Downfall
In April of 1945, Germany stands at the brink of defeat with the Russian Army closing in from the east and the Allied Expeditionary Force attacking from the west. In Berlin, capital of the Third Reich, Adolf Hitler proclaims that Germany will still achieve victory and orders his generals and advisers to fight to the last man. When the end finally does come, and Hitler lies dead by his own hand, what is left of his… From TMDB

60 of 130 · most liked firstThis reminds me of two scenes in the German movie “Downfall,” which depicts, historically accurately, Hitler’s last days. Both scenes involve Hitler and Albert Speer discussing Hitler’s “Nero Order,” by which the Führer had ordered the destruction of the Reich’s remaining economic infrastructure...
unlabelledView post →Acosta: I think he is in full freak-out mode, sort of like that German movie Downfall, where the Allied forces are advancing on Berlin… I’m almost picturing Trump in sort of the same mindset right now. You know, “This poll says this, sir. This poll says that, sir,” and he’s losing his shit.
unlabelledView post →From the movie Downfall: Joseph Goebbels: "I feel no sympathy. I repeat, I feel no sympathy! The German people chose their fate. That may surprise some people. Don't fool yourself. We didn't force the German people. They gave us a mandate, and now their little throats are being cut!" "Mandate."
unlabelledView post →And for the last several years, because I thought it so evocative of Trump and his circle, I have been urging people to watch "Downfall," the 2004 German-language film that depicts Hitler's last ten days or so in the Führerbunker. ...
unlabelledView post →Good morning and happy Wednesday to everyone. Ladies and gentlemen, the latest iteration of the "Hitler Rants" meme from the 2004 German film "Downfall." You're welcome. 🔊🔊🔊#FuckTrump
unlabelledView post →Robert Ebert’s review of Downfall in 2004 was as absolutely masterful as the movie itself. #history #wwii #skystorians #extremism
unlabelledView post →I watched Downfall (about final days of Hitler & his regime). Amazing and difficult film. I was struck by how, even knowing he was finished and about to kill himself, Hitler was willing to let Germans civilians die. He said they'd let him down. He blamed everyone but himself for the Nazi defeat. 1/

unlabelledView post →we really need an Operation Downfall movie. Americans need to understand what utter hell and devastation would have resulted from a land invasion. The worst would not have been the losses we suffered. Those would have been terrible but expected. It would be civilians
unlabelledView post →The Family Guy movie is now in production! The title is “Family Guy: Downfall of E3”. See you all in 2026! :)
unlabelledView post →Fast forward through the horribleness. At some point, someone will make a Downfall-style movie about Stephen Miller in the White House bunker. And the memes that will be made, riffing on that movie, will be funny af.
unlabelledView post →so I watched Downfall last night and it's an intense, gruelling 2.5 hour movie and I gotta tell you that meme is really never gonna land the same way again for me
unlabelledView post →What's your group chat's equivalent of the Grink? One of my friends made the mistake of saying he liked the film The Island (2005), once, twenty years ago. He could be like "I just watched Downfall. Very upsetting film" and we'd go "Better or worse than The Island?"

unlabelledView post →18/ – the relief armies that weren't: as the movie 'Downfall' memorably illustrated, Hitler was convinced that armies which had been destroyed or were incapable of attacking would come to the rescue.
unlabelledView post →Regarding Godzilla Minus One: holy fucking shit. Like if Shin Godzilla, Das Boot, Downfall, and Jaws were all the same film. I’m sitting there in the theater crying over a goddamn Godzilla movie.
unlabelledView post →I think it's honestly telling that people I am blocking responding to this are convinced that any movie depicting Operation Downfall would inherently be dehumanizing. The movie "Downfall" itself about Berlin was....aside from the Hitler rant....deeply sad
unlabelledView post →Of all the films I've watched, I think Downfall best captured the Nazi aesthetic for what it truly is. The film doesn't do wide shots to build prestige. And all the locations clearly look older than the Nazi party itself. Because the Nazis didn't build them, they just appropriated them.
unlabelledView post →What a good movie, that Downfall.
unlabelledView post →My library has Downfall on a long reserve list. Luckily my name came up and I watched it a few days ago...fantastic movie. Watching his decline into deeper and deeper madness and watching his inner circle either terrified of him or totally fawning over him is almost like watching the WH today.
unlabelledView post →Downfall (2004) is a film about the very final days of Hitler and the Nazi regime, based on eyewitness testimony. It features a fantastic performance from Bruno Ganz, and is one of the most poignant, hard-hitting depictions of narcissism in film. youtu.be/OwoCXOS_L1M
unlabelledView post →The movie about this in 50 years will have a scene that supplants the meme of Hitler in Downfall.
unlabelledView post →I reckon it would be a good move for cinemas in the US to be showing the original Downfall film now. Magnificent film with huge relevance for today
unlabelledView post →I'd unfavorably compare DOWNFALL to CONSPIRACY, another movie that's told from the perspective of high ranking Nazis during the war yet still manages to accurately portray all of them as despicable monsters.
unlabelledView post →Have you watched the movie 'Downfall'? Excellent movie!
unlabelledView post →Apparently there are very credible reports from journalists in the White House Press Office that the President can be heard screaming and ranting in the Oval Office. Yesterday Miller & Hegseth were balled out. It's all a bit like that film Downfall...
unlabelledView post →The entire oligarch class and their minions are exhibiting group amphetamine psychosis in their every action. It's like watching a massive LARP of the movie Downfall without the snazzy uniforms.
unlabelledView post →For anyone who hasn't seen this film, it's incredible. Highly recommend it. "Downfall" or "Der Untergang."
unlabelledView post →In a similar vein, the way Downfall (2004 German film) portrayed the final days of the Nazi regime was likewise chilling. Not so much the banality, but the terrifying, abject detachment from reality that infected the entire regime. The echoes I see of it now among the Trump regime frightens me.
unlabelledView post →But history offers frightening examples of how bad things can get. Krugman points to the German film Downfall, which portrays the final days of Adolf Hitler, saying, “the parallels are there.” For example, “Hitler was obsessed with building a gigantic gaudy ballroom.” (cont.)
unlabelledView post →Mid-century was not kind to the Queen of Atlantis, with censor bars faking a lustier film and the whole thing turned into a generic Hot Guy is Power Woman's Downfall thing. Meh.
unlabelledView post →I say this with all seriousness: someone needs to string together every single 'Downfall' meme ever produced and air them together at the MoMA on a loop, like that clock movie
unlabelledView post →I watched a video on YouTube about the movie Downfall and now I'm getting recommended Hitler speeches. Cool.
unlabelledView post →I know Downfall is basically just the meme now, but wow, what an excellent film.
unlabelledView post →I will say that even though conservatives love it (because it is a COMMUNISM BAD movie) I do not find the politics of THE LIVES OF OTHERS objectionable, unlike the *other* German Oscar-bait movie from that era, DOWNFALL bsky.app/profile/pato...

As I spend every day recently witnessing rise of authoritarian state in U.S., needed a little pick-me-up. Rewatching stellar depiction of final days of Third Reich. Essential viewing. #filmsky 📽

unlabelledView post →Downfall. Arguably the BEST film about Hitler. Its 100% in German so be prepared for subtitles. The movie is SO good, i own it on DVD!
unlabelledView post →Acosta: I think the polling has him freaked out. I think he is in full freak-out mode, sort of like that German movie Downfall, where the Allied forces are advancing on Berlin, and there’s that famous scene of Hitler freaking out, screaming at everybody. x.com/Acyn/status/...
