Mini-series "Hitler: The Devil's Ascent": actors and roles

In 2003, the premiere and the subsequent release on the wide screen of the Canadian film "Hitler: the ascent of the devil" took place. The actors in this film were chosen very well and, judging by the opinions of numerous critics, coped well with the tasks assigned to them. This is confirmed by the fact that the film received several prestigious awards and prizes for the performance of male roles. Also in 2004, the American Prize for casting workers for the best casting was given to the film "Hitler: The Devil's Ascent", the actors and roles in which are really matched perfectly.

A short story and the main idea of the film

This film can be attributed to the category of mini-series, since it consists of 2 parts, the duration of which is 2 hours. Judging by the name, it is obvious that the tape is filmed in the genre of autobiography and tells about the life path of the most odious man of the last century - Adolf Hitler. The personality of this person is very complex and it seems impossible to understand its nature.

The theme of Hitler's coming to power and the extermination of the people by nationality is painfully perceived by the world society to this day. A television film titled "Hitler: The Devil's Ascent" (the actors in which, of course, faced a very difficult task of playing odious historical figures, the attitude towards which is very ambiguous) shows the history of the Führer's rise from a small boy, a boy with maximalist views to a psychopathic nationalist and A tyrant politician. At the same time, the film shows the history of Germany at that time, the First and Second World Wars, the position of the political elite and ordinary people at the time.

The film "Hitler: The Devil's Ascent": actors and roles, the main character

The formation of the main character in this film is considered in great detail. Initially, Hitler appears before the viewer in the image of a 10-year-old boy. This hero lives with his mother and stepfather, whom he does not like too much. The mother is sure that her son has the ability to paint and sees in him a future artist. Stepfather, apparently, is not too fond of his arrogant stepchild, teaches his life and tries to educate. In many respects, because of this, after the death of his stepfather, little Adolf is not at all sad.

Adult Hitler in adolescence on the screen embodies a different actor - Simon Sullivan. He shows the image of a guy who is looking for his place in life. His hero fails in the way of becoming an artist. He applies to the Vienna Academy of Arts, but receives a refusal, because they believe that the guy does not have enough talent. It was during this period that Adolf is fond of anti-Semitic theories, which, it seems to him, help find the culprits in all his failures. Then he goes to the First World War, and Germany's loss becomes for him a real shock.

Reviews about the work of Robert Carlisle

In the film "Hitler: The Devil's Ascent" the actors were able to smoothly show the formation of Adolf's adult and established personality. It gradually ripens to the idea that the history of the German defeat must necessarily be rewritten and his country must rise above all others. Adult Hitler with all the complexities of his character is already playing the third actor - Robert Carlisle. Despite the fact that in the mini-series "Hitler: The Devil's Ascent" the actors coped with their roles without exception, it was the actor's work of Carlaine that the critics were praised with the most laudatory reviews.

Many people say that the actor did a great job in order to make his image look as realistic as possible. He studied the facial expressions, gestures and manner of speaking of the real prototype of his image. It was he who, one year after the release of the film on screens, in 2004, was nominated for the famous international award "Sputnik" for the best male role in the mini-series.

"Hitler: the devil's ascent": the film's actors

In addition to Adolf himself, in the film, of course, there are other, secondary characters, but their images are shown and played no less vividly. For example, actor Peter Otul was nominated for the "Amy" award in the category "Best Supporting Actor".

In the film, he performed magnificently the role of Paul von Hindenburg. His character is the president and it was from his submission in 1933 that Hitler became chancellor.

Performers of female roles

Naturally, in the film, in addition to male roles, there are also women's roles. The role of Adolphe's mother, Clara, was performed by American actress Stockard Channing. Very interesting was the image of Helen - the wife of General Erich Ludendorff. According to the plot, Hitler was often included in the general's house and began to feed warm feelings to his wife. A little later, when Adolph attempted suicide, it was Helen who saved his life.

Interesting and very profound was the image of Eva Braun - the world-famous beloved of Hitler.

In the film, her inner feelings, her love for the Fuhrer and her inability to endure her fate to the end are well illustrated. The role of this woman in the film was perfectly played by Zoe Telford.
