    Off all of the 5 was Friedhelm the best one. A man of principles. He was not even a nazi, he just became the Monster he needed to be in order to survive. I love this guy!

      He didnt even want to survive. He wanted to die rather than be part of it but later he just resigned on morality and went with it. Then he surely wanted to die.

      Others are right. I think, he wanted to live (signs of his frustration, when one of kids shoots and show Russians their position), but he was affraid, that kids would play heroes and got themselves killed. So he sacrificed himself, to show kids, what war is. And maybe to redeem his deeds. His death is very touching

    Friedhelm was a complete antipode of his brother: very tied to reasoning and morals. Across the war, they switched places. Wilhelm started to doubt what are the real reasons of war, more thinking about how right was his brother. Friedhelm stopped doubting at all. He became a mechanical hand of the army.
    However, even after hanging people and shooting lots of enemies, he remained a human and saved his Jewish friend.

      @@kmit9191 like the fact that both Friedhelm and Wilhelm would have been disobeying leaders is beyond unrealistic for the Wehrmacht. It’s a post war show portraying Germans as regular people as well, but unfortunately in real life the Germans were extremely stubborn in their belief of being the superior race, and the guy who killed the little girl definitely would not have apologized for example. The eastern front was straight up a murder campaign against the Russians that would not have spared any adult so for Friedhelm to have that kind of humanity towards the end was unlikely. The fact that they would’ve been reluctant to kill the Russian prisoners is another example, completely biased and unrealistic. The show did not show the gang culture of the mechanized army that murdered everything in its path. The truth. Watch a movie called come and see for contrast it’s written and directed by a Slav who actually lived in the same forest that Friedhelm dies in at the end. Your mind will be blown

      @@fergydatruth8742 Funny that you're telling all that to someone whose grandfather was in Volkssturm and got saved by his superiors giving them the order to desert. I've talked to some people that lived during that time, here and in the Netherlands. Many Germans didn't hate the Jews more than other countries to begin with, but indoctrination goes good ways. Still many defied, and it is not unrealistic that he wouldn't shoot a superior compared to his long time friend when he already knows in 5 years his officer just like himself will be dead anyways. This Movie shows many fanatic people and people like you criticise the one that was the protagonist, because he wasn't fanatic to begin with, but understood at some time that you had no chance.So there are at least some levels of decency in a German war movie for once and only in some people and you criticise the movie for that?

      ​@Polish Hero Witold Pilecki The starter of this thread is an idiot, however, this series is not a lie since it is not a documentary and does not claim to be true and it is a mini-series( not a film). Based on real history is not the same as real history. The creators showed plenty of war crimes committed by Germans. I agree it was dumb to add but they may just have searched for a way to make Viktors (was that his name, watched it too long ago to remember) story more interesting. I can only think the decision was made with the issue of presenting an interesting story at the forefront of their mind but if you have any proof that the creators did try to present Poland in a bad light I'll gladly agree that I was wrong.
      Indoctrinated kids isn't a good prove for your point. Also, these people were constantly bombarded with propaganda so naturally most of them would fall for it sooner or later yet there are hundreds of cases when people tried to help and oppose the NSDAP.
      In my own municipality a teacher, a priest and several others attempted to assist the Allies in destroying a vital factory through transmitting information through a radio hidden in a well. All but one were executed a week before the war ended.
      If you simply rip a single occurrence out of context you'll never understand those people. And understand them we must. Or these things will reoccur, sooner or later. Also, not following a Nazi officials command was treason so they would also have been killed.
      And only forty per cent voted for Hitler. The rest were caught with them and forced into a war nobody wanted, with the option to speak up, get incarcerated and executed or attempt to get through this mess alive.
      Germans did not have to be reeducated, Nazi officials had to be removed from powerful offices in the state. Most Germans were horrified but couldn't do anything. It is easy for you to judge from your save keyboard and attack those people when you were not threatened to get executed if you stepped out of line. A girl suffering from a mental illness who lived in my village back before world war 2 was murdered by the Nazis. My own great grandfather almost ended up dead because he refused to support the NSDAP. I understand your grieve as a Pole since Germany killed many of your countrymen but you are doing the exact same thing the Nazis did. Dividing people into categories instead of seeing the person. Once the individual was removed and traits assigned to people (Gypsy, Gay, Jew, traitor) they could be attacked. Their personality did not matter. Their acts did not matter. As a member of those undesirable people, it was not necessary to prove they had done something wrong. Simply being them was their crime. And this is exactly what you are doing. You would have been a good Nazi.

      @Polish Hero Witold Pilecki Films will never be entirely accurate. Don't see it as a documentary. It is not. I said I found it stupid and insensitive to portray a polish resistance group like that but that does not change my opinion. Austria-Hungary is often portrayed as a peoples prison even though they were often liberal and as an Austrian I am not offended. Beside the fact that it was occasionally true, truth does not change just because of it's potrayal in media. Grown-ups should be able to differentiate between historical fiction and historical documentaries. At least I hope they can...
      The "Volksdeutsche" weren't standing with their back against the wall until the war turned against them. They could have had a relatively peaceful live as long as they didn't voice their criticism. I told you about the group of people in my municipality who tried to oppose the Germans and all but one ended up dead.
      The Polish were standing with their backs against the wall.
      It might be cowardly to not stand up against the Nazis but you said yourself how even innocent people who did not stand up against the Germans were punished. This also happened to people and families affiliated with perceived traitors of the German cause. Everyone who was not with the Nazis wasn't German and therefore disposable. By their decisions these "traitors" affiliated themselves with all kinds of undesirables.
      They would be barred from financial aid and other things, their children would be taken away, etc.
      It takes balls to stand up against terror when you aren't it's target. Now I am a volunteer EMT and firefighter and even though I have seen a bit of danger (I am living on the countryside so we thank god rarely have serious fires and accidents) I doubt I would dare to oppose such unjust policies if it could cause my own death or imprisonment.
      And you proved my point by calling me German. I am from Austria (though I might not have mentioned that) and have no affiliation with Germany. I also criticized the NSDAP openly for it's idiotic stance and crimes.
      You throw all Germans into a single boat just because they had the bad luck of being born in such a time (and again: only 40 per cent voted for Hitler, so 60 per cent were against him). Their fault was to be too disinterested or easy to look away from politics but not being evil. It's hard to stay focused on politics if you work forty to fifty hours per week. We see this in the present as well. People who simply vote for the same party every year just because they have always done so without checking whether they actually support the course these people want the country to take.

      @Polish Hero Witold Pilecki The stuff which Poles were depicted doing in this German series is nothing compared to what they actually did. Antisemitism and prosecution of Jews is deeply rooted in at least recent Polish history. In fact it is so bad that even today not only on the national level but government level Poland tries to deny everything that happened during that war and quite openly express antisemitic sentiments and behaviour. Germans at least own up to what they did as far as the country's official position goes and actions in terms of financial reparations and accommodations to the families of the war victims and Israel are concerned. But Poles never officially acknowledged what they did, never issued any apology and try to distance themselves from that bloody chapter of their history as much as possible. I know people who were born in Poland and lived through those events. They survived and live in other countries today. Even though Polish is their mother tongue they refuse to speak it because it feels like tasting dirt in their mouth - that is how deep the scars left by those events go, so don't be sitting here denying everything, you are not competent to do so on any level. Also based on the spamming which you left here I assume you are receiving money for sitting here and leaving those comments, engaging in keyboard wars. Russia does the same thing - hire people who sit online for hours on various relevant forums while pushing discussions in the "desired" directions. As far as the events of the past are concerned, don't worry, there is justice in this world, and there is such a thing as collective responsibility. The things that this nation released into the universe will eventually return - they are already returning, it's just that some people still don't get it.

  • @sif_2799
    @sif_2799 3 года назад +5

    Friehelm's character development was so realistic. Firstly ofc characterwise, that he became that way when he was so sensitive and soft and secondly because that's what happened in real life. Towards the end, most soldiers on the east front were brutalised, their was no comradeship anymore, everyone was there just for himself, 15k soldiers were killed for disobeying orders (for comparison, in ww1 it was around 50) and other factors all contributed to that.

    Friedhelm didn't deserve to die, he was my favorite character honestly. It sucks that he died in the end but I'll be honest, he went from a coward to tough as nails fast while his brother went from a tough commander to not necessarily a coward but despising the war. The German people have no reason to continue to shame themselves after all these years, their ancestors of the Wehrmacht, SS, and Volkssturm fought for what they believed in and against those "Kommunisten Schwein". Patton was right we did defeat the wrong enemy.

Like why couldn’t he have purposely missed the child if he was so horrified of a child being shot in the back of the head earlier in the series? He’s definitely a smart person who knew exactly how things would play out the way they did, but why was he so powerless to resist becoming what he hated? Great character development and probably quite realistic, but to say he was a good person is wrong imo

      When he got the new recruit sniped in the head so he could escape the Russian phone station is a prime example. Leaders typically don’t let their guys get domed so they can escape. Just saying. It shows how diabolical the Germans were in particular.

      @@fergydatruth8742 Friedhelm didn't get the New recruit to be shot in the head. Actually, he told him before to keep his head down because there are siberian snipers out there. He even felt sorry because He couldn't take the body with him. Only the dog tag. It was just a example how fast unexperienced new soldiers can die cause they forget general things the old soldiers know. Like to keep their heads down.

    The same thing that has allowed us to be so good at waging war is the same thing that has allowed us to progress to where we are as a species.

    Friedhelm didn‘t kill himself. The little kids wanted to keep fighting, thinking it would be propaganda what the russians Said. So he sacrificed himself so that the children see that there is no point in continuing to fight.

      It was all of it. He was not able to cope with what he had done during war, maybe he thought he didn't deserve a life afterwards and wanted to give his existence at least some sense or deeper meaning after all by showing these kids what will happen if they try to fight.
      If he only wanted to avoid Siberia, he could just have thrown away his uniform in a good moment just like thousands others did at the end of the war..thats what the whole scene is about - that he decided not to hide in shame, he stood up and took the consequences of his actions.

      He did what was necessary to show them what war really was. And what would happen if they continued fighting.
