      The reason probably is that the actor is Austrian as was Hitler (initially), hence they have a similar tone in their accentuation.

    That actors voice resembles Hitlers real voice so closely it’s uncanny. A lot of movies and shows try to portray him as having a high almost silly exuberant sounding tone, but in reality he actually had a very deep, resonating and clear tone. Valkyrie (for all its faults I know) also portrayed Hitler well. There’s a good Mark Felton clip that shows his real voice.

      The actor played Hitler with a hunched, diminished pose. As far as I have read & seen, this is realistic due to Hitler's ongoing ill health leading to drug addiction. The July 21 plotters must have seen his weakness and snatched an opportunity to remove him. Remember, both Rommel and von Rundstadt had given up any hope the western Allies could be thrown back from their bridgehead by June 16 1944.

      Indeed, my original comment was not historically correct with times, years, etc. I know Hitler was homeless before WW1, and many years after the first world war, he became chancellor. My point is that a homeless artist was eventually able to achieve unimaginable heights of power. And I was comparing that to modern times. Imagine meeting some homeless guy in say LA, and some 25 years or so later, he is president of the united states. But still, in many countries, an ordinary person can reach the top of politics.

    Here is the rough translation I can decipher with my poor knowledge of German.
    It is not word to word. BUT the message is the same (1:39-3:45)
    (I took in high school)
    Hitler: Thank you gentlemen could you please come, please.
    I am stunned, stunned by the failure of our local commanders
    As well as our army that the enemy has caught sleeping in their beds in their underwear.
    I hate to know our true the conditions of our soldiers..
    Rundstedt: We are surprised that the army was asleep ourselves my Fuhrer
    Hitler: Nice to know that the soldiers cried and trembled while their lamps were standing firmly against the landings!
    Rommell: My Fuherer, my troops fought fiercely and if we cried and did not prevent the landing. Then it is the failure of the Navy and Luftwaffe.
    The Army, leadership and troops are fighting with all of its superhuman might.
    But the enemy's air supremacy, unhindered enemy naval forces has made our planned actions
    against the enemy impossible. It is regrettable that no one in the OKW has an accurate
    picture of the front and instead relies on propaganda.
    Hitler: The channel and the ports of Chebourg are suitable to us. Hold it from the enemy. It is the key to Normandy and to France.
    Rommel: Yes, we only have one choice. Stop them at Cherbourg or prevent the break thru. We cannot stop them at both at once. Our strength is limited.
    Hitler: The same view from Rundsted?
    Rundstedt: At the very least we should hold a strong defense in the peninsula and return to the harbor and fortress. Even if we lose the surrounding areas the benefits would--
    Hitler: *I DO NOT WANT TO HEAR BENEFITS OF PULLING BACK! THEY WOULD FIGHT WHERE THEY *STAND!!!* Send a nimble commander and show a wide field of weapons we can can decimate the enemy with.
    Other guy: Done (Not the actual translation but the message is the same)

Mind you, it wasn't just counting product. This annual event was a total report card on our facility combined with a Sarbanes Oxley audit, and personnel check. I made up my mind right there that I was getting out of there. Six weeks after that meeting, my last day was the day after the Inventory audit was completed. The Senior Manager of Inventory just about tore him a new one, telling him what he needed to do, after my departure.

    Fascinating footage, though I don't know much German and can't follow the dialogue I know a lot about WW2 and Rommel's role in trying to strengthen the Western shores before the onset of Allied landings and attacks. Rommel was up against a lot of opponents, countering what I think was a sounder strategy than his peers and that of Adolf Hitler, himself, who by now was meddling greatly in the affairs of every branch of the armed forces of Germany, hence leading to his assassination attempt soon to come.
    I think, by now, Rommel goes down in history as having one of or THE best tactical of all the Generals, and Germany would have been better off listening and following through - to the letter - with Rommel's Western defenses! Whether or not this would have staved off or thwarted the Allied landings and eventual beachhead obtained to begin their drive through France and onto Germany is another story. Most experts probably doubt that much, if anything, could have changed the outcome of WW2 for Germany by 1944. However, it is very possible Rommel could have delayed Allied success and this delay may possibly have bought enough time for the inception of a German superweapon, which were desperately in the works by this time but facing supply and fuel crisis, as every strata of German life was facing by this time. Still, when mentioning superweapons, an argument may still be formed and applied to Germany's situation being not entirely hopeless by, at least, pre-allied invasion (June 6th) of 1944, in my opinion!
    I know I'd find this movie fascinating if I could find it with English subtitles. Does anyone know if this movie is available with this option?? Thank you.
    I appreciate the film clips and to Rommel and knowing this film exists; thank you!! I have watched Downfall about one hundred times and I'd probably watch Rommel, if it had English subtitles, at comparable frequency.

      Actually I think Rommel was completely wrong. He wasted tremendous resources on static defences mostly in the wrong Calais area. These were mostly by-passed.
      Rommel's intelligence service was appalling. The Allies were preparing the greatest invasion of all time and Rommel had no idea at all where on the Atlantic Coast they would strike. Finally, he guessed Calais, but he guess wrong!
      Despite the great superiority of allied air power, I support von Rundstedt as the much better general in the West. He wanted to hold the armoured reserves back until they knew exactly where the allies would attack.
      As it was, only the Americans at Omaha Beach suffered heavy casualties and then only because they mostly landed in the wrong place under the cliffs.
      Rommel was a desert general experienced in highly mobile warfare. He was not a defensive general. Plus he had only previously commanded a corps of about 5 divisions.
      Rommel had no experience of the huge battles in Russia where 85% of German casualties were incurred.
      Finally, Rommel broke his soldier's solomn oath and betrayed Hitler. As an 18 year solider I don't hold by this. To me, an oath is an oath. If he didn't like what Hitler was doing, he should have resigned his commission.

    Turn on auto-generated English subtitles, and you will roll out of your seat laughing. The quality and accuracy of the subtitles continue to grow worse rather than better. Just listen to the original German. The performances and the overall mood of the scenes are very accurate, and chilling, even all these years later, even when the outcome is known in advance to the audience.

    The actor who looked and acted most like Hitler was in some Russian film "The Fall of Berlin". Unfortunately, the Russian language does not sound close to the German. The Russian actor had all the mannerisms, the wild eyes, precisely the same nose, the body language perfectly. The actors who played Stalin, Goering, Roosevelt, and Churchill also looked very similar to them.

      That is not necessarily accurate. immediately following the war, the remnant divisions which were not expressly deactivated still wore their traditional Wehrmacht helms (specifically MPs and some divisions of the SS). It was not until 1955 with the formal creation of The *West* German army, the Bundeswehr, did they adopt the Allied style steel helmet. For the East German Army, the Volksarmee, they never altered the helmet, specifically citing the 'distinct german style', and the wehrmacht style helm remained in service until 1990; when it was absorbed into the Bundeswehr following reunification.

Japan didn't enter into a war with the USSR, so USSR moved entire military to the West by December 1941. In January 1942 Germany experienced the first major defeat in WWII. By June 1944 the Germany fate was decided, with or without D day. Actually, D day was a way to occupy the West Europe before Stalin would do this.

    If you switch your settings in UA-cam SETTINGS for SUBTITLES, and choose this: German >> ENGLISH , it does a decent job of translating enough to then understand what they are saying. The usage thing gets slightly awkward but with slight rethink you then get it. And you start to realize English is a derivative of German.....Mixed with a bunch of other derivatives and loan words, etc. etc.etc... Sometimes I will listen and see what comes up on the translation and you hear things, phrasings with words and the total combination sounds familiar somehow and you compare the English translation and it suddenly makes complete sense in correlative terms to certain words and the overall rhythm of the phrasing. I find it VERY TRIPPY! How languages, and words actually work and the connections between those languages.

    As indian I keen to learn about European history and especially About Germany. Even I have started to learn Deutsch . I always wonder if Hitler used his power for good purpose then today this world could see the new and different era . They fought tough for their motherland, but their cruelties in the camps showed that they crossed the extent above the huminity . If Israel had exist in that times than definitely they won the war . At the end German language is spectacular language ..

      Cruelties in the camps? Look into what the Japanese did in China and how many Allied P.O.W.'s died in Japan in Japanese camps compared to a Luftwaffe P.O.W. camp.

      @@davidb2206 It’s true that the Japanese were far crueler than the Nazis or even Soviets but that still doesn’t excuse the fact that the Holocaust was brutal.
      Though it’s still concerning when even the SS is disgusted at what the Japanese did...

      @@scanida5070 Nobody used the word "holocaust" in 1945. Not Patton and not Eisenhower, who were at the labor camps. Ann Frank died of typhoid, just like Lincolns' son and General Lee's daughter. It is common in labor camps. Meanwhile, Stalin murdered around 30 million, mostly Christians. Why doesn't that get equal air time? Stalin took the other half of Poland and nobody "declared war" on him in 1939. Mao also murdered around 30 million. Is "bad Hitler" used to cover up for what the communists have done, exterminating over 100 million?

      i will translate the last part of the video:
      Rommel:what happens now?
      Rundstedt: ich sehe black (i see black)
      Rommel:we should tell him clearly that the situation is futile
      Rundstedt:go ahead, he listens to you
      Rommel: you have the command in the west
      Rundstedt:my power is just enough to let the guards in the HQ patrol from left to right
      (Rommel goes to hitler)
      Rommel:my leader you know im your most loyal servant, can i?
      Hitler: please take a seat
      Rommel: don't you believe that is on the time to think about other solutions?
      Hitler: what do you mean?
      Rommel: to negotiate
      Hitler: nobody negotiates with me anymore, the enemy has decided upon the destruction of germany, now everything depends on the fanatical resistance of each and everyone, are you willing to do that? are you willing to do that rommel?
      Rommel: yes

      In the beginning. H-Man demanded to know how the allies made the Normandy landing (He was assured that it would not happen). Rommel defends the Wehrmacht and blames the Luftwaffe and the Navy for not stopping them first.
      Von Rundstedt at 3:10 wanted to pull the troops out to Cherbourg and Fortress and abandon the peninsula (Normandy?) but H man would not allow it and ordered an "Agile commander" to that area.
