Why wasn't Goering's morphine withdrawal depicted?
It happened while he was incarcerated and it seems that it would have made a very interesting part of the movie, especially since it was true.
"Fredo, you're nothing to me now."

That indeed would have been interesting. Apparently, after getting weaned off morphine, he lost about 30 lbs. and regained a lot of his mental faculties. Speer remarked in his memoirs that they could have used this renewed mental acuity to end the war a lot earlier, before it became such a monumental defeat for Germany. They were losing anyway. Hitler, however, did not care about this.
