I thought this was a fascinating look at the last days of Hitler,brilliant acting especially by Bruno Ganz as Adolf Hitler.

watched it on cable... disturbing, but mesmerizing movie. Especially awful was the Goebbels family sub-plot.

The Goebbels character was very disturbing,he just looked like death...did you feel like the movie put a human face or touch to these monsters?,that was one of the criticisms when the movie came out....I certainly did,at times had to catch myself for feeling a bit sorry for them.
