He encontrado otra película a la que habrá que estar atentos.
Ya está en fase de postproducción y lo mejor de todo es que es de producción alemana.
La mayoría de la información que he encontrado sobre ella está en alemán, así que con mi nivel no quiero aventurarme a traducciones de interpretación libre.
Pero por suerte he encontrado un sitio en ingles.
Downfall, The - Hitler and the End of the Third Reich (Untergang, Der - Hitler und das Ende des Dritten Reiches)
Shooting begins in mid-August on a pet project that leading German producer Bernd Eichinger has been toying with for the last 20 years: the story of the last days of Adolf Hitler in his Berlin bunker in 1945 in The Downfall - Hitler and the End of the Third Reich.
Eichinger describes this ambitious project as being like "a canoe trip on a torrential river which is racing towards a waterfall. The speed is getting faster and faster and you know that it's impossible to get out." But it was only after he read Joachim C. Fest's historical account which appeared last year that he knew how to tackle the highly sensitive subject.
In fact, he took just four weeks to write the screenplay - also drawing upon the memoirs of Traudl Junge, Hitler's secretary from 1942 to 1945 - and Fest was the first person to get to read it. "If he had said that this was the biggest load of rubbish I have ever read then I would have quietly put it back on the shelf and would have never spoken about it again," Eichinger recalls, but Fest was "very impressed."
"We are making a grand, epic feature film," Eichinger adds. "Authenticity is the top priority."
The $15 million film chronicles events in the bunker starting with 20 April 1945 - Hitler's 56th birthday - and including his joint suicide with Eva Braun who he had married the day before. Outside, the Soviet Army is closing in on the center of Berlin in a fierce house-to-house battle, and, on May 8th, the Third Reich surrenders.
The crème de la crème of German acting talent has been assembled under director Oliver Hirschbiegel who is perhaps best known to international audiences for his award-winning psychological drama The Experiment. Swiss actor Bruno Ganz, known for his roles in such films as Wim Wenders’ Wings of Desire and The American Friend, is playing the part of Adolf Hitler, with Juliane Koehler (Nowhere In Africa) as Eva Braun and Corinna Harfouch (Bibi Blocksberg) as Magda Goebbels. Hitler’s personal secretary Traudl Junge will be played by Alexandra Maria Lara (“Naked”, and most recently Cowgirl), and other key roles have been cast with Daniel Bruehl (Good Bye, Lenin!), Ulrich Noethen (Comedian Harmonists), Birgit Minichmayr (Taking Sides), Thomas Kretschmann (The Pianist) and Justus von Dohnányi (The Experiment and September).
After the project's presentation at this year's Cannes Film Festival, Dirk Schuerhoff of sales company EOS Distribution reported "extremely high interest" from buyers coming from Japan, USA, Eastern Europe, France and Italy. Ideally, they could time their theatrical releases for 2005 to coincide with the 60th anniversary of the end of the Second World War.
Oliver Hirschbiegel was born in 1957 in Hamburg. He had his television debut as author and director of the TV movie Das Go! Projekt (1986). In 1991, Moerderische Entscheidung - Umschalten erwuenscht followed. He has won numerous awards for his television work: the Tatort episode Kinderspiel (1992) won the prestigious Adolf Grimme Award. He also won Grimme Special Prizes and RTL Golden Lions for Trickser (TV, 1996) and Das Urteil (TV, 1997), both of which also received Emmy nominations for Best Foreign TV Drama. He received the Bavarian Television Award 1999 for Todfeinde (TV, 1998). He has also directed 14 episodes of the TV series Kommissar Rex (1993), the Tatort episode Ostwaerts (1994), and the TV movie Rex - die fruehen Jahre (1997). He had his feature film debut with The Experiment (Das Experiment,2001), followed by My Last Film (Mein letzter Film, 2002).
