An accurate translation of Der Untergang's Hitler rant scene for German class.
00:00 - 00:03 | The enemy has broken through the front in broad formation. |
00:04 - 00:05 | In the south, the enemy has taken Zossen |
00:05 - 00:07 | and is pushing forward to Stahnsdorf. |
00:08 - 00:12 | The enemy is now operating on the northern outskirts between Frohnau and Pankow... |
00:12 - 00:15 | ...and in the east, the enemy has reached the Lichtenberg-Mahlsdorf-Karlshorst line. |
00:17 - 00:19 | With Steiner's attack, |
00:19 - 00:21 | everything will come into order. |
00:24 - 00:26 | My Leader... |
00:27 - 00:28 | Steiner... |
00:31 - 00:33 | Steiner could not mass sufficient forces for an attack. |
00:34 - 00:36 | Steiner's attack was not carried out. |
00:53 - 00:58 | These stay in the room: Keitel, Jodl, Krebs, and Burgdorf. |
01:13 - 01:15 | That was an order! |
01:15 - 01:17 | Steiner's attack was an order! |
01:18 - 01:23 | Who are you, that you would dare disobey my command!? |
01:25 - 01:28 | Has it really gotten to that point? |
01:29 - 01:31 | The military has lied to me! |
01:31 - 01:34 | Everyone has lied to me, even the SS! |
01:34 - 01:37 | The whole Generality is nothing but a heap |
01:37 - 01:40 | of despicable, faithless cowards! |
01:40 - 01:42 | My Leader, I can't tolerate, that the soldiers who bled for you... |
01:42 - 01:46 | Nothing but cowards, traitors, quitters! |
01:46 - 01:48 | My Leader, what you're saying is horrendous! |
01:48 - 01:52 | The generals are the scum of the German people! |
01:53 - 01:54 | They're without honor! |
01:56 - 01:57 | They call themselves generals because they just |
01:57 - 02:00 | waste a few years at the military academy |
02:00 - 02:03 | just to learn how to hold a knife and fork! |
02:04 - 02:08 | For years the military has only frustrated my campaign! |
02:08 - 02:13 | They've put only every imaginable obstacle in the way! |
02:14 - 02:16 | I would've done so well |
02:17 - 02:21 | to have killed off all the higher officers years ago, like Stalin! |
02:27 - 02:29 | I was never at an academy. |
02:30 - 02:34 | And yet I, alone, alone by myself, |
02:34 - 02:36 | have conquered all of Europe! |
02:41 - 02:42 | Bastards. |
02:43 - 02:47 | From the very beginning onward have I been so deceived and betrayed! |
02:48 - 02:53 | What a horrendous treachery has befallen the German people! |
02:54 - 02:56 | But all these bastards are going to pay. |
02:56 - 02:59 | With their own blood, they'll pay! |
03:00 - 03:02 | They will drown in their own blood! |
03:04 - 03:07 | Please, Gerda, calm yourself down. |
03:14 - 03:16 | My orders have been spoken into the wind. |
03:19 - 03:23 | It's impossible to lead in these circumstances. |
03:25 - 03:26 | It's over. |
03:31 - 03:33 | The war is lost. |
03:40 - 03:46 | But if you, gentlemen, think I'm therefore leaving Berlin, you err greatly. |
03:46 - 03:49 | I'd rather put a bullet in my head. |
03:53 - 03:56 | Do what you will. |
