8/10
Hitler's propagandist.

Warning: Spoilers
Maybe the second most important man in Germany's Nazi regime. Joseph Goebbels comes to life through the narration of actor Kenneth Branagh reading from the pages in the diary kept my Hitler's spin doctor. Goebbels was definitely a radical socialist that was emphatically in adoration of Hitler and everything he represented. Working as the chief of propaganda and carrying out the inner most thoughts of the Nazi leader, Goebbles would come to prove to be unscrupulously cruel, egotistical and masterful in his work for the Third Reich. He was proud to be the man behind Hitler. Using the diaries as a main source along with historical footage from German archives, this film is a very fine chronicle of Goebble's life even as he reinvented himself from the initial attraction to the Nazi party up to his suicide near the end of World War II. Kudos to filmmakers Lutz Hachmeister and Michael Kloft for their dedication to this project.
