Meet Hitler, the Bed-Wetting Drug Addict
Der Spiegel ^ | November 23, 2006 | David Crossland

German cinema breaks new ground in January with its first comedy about Hitler. Jewish director Dani Levy is following in the footsteps of Charlie Chaplin, maker of "The Great Dictator," with a decidedly unsympathetic portrayal of Hitler as a bed-wetting drug addict who is making the world suffer for his beatings as a child.

Hitler likes to play with his toy battleship in the bath, wets his bed, can't get an erection and is addicted to drugs he keeps in his giant globe, according to Germany's first comedy about the Führer, made by Jewish director Dani Levy.

Another scene shows an embarrassed looking Hitler lying on top of Eva Braun who says "I can't feel you Mein Führer."

At the end of the film, Hitler's barber accidentally shaves off half his little moustache, sending the dictator into a violent rage which causes him to lose his voice minutes before he is due to hold his speech. Grünbaum has to take over ...

Hitler is going to be really annoyed when he finds out about this.

I thought Hitler died or he is hanging out with Elvis?

"Don't take the final solution personally," Goebbels tells an emaciated Grünbaum as the professor arrives in the Chancellery...

Okay, that line is so appalling that I couldn't help but laugh.

This is one of the few Helge Schneider films he did not write and/or direct himself. His own films are unbelievably trashy (but I like em). For the last one, some cultural fond gave him some millions to make a real, professional movie. He spent a big part of the budget to hire some Jazz greats he had always wanted to play with (he's also a musician) and put them in the movie.

I'll lay odds that anything John Cleese did is funnier.

Perhaps der Fuhrer needs some more schnitzengruben.

This is sick, very black humor. In one respect, we must never forget the evil unleashed by this man, that 12 million people were sent to death camps just becuase Hitler didn't like them. On the other hand, to laugh at Hitler means that one refuses to take him seriously, or give credence to his lies. It's a fine line to walk.
Love the picture!

Have you seen the doc, High Hitler? His doc was literaly feeding him S*#%. I believe they called it mutafloren, made from the bacteria of peasant farmers. It was an attempted treatment for the high cellulose diet of a vegan. Very explosive diet if ya know whut I mean.

Especially since he hasn't slept since 1945

I wish they would make a movie about Amahblahblahjad like that, but that would take actual courage and vision....

Imagine that, a man who didn't eat meat and didn't smoke either. A vegan non-smoker.

That's two reasons a lot of people of our time should like the guy.

Why doesn't PETA honor this man?

Because he treated people like animals, while PETA is for treating animals like people?
