 Watching Hitler January 24, 2010

DVD reviewed presents a well-narrated biography of Adolph Hitler but movie is black and white except a main menu command.
 All-Color Footage Makes History of Hitler Look New January 9, 2010

I have seen many a documentary about the rise and fall of Adolph Hitler and Nazi Germany,
but this recent one, in blazing color, narrated by actor Brian Cox, is one of the very best.
The bright and splendid color brings this familiar but still frightening story out of the
past and makes it appear to be happening TODAY. It is stunning to see the red Nazi banners
with swastikas billowing throughout old Berlin. For a moment you realize how it would feel
to actually BE there (for me a terrifying sensation-- the people running things were NAZIS)!
It is striking to see nude Eva Braun doing gymnastics by a lake, and then with the typically
serious-looking Fuhrer, receiving top Nazi guests at the utterly pleasant-looking Obersalzberg.
You get a chance to see the actual hues of Third Reich uniforms on the happy-looking visitors.
There is remarkable footage of Hitler charming famous British politician Lloyd George into
believing that Germany is no threat to world peace. We also see Hitler demonstrating the might
of his armed forces to that less successful dictator, Mussolini.
When Hitler attacks Poland, the realism of the color footage makes you feel that you are THERE,
and it's chilling. The conflagration of World War Two in Europe, and the Holocaust, is clearly
presented in much hitherto-unseen footage. Brian Cox narrates the events in an understandable flow.
German actors read the arrogant and hateful words of Hitler, Goebbels, and other "Master Race-ists."
When they are finally squashed, after 50 million dead, I for one wondered, what is to be learned
from this incredible calamity? Maybe it's-- always be skeptical of those people to whom you give power!
Color Film of Hitler Welll Made April 21, 2009

Hitler In Colour took me by surprise. This is a very well made and tight documentary that will flood your visual senses with REAL color footage mainly focusing on Hitler. This film is less than 90 minutes but I never felt rushed and was emotionally involved from beginning to end.
The film contains two types of narration - the standard type which describes historical events and also readings by actors of diaries and notes written by the German people involved in the war. The readings by actors was a little "weak" in my opinion and took a little away from the film.
Keep in mind that this short film is not a complete look at WW2, but what is does do, it does very well. There are some scenes like those shown in the ghettos of Warsaw that hit me hard and had a lasting impact.
Make sure to check out the extras especially the Video Montages.
Hitler in Color April 7, 2009

Hitler in Color, is a well done synopsis of Hitler's rise to power and a good behind the scenes look at what went on in Germany during WWII. It is short, less than an hour long, but good for what it does. You get a feel for how things were in Germany during the war, and gain some insight into Hitler's mind.

For a documentary of Hitler, this dvd is top notch. To see the history in color brings the entire Third Reich to a level that makes it real compared to black and white footage.
