Hitler: A Ascenção do Mal (2003)

1 - Episódio 1

After the end of the First World War, the soldier Hitler accepted the offer to infiltrate the German Workers Party. But the partys nationalism and anti-Semitism fit perfectly into his sick worldview. He stoked the fire of hatred with the mythical legends of a superior Aryan race. Hitler gained a foothold in politics and began to ruthlessly seize more and more power. When the flames consumed the Reichstag in 1933, democracy in Germany was also lost. Now Hitler could no longer be stopped.

After the attempted coup on November 9, 1923, Hitler (Robert Carlyle) served nine months in prison and wrote Mein Kampf. Once free again, he focused on legal political work. By 1932, his NSDAP was already the strongest faction in the Reichstag. In January 1933, Hitler was appointed Chancellor by President Hindenburg (Emmy nominee: Peter OToole). After Hitlers death on August 2, 1934, he finally achieved absolute power. Robert Carlyles brilliant interpretation of Hitler is in no way inferior to Bruno Ganzs.
