Good Morning, Mr. Hitler

About This Movie

So, 'Good Morning, Mr. Hitler' is this fascinating documentary that uses these newly found amateur color films from that 1939 festival in Munich. You get this almost surreal glimpse into a time right before all hell broke loose with WWII. The footage itself is a bit rough around the edges but that just adds to the rawness. It’s really interesting how the survivors reflect on their experiences, giving context to the visuals. The pacing feels almost leisurely, which contrasts sharply with the looming tension of history. You see the atmosphere of the event, the odd normalcy of it all, and then think about what was coming. It's a strange blend of innocence and foreboding that makes it unique.

Interesting for those studying pre-WWII Germany.Amateur footage adds an unusual perspective.Survivor testimonies create a haunting juxtaposition.
