I read "Mein Kampf" back in February, and I've been thinking since then: it would make a really chilling movie! If it just had a good script. And now it IS being made into a movie! If anything comes of it, you can expect me at the box office!

We have got to live, no matter how many skies have fallen.
The fact alone that it's straight-forwardly titled Mein Kampf is abound to raise controversy » free publicity » success.

This movie has nothing to do with the book or reality
shareworst german tongue film ever seen, cheesy and even in its tragic moment not funny. the end is crap²
shareIn a word: this is an allegory. If you don't understand that, then of course you think the movie is crap. There are many elements of Hitler's life that are realistic, there are also many forward reference to what will occur later. Gretchen is actually likely a reference to Geli Raubal (Hitler's niece and probably only love) ... that relationship took place in the late '20-s (Geli committed suicide (?) in 1931) and not during Hitler's Vienna years (1908-1913). Himmlischst is probably Himmler ("der treue Heinrich"). And so on.
In any case, the movie is not based on Hitler's Mein Kampf rather on the play by George Tabori ("freely after" as it says in the credits) of that title.
