AND THE GERMANS IN THE WORLD HAS CHANGED,

AND THE SHADOWS OF THE PAST ARE OMNİPRESENT TODAY.

THEY HOLD ONTO POWER UNTIİL THE DOWNFALL ON THE 8th OF MAY 1945.

HİTLER'S RULE BEĞİNS WITH GREAT HOPES AND ÜNPRECEDENTED JUBİLATION.

Man: WHAT WAS UNIOUeE ABOUT THE THİRD REİCH

WAS THAT IT BROUGHT ABOUT THE MOST PROFOUND DESTRUCTIİON OF CİVİLİZATION

THAT'S EVER BEEN ENCOUNTERED.

AND THİS 15 BECAUSE THE THİRD REİCH SET OUT TO DESTROY THE VALUES

WHICH HAD EXİSTED FOR 2,000 YEARS--

VALUES ASSOCİATED WITH JUDEO-CHRİSTİAN CİVİLİZATİON--

BASICALLY, IT WAS FATALLY FLAWED ALL ALONG.

Narrator: HİTLER CANNOT ASSERT HIS POWER WIİTHOUT WAR.

İIWOMAN SPEAKING GERMAN)l

Translator: THE ENTİRE NATİONAL SOCİALIST HİSTORY IS ABOUT RADICALIZATIONS.

THEY ONLY HAZARDED ONE STEP AT A TİME

Narrator: FILM FOOTAGE NOT ASSOCİATED WITH THE NAZI PROPAGANDA

DOCUMENTS THE HORRORS OF WAR AND THE ATROCİTİES COMMİTTED.

THE GERMAN SUBJUGATE HALF THE EVUROPEAN CONTİNENT

AND SYSTEMATICALLY LOOT THE DEFEATED COUNTRIES.

ONLY THE DETERMİNATION OF THE ALLIES TO PUT AN END TO THİS AĞGRESSİON

STOPS THE WAR OF ANNIHİLATION.

MILLIONS OF GERMAN SOLDİERS BECOME THE VICTIMS OF THE DICTATORS'HUBRİS.

THE SENSATİONAL EARLY SUCCESSES MAKE HİTLER BELİEVE HE 15 IİNFALLIBLE,

AND FOR A LONG TİME THE GERMANS HAVE FAİTHİNHİM.

Man: HİTLER HİMSELF, IT COULD NOT BE CONCEALED,

HAD ACTUALLY STOOD BEHİND THİS GERMAN DEFEAT IN STALINGRAD.

AND SO FOR THE FİRST TİME NOW, THE GERMAN POPULATION BLAMED HITLER PERSONALLY.

BY THE FEAR OF DEFEAT, A TREMENDOUS FEAR,

WHICH 15 ALSO BASED TO SOME EXTENT ON KNOWLEDGE ABOUT THE ATROCİTİES.

Narrator: AFTER HİTLER'S SUÜİCİDE

AND THE WEİMAR'S CAPITULATION,

IMAGES OF THE CRİMES COMMİTTED IN THE NAME OF GERMANY TRAVELED AROUND THE WORLD.

PEOPLE ARE AĞHAST AT THE REALIZATION THAT THE HISTORY OF THEİR COUNTRY

DURING THE PRESENTATION OF THE NEW CABİNET.

THE NATIONAL CONSERVATIVE VİCE CHANCELLOR

BELİEVES HE CAN KEEP HİTLER İN CHECK

AND MAİNTAİNS "WE'VE HİRED HİM."

Man: HİTLER DİDN'T HAVE ANY BLUEPRİNTS İN MİND AT THAT TİME.

HIS MAİN IİDEAS WERE TO GET NEW ELECTİONS,

FOLLOWIİNG THE ELECTİONS TO HAVE AN ENABLING ACT,

AND TO ACOUİRE POWER IN THE VARİIOUS LENDER--

IN THE VARIOUS STATES LIKE BAVARIA AND SAXONY.

AND FIİNALLY, OF COURSE, OBVİOUSLY TO DESTROY HiS INTERNAL ENEMİES.

1 THİNK THOSE WERE THE MAİN POİNTS THAT HİTLER HAD İN MİND

WHEN HE TOOK POWER IN 1933--

BEYOND THAT, NO CLEAR IİDEA OF HOW THİNGS WOULD DEVELOP.

AND HE MANAGED TO CONVEY THİS SKIİLLFULLY İN HİS SPEECHES.

PEOPLE SAW IN HİM THEİR REDEEMER

HİTLER ÜSES THE OPPORTUNİTY TO SETTLE THE SCORE WITH HİS POLIİTİCAL OPPONENTS.

AN EMERGENCY DECREE SUSPENDS MOST CİVİL LIBERTİES İN GERMANY.

YET THE NAZIS ONLY REACH 444, OF THE VOTES

AND FORM A COALITIİON WIİTH THE NATİIONAL CONSERVATIVE PARTY

THAT GİVES THEM A NARROW MAJORİTY.

İMAN SPEAKING GERMANl

Translator: THE NAZI PARTY WAS THE FİRST PEOPLE'S PARTY IN GERMANY.

IT WAS NOT A PARTY THAT REPRESENTED A SECTİON OF THE POPULATION,

AS THE POLİTİCAL LANDSCAPE WAS STRUCTURED DURİNG THE WEİMAR REPUBLİC.

WITH PARTIES REPRESENTİNG THE CATHOLİCS,

THE WORKING CLASS, OR THE İNDUSTRİALİISTS.

THE CENTER PARTY VOTERS WERE CATHOLIİC AND THE SPD VOTERS WERE LABORERS.

THE DEDİCATED NAZIS WERE FEW AND FAR BETWEEN.

JOSEF GÖOEBBELS STAGES THE OPENİNG CEREMONY FOR THE NEW REİCHSTAG İN POTSDAM

AN OBSERVER COMMENTS, "HE HAS ÜNDENİABLY GROWN."

Kershaw: WELL, THE 21İst OF MARCH 1933 WAS SYMBOLİCALLY VERY IİMPORTANT.

THE DAY WAS CHOSEN AS THE FİRST--

ORİGĞİNALLY 1T WAS GOİNG TO BE--

THE ÖOPENİNG OF THE NEW REİCHSTAG WAS GOİNG TO BE İN APRIL.

BEİNG A SYMBOLİC DAY-- THE FİRST DAY OF SPRİNG--

ALSO THE DAY ON WHIİCH BISMARCK HELD THE FİRST REICHSTAGĞ

AFTER THE GERMAN UNIFİCATION OF 1871.

MORE İMPORTANTLY STİLL, THOUGH, THIS WAS THE MOMENT AT WHIİCH OLD PRUSSİA, SAY,

CAME TOGETHER WITH THE NEW GERMANY.

EVERYTHIİNG WAS DONE İN AN EFFORT TO REPRESENT THE COMİNG TOGETHER OF THE OLD AND THE NEW,

TWO DAYS LATER, THEY ARE THE ONLY PARTY IN THE REİCHSTAG

BERLİN, THE 1ist OF APRİL 1933,

THE DAY ON WHIİCH THE BRUTALITY OF THE NEW ERA MANIİFESTED İTSELF OPENLY FOR THE FİRST TİME.

HİTLER'S CABİNET HAS CALLED FOR A COUNTRYWIDE BOYCOTT OF JEWİSH SHOPS.

İHAMANN SPEAKING GERMAN)l

Translator: THE ACTUAL BOYCOTT WAS A SHOCK FOR GERMANS.

IT ALL HAPPENED OUT OF THE BLÜE.

OÖNE DAY, PEOPLE İN UNİFORM WERE STANDING OUTSİDE THE SHOPS

AND WOULDN'T LET ANYBODY IN.

IT WAS AN OVERT MESSAGE TO THE JEWİSH CİTİZENS

ALL OVER GERMANY

THAT THEY COULDN'T BE PART OF THE NATİIONAL COMMUNİTY...

BECAUSE THEY BELONG TO ANOTHER RACE OR DON'T HAVE THE RİGHT ANCESTRY.

Narrator: CONTRARY TO THE CLAIMS OF THE PROPAGANDA MACHİNERY,

THE BOYCOTT1S NOT PARTICULARLY SÜCCESSFUL.

MANY CUSTOMERS SİMPLY İGNORE THE POSTERS AND SİGNS OF THE STORMTROOPERS.

FOR GERMAN JEWS, HOWEVER, THE DAY WILL BECOME A TRAUMATIC MEMORY.

(ALY SPEAKING GERMAN)l

Translator: A LABORER DURİNG THE WEİMAR REPUBLİC DİDN'T KNOW WHAT "HOLIİDAY" WAS.

BY THE END OF THE THİRD REİCH, EVERY WORKER HAD A LEGAL RİGHT

IT WAS SOMETHİNG THAT WAS IİNTRODUCED THEN,

ALONG WIİTH OTHER ELEMENTS CONTRIBUTİNG TO LEİSÜRE TİME

AND ENJOYMENT OF LİFE İN GENERAL,

THİNGS THAT DİDN'T EXİST BEFORE.

IN THE EYES OF THE GERMANS, THE CREDİT FOR ALL THİS WAS DUE TO THEİR FUEHRER.

Narrator: İN THE FACE OF 6 MILLİON JOBLESS GERMANS,

HİTLER LEADS THE POPULATION TO BELİEVE THAT MASS ÜNEMPLOYMENT

CAN BE COMBATTED THROUGH THE CONSTRUCTİON OF AUTOBAHNS

AND OTHER COSTLY ECONOMY-STIMULATING MEASURES.

(HITLER SPEAKING GERMAN)l

THOSE WHO APPEAR UÜNİMPRESSED BY THE SPIİRİT OF OPTİMİSM

OR OFFER RESİSTANCE TO THE DICTATORSHIP

ARE MERCİLESSLY PERSECUTED BY HİTLER'S HENCHMEN.

HERMANN GOERİNG HAS ONE OF THE FİRST SO-CALLED RE-EDUCATION CENTERS

BUİLT İN ORANİIENBURG, NEAR BERLİN.

UNLİKE THE NAZİI PROPAGANDA SUGGESTS,

PEOPLE THERE ARE TORTUÜRED AND MURDERED WITH HİS CONSENT.

IN PRUSSİA ALONE, OVER 25,000 PEOPLE ARE İNTERNED İN CAMPS.

AS OF THE 26th OF APRİL 1933,

GOERİNG AUGMENTS THE COERCİVE APPARATUS OF THE NAZIS

WITH THE ESTABLİSHMENT OF THE GESTAPO--SECRET STATE POLİCE.

DESPİTE THE FACT THAT ALL OPPOSİTİON PARTİES HAVE BEEN BANNED,

SPONTANEOUS LABOR STRIKES DO TAKE PLACE OCCASIONALLY

BUT ARE OUICKLY SUPPRESSED.

ON THE i1ith OF NOVEMBER 1933,

JOSEF GÖOEBBELS ORGANİZES HIİTLER'S APPEARANCE IN SİEMENSSTADT,

IN THE NORTH OF BERLİN,

AS A DEMONSTRATION FOR THE LABOR FORCE.

"RAPTUROUS CHEERİNG," HE WRITES İN HİS DİARY.

"ALL OF GERMANY 1S STANDING STİLL.

A YEAR AGO, THEY WOULD HAVE BEATEN US TO DEATH."

HIİTLER KNOWS HIS SPEECH 18 TRANSMIİTTED ON THE RADİO AND İN PUBLİC PLACES.

THE NEWSREEL 15 THERE, TOO.

SIEMENSSTADT BECOMES ONE OF THE HIGHLİĞHTS İN THE NAZİS' PROCESS

(HITLER SPEAKING GERMAN)l

İCHEERING)

IN LESS THAN ONE YEAR,

ADOLF HİTLER HAS CONSOLİDATED HIS POWER İN GERMANY

USİNG THE DİCTATORİAL POWERS HE WAS GRANTED AND TERRORİZİNG MEASÜRES,

BUT ALSO WIİTH THE ACTIİVE HELP OF THE MAJORİTY OF THE GERMANS.

HIİTLER HAD TO PERSUADE THE LABOR FORCE THAT NATİONAL SOCİALISM WOULD SECUÜRE THEİR FUTÜRE.

MANY FARMERS, ON THE ÖOTHER HAND, HAD COUNTED AMONG THE NAZİS' MOST FERVENT SUPPORTERS

EVEN BEFORE 1933.

(ALY SPEAKING GERMAN)l

Translator: THE VAST MAJORIİTY OF FARMERS İN GERMANY

WERE HEAVILY INDEBTED AT THAT TİME.

BUT BY EARLY 1945, NOT ONE OF THEM WAS İN DEBT ANY LONGER.

A NEW SYSTEM OF SOCİAL SECURİTY AND İNCOME GÜARANTEE FOR FARMERS

WAS İNTRODUCED IN GERMANY IN 1933,

WITH CROP PRIİCES BEİNG SUBSİDİZED BY THE STATE.

HOWEVER, IN MY VIEW, THIS RELATIONSHIP,

THIS ASSOCİATION BETWEEN THE PEOPLE AND THE LEADERSHIP,

WAS EFFECTİVELY A SPECULATION BUBBLE.

A LOT OF MONEY WAS PUMPED INTO AĞRICULTÜRE,

WHICH WAS SUPPOSED TO COME BACK INTO THE COFFERS İN THE FUTÜRE.

BUT THIS WASN'T POSSIİBLE BECAUSE IT WAS TOO MUCH.

Narrator: THE NAZI REGİME TRIES TO CAPTIİVATE THE PEOPLE

THROUGH A SERİES OF JOB CREATION SCHEMES.

APPROXİMATELY 1 BILLION REİCHSMARKS ARE APPROPRIATED

FOR THE PROMOTIİON OF NATİONAL LABOR.

OVER 80,000 MEN ARE SOON GİVEN JOBS İN AUTOBAHN CONSTRUCTİON ALONE.

TAX RELİEF İN FAVOR OF THE COMMON PEOPLE

IS AN ADDITIONAL BURDEN TO THE TREASURY.

(ALY SPEAKING GERMAN)l

Translator: STRONG SHOULDERS SHOULD CARRY A HEAVY LOAD.

WEAK SHOULDERS SHOULD BE SPARED.

NATIONAL DEBT WAS NOT AN İSSUÜE AT THE TİME.

ÖNE OF HİTLER'S FİRST MEASÜRES WAS TO PUT A STOP TO THE PUBLİSHİNG OF THE REİCH BUÜDGET

FOR 1934 AND SÜUBSEOUENTLY,

WHICH MEANS THAT THE BUDGET BECAME A SECRET IİNTERNAL MATTER.

NO ONE SPOKE TO THE PUBLİC ABOUT THAT,

AND THERE WAS NO MENTİON OF İT IN NEWSPAPERS, EİTHER.

THE PUBLİC WAS UNAWARE.

Narrator: THE ECONOMIİC RECOVERY 15 VERY SLOW TO MATERİALIZE.

THE NUMBER OF ÜNEMPLOYED ONLY DROPS TO ABOUT 4 MILLİON,

BUT THE PROPAGANDA SUCCEEDS İN PRESENTİNG THE GOÖVERNMENT'S MEASURES

AS A SÜCCESSFUL EMERGENCE INTO A NEW ERA

IN WHİCH THE COUNTRY, SELF-CONFİDENT AND MODERN,

WILL BE ABLE TO STAND ON 1TS OWN FEET.

SO ON THE ist OF MAY 1934, CROWDS OF PEOPLE FLOOD OPEN-AİR AREAS ALL ÖOVER GERMANY

TO LISTEN TO THE BROADCAST OF HİTLER'S SPEECH ON THE DAY OF NATİIONAL LABOR.

(HITLER SPEAKING GERMAN)l

DURIİNG THE FİRST YEAR OF HİS RÜLE,

HİTLER HAS PAİD LİTTLE ATTENTİON TO FOREİGN POLİTİCS,

BUT NOW THE REVİSİON OF THE CONDİTİONS OF THE TREATY OF VERSAİLLES,

WHICH WAS IİMPOSED UPON THE GERMANS

AFTER THE END OF THE FİRST WORLD WAR,

BECOMES ONE OF HİS PRİORİTİES.

FOR 15 YEARS, THE SAARLAND HAD BEEN UÜNDER THE ADMINISTRATION

OF THE LEAGUE OF NATİONS.

NOW 1TS STATUS 15 TO BE DETERMİNED BY MEANS OF A PLEBİSCİTE.

PRO-UNİFİCATİION DEMONSTRATIONS ARE ORGANIZED ALL OVER GERMANY,

SUCH AS HERE AT THE MONUMENT TO THE BATTLE OF NATİONS İN LEİPZİĞ.

FOR THE CİTY'S CONSERVATIVE MAYOR, CARL GOERDELER,

THE MATTER 1S A NATIONAL DUTY.

THE SAAR IİSSUE PRESENTS THE NAZIS WIİTH A WELCOME OPPORTUNİTY

TO DEMONSTRATE THE UNİTY AND THE STRENGTH OF THE GERMAN PEOPLE.

(TRUMPET FANFARE)l

ANOTHER KEY OBJECTİVE OF THE NAZI REGİME

1S THE GLEİSCHALTUNG OR FORCED COORDIİNATION OF YOUTH.

THROUGH A COMBINATION OF CAMPSIİTE ROMANTICISM,

MARCHIİNG EXERCİSES, AND COWBOY-AND-INDIAN GAMES,

BOYS AND GİRLS BECOME ACOLUAİNTED WIİTH NATİIONAL SOCİALISM İN SÜUMMER CAMPS.

FOR THE HİTLER BOYS, THE MILITARY DRİLLS START AT A VERY EARLY AGE.

THE PARTY YOUTH MUST BE "TOUGH AS LEATHER, SWIİFT AS THE GREYHOUND,

AND HARD AS KRUPP STEEL."

THEİR TRADEMARKS ARE BROWN SHIRTS AND NECKTİES.

BY 1934, THE HİTLER YOUTH ALREADY COUNTS 1.2 MILLION MEMBERS.

EVERYONE LOOKS THE SAME.

SOMEONE CAN'T TELL IF A CHILD COMES FROM A RICH OR A POOR FAMİLY,

WHETHER ONE CAN OR CAN'T AFFORD EXPENSİVE CLOTHES AND SHOES.

THIS PRİNCİPLE OF EGALITARIANISM, BOTH IN TERMS OF APPEARANCE

BUT ALSO WITH RESPECT TO EOUAL OPPORTUNİTİES,

WAS ALSO PROPAGATED BY HİTLER HİMSELF.

AND HE SAW HİMSELF AS A ROLE MODEL İN THAT SENSE.

HE BELİEVED THAT THE FACTORS THAT DETERMİNED THE DEVELOPMENT OF A PERSON

WERE NOT THE SOCİAL BACKGROUND ONE CAME FROM

BUT ONE'S CAPABILITY AND COMPETENCE.

IN ÖOTHER WORDS, WHETHER A CHİLD 15 BORN WİTH A SİLVER SPOON İN HİS MOUTH OR NOT

DOES NOT MATTER AS REGARDS HIS LATER DEVELOPMENT.

Narrator: THE STORMTROOPERS ARE A STATE WITHIİN THE STATE IN NAZI GERMANY.

THE AMBİTİOUS PLANS OF ERNST ROEHM, COMMANDER OF THE STORMTROOPERS,

HAVE STARTED TO BECOME A THREAT FOR HİTLER'S POWERS.

THE CONSERVATIİVES ARE WARNING OF A PERPETUAL REBELLİON FROM BELOW,

AND THE MILITARY LEADERS ARE AFRAID OF THE GROWİNG POWER OF THEİR DİRECT RİVALS.

HİTLER DECİDES TO ELİMİNATE THE RISK BY FORCE.

IN LATE JUNE 1934, HE HAS ROEHM AND OTHER LEADERS OF THE STORMTROOPERS ARRESTED

AND EXECUTED.

Kershaw: HİTLER, FOR MONTHS AND MONTHS, TO THE İRRİTATİON OF GÖOEBBELS AND MANY OTHERS,

DID LİTTLE TO CHALLENGE THİS.

AND İT SEEMS AS THOUGH HIİTLER WAS VERY HESİTANT, WOULDN'T ACT AT ALL,

UNTIİL İT CAME TO THE END OF JÜNE 1934.

AND AFTER MONTHS OF HESİTANCY, HİTLER DID ACT,

AND WHEN HE DID ACT THEN WITH UTTER BRUTALITY

IN DESTROYİNG THE LEADERSHİP OF THE S.A., OF THE STORMTROOPERS,

AND THEREBY PUTTİNG HİMSELF OF THE SİDE OF THE ARMY.

HE HAD TO DESTROY HİS OWN PARAMILITARY UNIİT

IN ÖRDER TO SİDE WİTH THE FORCE THAT WAS REALLY CRUCIAL TO HIM,

WHICH WAS THAT OF THE ARMY.

Narrator: SHORTLY AFTERWARDS, HIİTLER TRAVELS TO BAYREUTH

TO VISİT WİNİFRED WAGNER WHO HAD BEEN ROEHM'S FRIEND

SİNCE THE EARLY DAYS OF THE MOVEMENT.

REMAİNING COOL AND SELF-ASSÜURED DURIİNG THEİR PRİVATE TALK,

HE JUSTİFİES THE PÜURGE TO HER, ARGUIİNG THAT, İN THE END, ONLY 77 PEOPLE HAVE BEEN EXECUTED.

CHARLEMAGNE, TOO, HAD HAD TO SLAY THE REBELLİOUS SAXONS

BEFORE HE SET THE FOUNDATIONS FOR HIS EMPİRE,

BUT AS EVERYONE KNOWS WAS LATER CANONIZED.

HIS OWN ACTS WERE ALL BASED ON A PRİNCİPLE

THAT EVERYTHING THAT WAS OF SERVİCE TO THE GERMAN PEOPLE WAS GOOD,

HİTLER TELLS HER.

BY THE END OF THEİR RELAXED CONVERSATION,

RICHARD WAGNER'S DAUGHTER-İN-LAW 15 PERSUADED OF ROEHM'S DİSLOYALTY.

İHAMANN SPEAKING GERMAN)l

FOR THE REDEEMER IMAGE THEY WANTED TO PROJECT.

BEİNG THE SÜCCESSOR OF COMPOSER RİCHARD WAGNER,

OF WHOM HİTLER WAS A GREAT FAN,

THE TWO OF THEM APPEARING TOGETHER

AT THE BAYREUTH FESTİVAL

BEFORE THE PERFORMERS AND THE OTHER WAGNERİANS,

WAS A DEMONSTRATION OF HİTLER'S ELEVATION TO A DİFFERENT SOCİAL CLASS.

EVERYBODY WHO CONSIİDERS THEMSELVES IMPORTANT IN NAZI GERMANY

Kershaw: THIS WAS A CRIİTİCAL PERİOD FOR HİTLER, NATURALLY.

AND İT WAS İMPORTANT, THEREFORE, TO BUİLD UP THE İMAGE OF HİTLER

AS THE SYMBOL OF NATİONAL UNİTY,

IN PARTICULAR AFTER JÜST WHAT HAD HAPPENED.

SO VON HİNDENBURG'S DEATH, THEN, HE TAKES OVER, BECOMES THEN THE HEAD OF STATE.

AN OATH OF ALLEĞİANCE 1585 SWORN TO HIM,

WHIİCH 15 THEN--THE OATH OF ALLEĞİANCE, İNTERESTİNGLY ENOUGH

IS SÜUGGESTED NOT BY HİTLER HİMSELF

BUT BY THE VİCE MIİNİSTER VON BLUMBERG.

İCROWD SHOUTİNG "HELİLİ!")

THE OTHER 9074 CONSENT TO THE FUEHRER'S HOLDİNG ÜNRESTRİCTED POWERS.

İCROWD CHANTING İN GERMAN)l

IT IS ONLY NOW THAT HİTLER HAS ATTAİNED HIS GOAL.

NO ONE CAN STOP HİM,

AND MOST GERMANS HAİL HİM WHOLEHEARTEDLY.

HITLER'S MEGALOMANIA IS ALSO EVİDENT İN HİS PLANS FOR THE RESHAPING

OF GERMANY'S CİTİES.

CONSTRUCTİON WORK FOR THE MONUMENTAL EXPANSION

OF THE NAZI PARTY RALLYING GROUNDS İN NUREMBERG

HAS BEEN EXPEDİTED SİNCE THE NAZIS SEİZE POWER.

HİTLER FREOUENTLY SHOWS UP TO IİNSPECT THE PROGRESS HİMSELF

ACCOMPANIED BY FRANCONİIA'S GAÜULEİTER JULİUS STREİCHER,

GERMANY'S MOST FANATIC ANTI-SEMİTİST.

HİTLER, A WOULD-BE ARCHIİTECT, HAS SPECIİFİC IİDEAS FOR THE VAST GROUNDS.

NUREMBERG, A SYMBOL OF THE FİRST GERMAN REİCH

WITH 1TS HALF-TİMBERED HOUSES AND GÖTHİC CHURCHES,

158 THE PERFECT LOCATION TO CELEBRATE HİTLER'S SELF-AĞGGRADIZEMENT

THE CULT AROUND THE FUEHRER

WILL FİIND IİTS CİNEMATIC OVERGLORIİFİCATION SOME WEEKS LATER

IN A FİLM THAT CHARACTERİZES THE İMAGE OF THE THİRD REİCH TO THIS DAY.

ACTRESS AND DIİRECTOR LENİ RİEFENSTAHL

HAD BEEN PERSONALLY COMMIİSSİONED BY HİTLER TO DOCUMENT THE NUREMBERG PARTY RALLY IN 1934.

IN THE FİLM, "TRİIUMPH OF THE WILL,"

THE TALENTED FILMMAKER MONUMENTALİZES HİTLER İN A WAY

THAT TRANSFİGURES THE NAZI PROPAGANDA.

İCHEERING)

Kershaw: THE FİLM "TRİIUMPH OF THE WILL", THEN, AT THE PARTY RALLY OF SEPTEMBER 1934,

IS A CELLULOİD DEPİCTİON OF THE FUEHRER CULT.

SO İT REPRESENTS HİTLER TOWERIİNG ABOVE THE PARTY,

TOWERIİNG ABOVE THE STATE,

AND REPRESENTİNG GERMANY.

AND TO THİS EXTENT, THIS FİLM, ÜUNLİKE THE PREDECESSOR THE YEAR BEFORE,

WHICH HAS BEEN MUCH MORE A FİLM ABOUT THE PARTY,

THIS FİLM 1S ABOUT HİTLER

AND EVERYBODY ELSE THERE 1S REDUCED MORE OR LESS TO SUPERNUMERARIES ON THE STAGE

AS HİTLER REPRESENTS THE SYMBOL OF THE NEW GERMANY.

(BAND PLAYING MARCHl)

Narrator: "TRIUMPH OF THE WILL" BECOMES A BOX OFFİCE HİT ALL ACROSS GERMANY'S CİNEMAS

AND CONTRIİBUTES SIĞNIFICANTLY TO THE IDOLİZATION OF THE DİCTATOR.

Translator: IT WAS SOMETHING LİKE A RELİGİOUS DELÜUSİON,

BUT AFTER ALL, HE WAS SUCCESSFUL

AND HAVIİNG THİS FİLM MADE PROVED HIS GOOD İNSTİNCTS.

HE REALLY FELT HE WAS SPECİAL.

HE WAS, AFTER ALL, THE FUEHRER

AND TRULY BELİEVED THAT IT WAS HİS MİSSİON

TO REDEEM THE NATION AND TO SAVE THE GERMANS.

Narrator: ON THE MORNIİNG OF NEW YEAR'S DAY,

ADOLF HİTLER GREETS ARMY AND UNİTS OF THE STORMTROOPERS

IN THE COURT OF THE CHANCELLERY.

"GERMANY'S RESÜURGENCE," HE PROCLAIİMS, "WIİLL CONTİNUE INEXORABLY IN THE NEW YEAR."

THE FİRST STEP TOWARDS THE END 15 THE SAAR PLEBİSCİTE

ON THE 13th OF JANUARY.

DURING THE PERİOD PRECEDİNG THE REFERENDUM,

JOSEF GÖOEBBELS PULLS OUT ALL THE STOPS OF NATİONAL SOCİALIST PROPAGANDA.

THE OPPONENTS OF SAARLAND'S UNIFİCATION WIİTH GERMANY

ARE ALSO VERY ACTIVE.

IN THE END, AN ÖVERWHELMİNG MAJORİTY OF THE POPULATION VOTES

IN FAVOR OF RETURNİNG HOME TO THE REİCH.

FOR MAİNLY ECONOMİC REASONS, OVER 904 CHOOSE THE NAZI REGİME.

İCHEERING)

Kershaw: THE SAAR PLEBİSCİTE WAS JUST A LUCKY BREAK FOR HİTLER.

THE SAARLAND WAS AN AREA WHICH WAS HEAVILY CATHOLIC

AND HAD A BİG WORKING-CLASS COMPONENT.

SO THE TWO GROUPS THAT HAD BEEN MOSTLY RESİSTANT TOWARDS

THE ALLÜRES OF NATİONAL SOCİALISM

IN THE RUN UP TO POWER IN GERMANY

DOMINATED THE AREA WHIİCH 15 NOW THE SUBJECT OF THE PLEBİSCİTE.

WHEN THE RESULTS OF THE PLEBİSCİTE CAME OUT,

THE VOTE TO RETURN TO GERMANY WAS JUST UNDER 9194, WHICH WAS A PHENOMENAL RESULT

FOR THE NAZI LEADERSHIP,

A BRİLLİANT ACHİEVEMENT OF PROPAGANDA THERE AS WELL.

BUT 1T MEANT NOW THAT THİS WAS A LEGİTİMATİON FOR HİTLER,

BOTH INTERNALLY BUT ALSO MORE İMPORTANTLY EXTERNALLY.

IN THE EYES OF THE WORLD OUTSİDE,

HIİTLER HAD NOW ACHIEVED THIS GREAT RESULT.

HE WAS POPULAR EVEN IN AN AREA WHICH HAD THE ALTERNATIVE CHOİCES İN FRONT OF İT.

Narrator: THE OFFİCİAL CEREMONY OF THE REUNİON OF THE SAAR TERRİTORY WIİTH NAZI GERMANY

TAKES PLACE ON THE ist OF MARCH 1935,

AND HİTLER KNOWS HOW TO STAGE HIS FİRST MAJOR FOREİGN POLİCY SÜCCESS

FOR MAXIMUM PROPAGANDA EFFECT.

HE PROCLAİMS İN SAARBRUECKEN THAT HE 1S OVERJOYED

AND HOPES THAT RELATIONS TO THE FRENCH NEİGHBOR WILL İMPROVE FROM NOW ON.

THE NAZI REGİME CUNNİNGLY MANAGES TO CONCEAL ITS TRUE İNTENTİONS

FROM THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNİTY WHIİLE PRESSİNG ITS DEMANDS AT THE SAME TİME.

THIS 1S ALSO THE CASE DURING THE VİSİT OF A BRİTİSH DELEĞATION TO BERLİN

THAT FRUİTLESSLY NEGOTİATES DISARMAMENT ISSÜUES WIİTH THE NAZİIS.

BRITAİN AND FRANCE HAVE BEEN UÜNYIELDİNG TO HİTLER'S DEMANDS TO REARM THE COUNTRY.

AND GERMANY'S WITHDRAWAL FROM THE LEAGUE OF NATİIONS

HAS AĞGRAVATED THE SITUATION.

EVER SİNCE THEY SEİZED POWER, THE NAZIS HAVE BEEN SECRETLY REARMING GERMANY,

IGNORİNG THE TERMS OF THE TREATY OF VERSAİLLES.

POCKET BATTLESHIİP "DEUTSCHLAND" HAS NO REASON TO HIDE.

WITH HER 10,000 TONS DISPLACEMENT, SHE IS JUST WITHİN THE ALLOWED WEİGHT LIMIT

FOR A GERMAN NAVAL VESSEL ACCORDIİNG TO THE TREATY STIPULATIONS.

WITH THEİR PRESENCE DURIİNG A FLEET MANEUVER,

HIİTLER AND GÖOERİNG DEMONSTRATE THE CLAİM TO POWER

OF A MILITARILY RESTRENGTHENED GERMANY.

SOON AFTERWARDS, THE NAZIS PUBLİCLY DECLARE GERMANY'S REARMAMENT.

Kershaw: REARMAMENTS HAVE BEEN CONTIİNUİNG İN SECRET.

AND ÜNDER THE VERSAİLLES STIPULATIONS,

GERMANY WAS ONLY ALLOWED AN ARMY OF 100,000.

NOW THE NEW CONFİDENCE ENABLED HIİTLER TO TAKE THE STEPS--

WHICH WOULD HAVE BEEN TAKEN EVENTUALLY ANYWAY-- TO RUSH FORWARD

THE ANNOUNCEMENT THAT A GERMAN LUFTWAFFE EXİSTED

AND ALSO TO İNTRODUCE İN MARCH 1935 THE GENERAL CONSOCRİPTİON,

WHICH WAS A COMPLETE BREACH OF THE VERSAİLLES TREATY.

HIİTLER ÜSED A BRİTİSH WHİTE PAPER

WHICH HAD ANNOUNCED ALTERATIONS IN BRİTİSH REARMAMENT

BECAUSE OF THE RECOGNİTİON OF SECRET GERMAN REARMAMENTS THEN.

HİTLER ÜSED THAT AS AN AFFRONT THAT THIS WAS AN EXCUSE TO BRIİNG THIS FORWARD

AND ALSO THE FİGHT THAT THE FRENCH HAD EXTENDED CONSOCRIİPTİON

IN THEİR OWN COUNTRY FROM ONE YEAR TO TWO YEARS.

SO THESE WERE PLAİNLY EXCUSES FROM HIİTLER'S SİDE,

BUT NONETHELESS, THEY SERVED THEN TO BRİNG FORWARD

THE ANNOUNCEMENT OF A GERMAN AİR FORCE AND THEN THE ANNOUNCEMENT OF GENERAL CONSOCRİPTİON.

SO GREAT APPLAUSE OF THE POPULATION WITHİN GERMANY

WHO WERE VERY PROUD OF THE FİGHT THAT THIS HAD BEEN DONE,

BUT, YET AĞAİN, ANOTHER NAIL IN THE COFFİN OF VERSAİLLES.

Narrator: FOR THE LAST 15 YEARS,

THE REİCHSWEHR HAD BEEN AN ARMY OF VOLUNTEERS,

LİMİTED TO A NUMBER OF 100,000 MEN.

NOW MANY GERMAN CİTİES GET TO HAVE THEİR OWN GARRISON AĞAIN.

IN THE TOWN OF WIİSMAR, THE EVENT 15 CELEBRATED WITH A PARADE.

IN A NEWSREEL APPEARANCE, LUFTWAFFE COMMANDER HERMANN GOERİNG

SUMMONS GERMANY'S NEWFOUND SELF-CONFİDENCE.

İSPEAKING GERMAN)l

HERMANN GOERİNG HAD BECOME THE EMBODİMENT OF THE UNİTY BETWEEN PARTY, STATE,

AND ARMY LEADERSHIP IN THE THİRD REİCH.

İHAMANN SPEAKING GERMAN)l

Translator: GOERİNG WAS HİTLER'S OPPOSİTE, PHYSİCALLY,

AND ALL THE MORE SO WHEN HE BECAME BİGGER AND FLABBİER,

NOT TO MENTİON HİS WEARİNG MAKEUP AND ALL HİS REGALIİA.

WHENEVER THEY STOOD NEXT TO EACH OTHER,

HIİTLER WOULD ALWAYS LOOK MUCH BETTER,

AND THIS WAS ESPECİALLY NOTİCEABLE AT GÖOERİNG'S WEDDIİNG İN BERLİN.

THE POMP OF THE CEREMONY WAS UNBELİEVABLE.

HITLER WAS BEST MAN, AND ON THE FİLM ÖF THE WEDDİNG,

HE CAN BE SEEN STANDING NEXT TO THE COUPLE

LOOKİING RATHER PLAİN AND ÜNPRETENTİOCUS,

BUT HE DIDN'T NEED THE GLAMOUR.

HE WAS HITLER, THE REDEEMER.

AFTER HIS ARRIVAL İN WİESBADEN,

HİTLER İNSPECTS A PARADE OF STORMTROOPERS

AS WELL AS ARMY, NAVY, AND AİR FORCE UNİTS.

HANS BAUR 15 THERE WITH HIS CAMERA, TOO.

HERMANN GOERİNG 1S İNDİSPUTABLY THE SECOND-İN-COMMAND IN NAZI GERMANY.

A FACT THAT ONLY FEW PEOPLE KNOW

1S THAT AT THE END OF 1934, HİTLER HAD APPOİNTED HİM HİS SUCCESSOR İN A SECRET DECREE.

İCHEERING)

FOR THE CHEERIİNG NATIONAL COMMUNİTY,

THE FUEHRER lS IİRREPLACEABLE.

EVEN A DICTATOR CAN ALLOW HİMSELF SOME LEİSÜRE TİME,

AT LEAST, THIS 15 WHAT THE FILM "DAYS OF RECREATION FOR THE FUEHRER" SÜGGESTS.

THE NATIONAL COMRADES CAN BUY IİT İN SHOPS,

A CLEVER WAY FOR PIİLOT BAUR TO SUPPLEMENT HİS WAGE.

"A BEAMING CHIİLD'S FACE, AND ALL TROUBLES ARE FORGOTTEN,"

READS THE İNTERTİTLE TO THE SCENE.

THEN THE SMALL PARTY MAKES 1TS WAY TO WIESBADEN'S THERMAL SPRINGS.

HITLER HAS EVERY REASON TO BE CHEERFUL.

AS FUEHRER AND CHANCELLOR OF THE THİRD REİCH,

HE CAN MAKE ALL THE IMPORTANT DECİSİONS.

IT IS NOT CLEAR HOW ABSOLUTE HIS POWER REALLY 158 AT THAT TİME

AND TO WHAT EXTENTS HIS PALADINS CAN İINFLUENCE HİM.

ON THE 20th OF JÜLY 1935,

HIİTLER PAYS ANOTHER VIİSİT TO THE CONSTRUCTİON SİTE

OF THE PARTY RALLYING GROUNDS IN NUREMBERG.

HE IS ACCOMPANIED BY ARCHİTECT ALBERT SPEER,

WHOM THE DICTATOR HAS CHOSEN TO BE THE EXECUTOR OF HİS MEGALOMANIAC PLANS.

HE 1S TO ERECT BUİLDİNGS SUCH AS HAVE NOT BEEN SEEN FOR THOUSANDS OF YEARS.

HİTLER EXPLAİNS TO HİS ARCHİTECT THAT HE WANTS HIS BUİLDİNGS TO TRANSMIT HIİS TİME

AND 1TS SPİRİT TO POSTERİTY.

"ULTİMATELY, ALL THAT REMAİNS TO REMIİND MEN OF THE GREAT EPOCHS OF HİSTORY

158 THEİR MONÜUMENTAL ARCHIİTECTÜRE," HE REMARKS.

SPEER LETS HIS FUEHRER HAVE HIS WAY

AND PROMİSES TO BUİLD STRUCTÜRES WHICH EVEN IN A STATE OF DECAY

WOULD RESEMBLE ANCIENT MODELS.

THE ÜNEMPLOYMENT FİGÜURES CONTIİNUE TO DECLİNE

THANKS TO STATE-SUBSİDİZED CONSTRUCTİON PROJECTS,

WHICH CAUVSE EXPENDİTÜRE FOR ÜNEMPLOYMENT BENEFİTS TO BE CUT DOWN.

YET ALL SHOWCASE PROJECTS IN THE THİRD REİCH,

SUCH AS THE CONSTRUCTİON OF AUTOBAHNS, ARE FİNANCED BY THE FAST-GROWİNG NATIONAL DEBT.

THE FİRST COMPLETED AUTOBAHN SECTİON NEAR FRANKFURT

18 OPENED TO TRAFFİC BY THE FUEHRER HİMSELF.

IN THE FOLLOWİNG YEARS, TOO, HİTLER DOES NOT MISS THE OPPORTUNİTY

TO ATTEND SUCH CEREMONİIES İN PERSON.

FOR THE MEMBERS OF THE MASTER RACE THEMSELVES, HOWEVER,

THIS MEANS SOMETHİNG ENTİRELY DİFFERENT.

SO FOR PEOPLE WIİTH GERMAN BLOOD, BECAUSE THEY BELONG TO THE MASTER RACE,

THE SOCİAL DİFFERENCES ARE MUCH LESS PRONOUNCED.

THE GERMANS WERE CİTİZENS OF THE REİCH.

AND ALL OTHERS, ESPECİALLY THE JEWS

BUT ALSO POLES AND SO ON, WERE NOT GERMANS

AND CONSEOUENTLY NOT REİCH CİTİZENS.

THIS DİVİSİON BETWEEN GERMANS AND NON-GERMANS
