I think it's more a tribute to the film than any sort of put-down. The scene
is incredibly evocative, even without speaking any German at all the
intensity just leaps off the screen.

This is Hitler, after all, arch villain of modern times, going completely
off the wall. Using all that mania seems perfectly logical.

And Ken - yes, I remember the Cowboys version. I'm not sure if it's the
first. There just has to be a web site that tracks these.

And I need to watch "Downfall" again. It's been too long. And, what the
heck, "Das Boat" as well. As a submariner it hit all the right buttons. It
was like an instructional video.
