Movie Reviews of Hitler: The Last Ten Days

Movie Review: A Mesmerizing Guinness Performance
Summary: 3 Stars

Defiantly cast against type, Alec Guinness transforms "Hitler: The Last Ten Days" (1973) into a strangely compelling cinema of the absurd. When considering the claustrophobic madness of those final days in April 1945, director Ennio De Concini's surreal approach works better than expected. Speaking with a grandfatherly British accent, Guinness offers an eccentric yet mesmerizing interpretation of Adolf Hitler - punctuated by striking close-ups that emphasize the German ruler's charismatic evil. Individual sequences evoke the perverse quality of a two-reel comedy, especially Hitler and Eva Braun's suicide pact and its reaction from the Führer's inner circle. Though erratic in tone and pacing, "The Last Ten Days" is worth seeing for Guinness' admirably off-kilter performance. Classic dialogue: "What a pity for the world you couldn't have devoted your life to art."

Summary of Hitler: The Last Ten Days

Hitler: The Last Ten Days is cinema at its most powerful. Oscar® winner Alec Guinness portrays the dictator in one of his most memorable performances. Spanning the final days from Hitler's 56th birthday to his death, this unflinching peek into the bunker shows us the downfall of a madman. Guinness explores every facet of the challenging role and Doris Kunstmann co-stars as doomed mistress Eva Braun.
