'Hitlerity' ensues as we follow him and his buddy Goebbels as they blitz their way through Europe to retrieve the tape before his high school love Eva would get to see it.

German defeat in Russia only because of U.S. involvement in the war. Otherwise Russia would have been defeated. Massive arms and transportation aid from U.S. through Iran and Archangel. Additionally the U.S. opened second front in Africa then Europe itself. Then bombing campaign on German industry. Without U.S. involvement we would have video of him visiting Moscow.

He did consider that. His political credo in "Mein Kampf" was 'Never wage a war on two fronts !' Why did he abandon it and acted against his better knowledge ? - is the greatest question of all. Rudolf Hess knew teh answer but the British murdered him before he could reveal it and now with his documents classified until 2041 one can be absolutely sure that Hitler was cheated into a war on two fronts by the British...La perfide Albion , Napoleon would say.

For those wondering how much exactly was the 50 RM. During WW2 the “Reichsmark" was roughly 2.50RM to 1US$, so that's 1 US$ in 1940. One dollar in 1940 is worth $18.60 today. In other words, 1 RM would be worth $7.44 today. Thus, 50 RM would be 372$ in today's money.

"Hitler In Paris" was released in 1940 to raving reviews and was soon followed up by 1945's disappointing "Hitler in the Bunker".

The Führer may have been a bit crazy, but he certainly was no fool...He knew a lot about History, Architecture, Cathedrals, Monuments, Classic Music, Literature....and having been utterly poor in his youth, he never could afford a trip to Paris to behold its beauties. That's why he took the great risk of visiting Paris just a few days after the French Capitulation...he was more than eager to see with his own eyes everything he had read about the city during years.

@@elpidiovillarreal6246 I firmly believe that to be anti German propaganda more than anything. If you look at Dietrich's supposed "orders" to do so, then also look at how many times Dietrich lied about many other things, it is very likely that he was never ordered to do anything of that sort. Also, there is no other physical or circumstantial evidence that shows Dietrich receiving that order. Dietrich exclaimed it was just a phone call, how convincing. It is actually more likely that Dietrich if he actually did receive that order, was unable to carry it out because at that time France was seeing a huge revolt, partisans aplenty and the allies closing in. So it is likely that IF he did receive the orders' that he was unable to carry them out due to having his hands tied given the current circumstances.

I always thought he was just a failed artist with minimal cultural knowledge, but apparently he was a true man of culture.

The destruction of german cities is a two sided coin. Don't forget that the big cities and their population were considered strategic targets by the allied air forces. Especially the Brits. Dresden wasn't burned to the ground because Hitler didn't surrender. It was however unnecessary. Just as destroying Paris would have been. There was no surrender. The ideology dictated victory or death long before the war.

But why does the polish paratrooper lough though?"

5:59- Hitler actually brought Napoleon's remains back to France from Vienna as he was a great admirer of Napoleon; and Napoleon was apparently an admirer of Julius Caesar.

This was huge for him it probably made him feel confidence so crazy because he must have felt he was doing so well and felt like king of the world that day.

I spent time in Paris about a month ago, before we left on our trip I watched a doc. on WWII and they had video of Hitler driving in front of the Arc di Triomph and then video of General Eisenhower driving the same route. It gave me goosebumps to think of the history that had taken place as I stood in the same spot. I also spent time along the Normandy coast at Utah and Omaha beach, point du hoc and the American cemetary. I highly recommend those who are into WWII history go and see these places. I will be back. As a side not we spent two nights in a town call Bayeux in a hotel that Eisenhower stayed along with his staff, the hotel is across the street where Churchill stayed at the same time.
