec Guinness' a few times or more.
“Das war ein Befehl….der Angriff Steiners war ein Befehl…wer sind sie, das sie es wagen sich meinen Befehlen zu widersetzen?!?!“
"You fought in the Clone Wars?"
"Uhhhh... yeah"
2:10 Everybody betrayed me! I'm fed up with this world!
Nice Tommy Wiseau joke
I DID NOT ATTACK POLAND THIS IS BULLSHIT......i did not.
@@landeny65 Oh Hi Soviets
“All of my generals are cowards and chickens! Chip chip chip”
This makes me appreciate Bruno Ganz even more. The scene and dialogue is almost identical to Downfall. But after being spoiled by Bruno Ganz version this version is hard to watch
So that's where Obi-Wan Kenobi went during his exile.
When you actually listen to Hitle'rs real voice in speeches its astonishing how close Guinness got to it whilst speaking a different language.
"These are not the stormtroopers you are looking for."
When general Kenobi learn Cody didn't attack
General Grievous: Hello There. Wait a minute, have we met before?
Adolph Hitler: In another time.
Fun fact: Obi wan kenobi didn't fight the clone wars.
He fought the second world war.
First World War =Clone Wars
Second World War = Galactic Civil War (Rebels vs Empire)
Guinness actually fought in WW2, so he had experience to draw from to deliver in his performances.
“If the Soviets strike me down I shall become more powerful than they can possibly imagine”
Downfall in English version
Can we have a Downfall meme?
But we have Downfall at home.
Downfall at home:
One more thing to mark off my "weird things I've seen on the Internet today" list
😂
You can’t win, allied forces. If you strike me down… I shall become more powerful than you can possibly imagine.
'My spirit will rise from the grave'
So he did actually say something similar
So that's how Trump was made.
Classic! "You've spent years in military academies and all you've learned how to do is hold a knife and fork!"
Counts for the all that became a Dutch General, after Shell Queen Beatrix got in Power (1980).
She ( her advisers) concluded that if the Dutch Army have way too much Generals, the chance of a Military Coup would be way less possible.
And see how they installed a Piano Playing Commander at Srebrenica..
Dutch Army got more Retired Generals than Life Ammo for practice !.
The line about the knife and fork was in Downfall too I think. So Hitler probably really said something like that.
@@darth856 And people say only the Americans dropped nukes....
"...while I conquered all of Europe..."
It seems like the sort of common sentiment an enlisted man might have against officers.
man star wars took a weird turn
The Brits are far too mild-mannered for the roles
Yet they screwed 2/3 of the World.....
@@jazsm5385 But in a mild-mannered way, I say.
@@jazsm5385 But saved it as well.
British gentleman do not rant, sir. They hold their pinky on their highest hand out at 45 degrees, raise an eyebrow quizzically, and then clear their throats in a not-overly-loud fashion. And that's when all those assembled know that heads are about to roll, either theirs or a greater number of some other poor bastards. Walk softly and carry a big stick was the English credo long before the so called Roughrider ever existed.
That's why the English gentry and officer class always have their batmen and attendants to do all the rough and dirty work. "Wouldn't want to muddy up one's riding boots too much, now would we? Now there's a good chap."
Anakin: “From my point of view, the Jedi are evil.”
Obi-wan: 2:28
My sides
I can never get tired of seeing this movie , it's been in my collection since 1990 . Brings back enjoyable memories with my father. " 👨👩👦📺
This the moment when Obi Wan becomes Ben Kenobi
"My generals are traitors! You will pay with your blood!"
"Damn fool, I knew you were going to say that!"
"Who's the more foolish, the fool or the fool who follows him?"
@@Milordvega *"Wookie talk"*
They made Alec Guinness ACTUALLY look like Hitler.
There weren't enough stormtroopers to execute order 66....
Sir Alec Guinness plays Hitler here.
You know Hitler?
Alec Guinness: I know that guy. He’s me
Badly
@@franknberry6397 No one can really match up to the late great Bruno Ganz in Der Untergang.
@@CJODell12 He was remarkable. Anthony Hopkins and Derek Jacobi were both excellent as well. But Ganz speaking German really nailed it.
@@franknberry6397 Don't forget about Robert Carlyle, Steven Berkoff, David Bamber, Hugh Scully (The World Wars) too.
It's like the real Hitler trying to act as British as possible
After he informed hitler of the bad news he ended up as a men’s room attendant at the overlook hotel. Wow that’s rough.
Yes, but he was a whiz at getting out drink stains. Just ask Jack Torrance !
Mein Fuhrer, Steiner did not care for the attack at first, so I...corrrrected him.
Haha nice reference joke there.
Luke: So what did you do during the Clone Wars.
Obi-Wan: Uh... I was a space wizard like your father.
It must be a trope with the tyrant: there is much to compare of the last hours of Nero, Richard III, and Hitler.
@John Tait Certainly, sir: all three tyrants found themselves alone, surrounded by a larger force, and abandoned by their allies. It may be argued Hitler was surrounded by friends. . .but in his case it was revealed not a few in that room were only present out of fear not loyalty.
In this case, the remake was better than the original, respect to Alec Guinness, but the absolute rage of Bruno Ganz can't be topped.
By that logic Michael Bay's Pearl Harbor is better than Toro Toro Toro because it's noisier...
0:03 It’s bad enough this guy had to deal with telling Hitler of a failure, then he must tell Blofeld at Spectre that Project Thunderball failed.
Well now it all makes sense. Obi-Wan's warnings to Luke about the Dark Side. He knew its dangers from firsthand experience!
All kidding aside this is so weird to see if you've seen the _Downfall_ scene first. The portrayal of Hitler is so much more reserved.
