Downfall

Satisfaction Guaranteed

One of the most highly acclaimed and controversial films about the last days of Hitler and the end of WWII, Downfall was a 2004 Academy Award nominee for Best Foreign Film and is now in the UK's Top 10 of the highest grossing foreign films ever. Directed by Oliver Hirschbiegel (The Experiment), Downfall features an astonishing performance by Bruno Ganz (The Manchurian Candidate, Wings of Desire) as history's most notorious figure. Providing an unprecedented and controversial insider's perspective, the film is a gripping insight into the madness and desperation of Hitler in the final hours of the war as the Russian Army closes a ring around Berlin. Beautifully photographed and brilliantly acted, this tour de force is at once dramatic, harrowing and remarkably authentic.
