The Man Who Crossed Hitler (2011)
An underwhelming revisionist account of history
3 October 2018 - 5 out of 22 users found this review helpful.
This film is somewhat entertaining, but should certainly not be classified as "non-fiction." It is a propaganda film, not a historical film, and is fraught with countless inaccuracies and historical errors. For one thing, the time period is said to take place between 1930 and 1931, long before Hitler became Chancellor of Germany - and yet he is repeatedly referred to as "Der Fuhrer." Hitler was not referred to as Fuhrer until after 1934, when that became his official title as Chancellor and Head of State. And this was just in the first 5 minutes of the film. There is little reason to rehash all of the rest of the errors and historical inaccuracies.
