Eva Braun's private photos

Interesting to say the least ... I also enjoyed the photos of Hitler's bunker.

Thanks for the link. 🙂
 
There is a documentary that runs regularly here on Discovery's The Military Channel; it's all based on this album. Thanks a lot for posting this, outside of the aforementioned TV show, I've only ever seen her home movies.

Edit: It's called Secrets Of WWII: Hitler's Last Days.

Anyone who likes this should check out Der Untergang (Downfall). It's a very good movie about the last days of The Third Reich. Based mostly on one of A.H's secretaries Traudl Jung's account, it's supposedly very accurate and definitely does match up with most of the books I've read on the subject. Good acting, probably one of the best cinematic portrayals of Adolf Hitler although some may be uneasy with the gentle, almost heroic treatment it gives some SS figures who helped in the final defense of Berlin.
 
He obviously had some sort of indefinable charisma to lead a nation into the events of WWll ... it must have worked on women as well! 😛
 
A fabulous mustache goes quite a way in any situation.

(I hope that no one mistakes the attempts at levity as disrespect aimed at anyone other than A.H)
 
I hope this is not one of those trick threads to bring out Hitler fans out of the shadows...


Imo Hitler is an ugly caricature, a failed artist and a genocidal psychopath, thats all i have to say about him.
 
It wasn't a sucessful relationship.. she was suicidal for most of it, in large part due to his behavior towards her.

dames weren't lining up for Ike?

Are there a lot of trick Hitler threads on RFF? I'm new here.


I guess I'm naive in thinking that it goes without saying that I'm not a "Hitler fan". I would've been a prime target for Dachau for more than one reason.
 
Thanks for posting the link you have educated me.

A question - the 3rd photo of Eva's personal photos..the camera equipment on the ledge...Contax stuff???

Interesting that this thread comes up at the same time as another thread concerning those days...
