it is the rare 'crazy' movie that actually has something to say.

Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

THE STRANGE DEATH OF ADOLF HITLER is an odd little film. I remember seeing as a 10 year old who was at the time fascinated by WWII and the Fall of the Third Reich. This movie showed up one afternoon on the TV in our basement club house and I found it an ironically twisted tale similar to the O. Henry's"The Gift of the Magi" only in this version the husband saves his wife by imitating Hitler and the wife ultimately saves her husband by killing him. Definitely worth a look,though finding a copy of the film in descent shape is virtually impossible.

Another great film about Hitler, great acting and a great story, similar to others about impersonation - but well worth watching...

In recently occupied Vienna, good-natured Ludwig Donath (Franz) jokes about a recent speech made by Hitler and before he knows it, the Gestapo come calling for him. He is taken from his family and that's it. He's in big trouble. However, his powers of mimicry spare his life as he is given an assignment to help the Nazi cause. His wife Gale Sondergaard (Anna) follows her heart as her hatred for the Nazis builds, especially when her children are taken from her. She decides on a plan.It's a short film that moves at a good pace even if the story is a little crazy. Donath's impressions are all the same and he doesn't sound like Hitler. Sondergaard is good as always and I guessed what was going to happen at the beginning of the film. Still, it keeps you watching.

I will not add anything much to the previous comments for this feature. I just discovered it today. I had heard of it, but not more. I first thought I already saw it, but I confound with MAGIC FACE, starring Luther Adler, who plays in the Frank Tuttle's film an actor who looks like Hitler and decides to impersonate him against the Nazis will, of course. In this very film, STRANGE DEATH OF ADOLF Hitler, the main character is forced by the German to impersonate the Führer, a ringer, to protect him against a criminal attempt. I won't tell you the climax, another user already had, unfortunately.But it's rather a very good propaganda film for this time.
