the assassination of the Fuhrer .

Here are the soldiers who stand ready to

30
00:04:00,261 --> 00:04:03,981
They are equipped

31
00:04:03,981 --> 00:04:07,701
And here is
their very combat experienced leaders.

Do what you want , as long as you delay
invasion by a week.
36
00:04:25,541 --> 00:04:29,021
- Fuehrer's adjutant is here.
- Thank you, Aldinger .
37
00:04:29,021 --> 00:04:35,221
I need your support. High German
officers that the Russians captured -
38
00:04:35,221 --> 00:04:40,501
- Have sent letters to officers
and urged them to stop the war.
39
00:04:40,501 --> 00:04:43,501
They're dictated by Stalin himself .
40
00:04:43,501 --> 00:04:48,301
Unfortunately not. There is clear evidence
that the letters are not forged.
41
00:04:48,301 --> 00:04:53,221
- Do you also have one?
- No. And then I ripped it .
42
00:04:53,221 --> 00:04:57,621
Now that the war escalates ,
Fuhrer must know with certainty -
43
00:04:57,621 --> 00:05:02,581
- That there is a one-off
and that the field marshal is loyal .
44
00:05:02,581 --> 00:05:06,261
- The Führer knows I am loyal .
- Hostile flight !
45
00:05:06,261 --> 00:05:09,101
Give me , Aldinger .
46
00:05:09,981 --> 00:05:14,461
They have not seen us yet.
- Daniel , try to reach the forest.
47
00:05:16,021 --> 00:05:20,421
- They face . They 've found us !
- Maybe you should sit down .
48
00:05:20,421 --> 00:05:24,461
Gasa . Faster.
- Where do you see the problems we have here.
49
00:05:24,461 --> 00:05:28,861
Not a German plane in sight.
The allies chasing us like hares.
50
00:05:38,541 --> 00:05:40,541
Stop!
51
00:05:40,541 --> 00:05:44,141
In here. Fort . - This Way . In there .
52
00:05:44,141 --> 00:05:46,581
Do not, you still can not hit .
53
00:05:47,621 --> 00:05:51,741
In there . Quick!
54
00:05:51,741 --> 00:05:54,181
Shit !
55
00:05:58,661 --> 00:06:00,701
Survived all ?
56
00:06:06,901 --> 00:06:10,541
" On all soldiers
and officers' behalf " -
57
00:06:10,541 --> 00:06:16,821
- " We declare our allegiance
to the Führer and National Socialism. "
58
00:06:16,821 --> 00:06:21,621
"Therefore , we promise to do all we can
for every soldier " -
59
00:06:21,621 --> 00:06:27,261
- " To fight even more intense
of National Socialism 's future. "
60
00:06:27,261 --> 00:06:31,061
" Berchtesgarden , March 15, 1944 ".
61
00:06:44,661 --> 00:06:49,581
My adjutant was very impressed
of his visit to the Atlantic Wall .
62
00:06:49,581 --> 00:06:52,901
I look forward to your progress .
63
00:06:52,901 --> 00:06:56,701
This was two weeks ago
off Plymouth .
64
00:06:56,701 --> 00:07:00,021
The enemy appears prepare
a landing .
65
00:07:00,021 --> 00:07:05,181
They also gather force
English Channel. At least 50 divisions.
66
00:07:05,181 --> 00:07:09,301
- They will then in a few weeks .
- About they come.
67
00:07:09,301 --> 00:07:12,101
They have practiced this before .
68
00:07:12,101 --> 00:07:16,821
It 's obvious that the Allies
must come west.
69
00:07:16,821 --> 00:07:20,501
I 'm really looking forward
their departure .
70
00:07:26,941 --> 00:07:30,461
What do you think?
Where will they try ?
71
00:07:30,461 --> 00:07:35,741
They are probably trying here , in Calais.
Or in Normandy.
72
00:07:35,741 --> 00:07:41,221
The two peninsulas offer
excellent opportunities for bridgeheads .
73
00:07:41,221 --> 00:07:44,181
How the enemy will act?
74
00:07:44,181 --> 00:07:47,061
First they bombarded our positions.
75
00:07:47,061 --> 00:07:53,741
Then attack boats
and armored landing vehicles -
76
00:07:53,741 --> 00:08:00,661
- Under the cover of artillery and bombers .
Airborne troops placed behind the front.
77
00:08:00,661 --> 00:08:03,341
What is your counter-move ?
78
00:08:03,341 --> 00:08:08,901
The enemy will be killed at the landing .
The beach is the battle line .
79
00:08:08,901 --> 00:08:15,501
Empty talk , Mr. Rommel . How defends
to an over 2,000 km of coastline ?
80
00:08:15,501 --> 00:08:17,541
We miss forces.
81
00:08:17,541 --> 00:08:24,141
We place all armored divisions
to the coast. I 'll show you.
82
00:08:25,181 --> 00:08:30,101
Within three months , it looks like this
everywhere on the Atlantic Wall .
83
00:08:30,101 --> 00:08:33,541
Barriers hinder
for landing boats.
84
00:08:33,541 --> 00:08:37,541
Artillery shells them
directly at the landing .
85
00:08:37,541 --> 00:08:42,941
And we have no artillery in place,
taking armor units over .
86
00:08:42,941 --> 00:08:49,501
If the enemy breaks through at one point
on fältmarskalkens defense line
87
00:08:49,501 --> 00:08:52,061
- Empire is defenseless .
88
00:08:52,061 --> 00:08:58,581
When the Allies marching to Berlin.
Our tanks can only follow.
89
00:08:58,581 --> 00:09:04,821
Our tanks kill all enemies
who disembarked in 48 hours.
90
00:09:04,821 --> 00:09:10,821
Before the tanks get there , it has
enemy plane bombed them apart .
91
00:09:11,981 --> 00:09:17,821
Mein Führer ... I ask you to give me
command of armored forces .
92
00:09:17,821 --> 00:09:21,381
Only then can we prevent
enemy invasion.
93
00:09:22,421 --> 00:09:26,501
Then we put everything on one card .
Without strategic reserves .
94
00:09:26,501 --> 00:09:29,821
As commander in chief in the West
I allow it .
95
00:09:29,821 --> 00:09:34,541
But for three years, have you allowed
Atlantic Wall to be inadequate.
96
00:09:34,541 --> 00:09:39,581
While Rommel short time
has done exemplary work .
97
00:09:39,581 --> 00:09:43,621
An invasion must be strictly avoided.
For one thing is certain :
98
00:09:43,621 --> 00:09:48,421
If the landing fails,
do not they try again .
99
00:09:48,421 --> 00:09:52,501
Then we can redirect forces
where we need them - in the East.
100
00:09:52,501 --> 00:09:55,141
All 45 divisions.
101
00:09:57,741 --> 00:10:02,181
war output
depends on you and your soldiers.
102
00:10:02,181 --> 00:10:05,781
And even Reich
and the fate of the nation .
103
00:10:05,781 --> 00:10:10,821
- Do you realize that, Field Marshal ?
- Yes, my Führer .
104
00:10:10,821 --> 00:10:16,381
Can you at least wait
at Manfred ? He will be disappointed.
105
00:10:16,381 --> 00:10:21,941
Tell him . We have very little time before
the enemy is coming, and much to do.
106
00:10:21,941 --> 00:10:24,341
- You can do it .
- I must.
107
00:10:24,341 --> 00:10:27,941
Fuhrer expects
I save the kingdom .
108
00:10:27,941 --> 00:10:30,461
How nice that he trusts you again .

00:10:44,421 --> 00:10:48,461
There you are .
We were expecting you earlier , General.
112
00:10:48,461 --> 00:10:51,781
We were chased by enemy aircraft .
113
00:10:51,781 --> 00:10:57,901
Their superiority in the air is our largest
problems . My adjutant , Captain Aldinger .
114
00:10:57,901 --> 00:11:02,181
Take the general's baggage .
- You will get to meet my staff , Speidel .
115
00:11:02,181 --> 00:11:07,461
- How's the cheese ?
- The Russian offensive can not be stopped.
116
00:11:07,461 --> 00:11:10,181
Führer's orders are catastrophic .
117
00:11:10,181 --> 00:11:14,301
They give unnecessary coincident ,
and prevents the front moved.
118
00:11:14,301 --> 00:11:18,781
- Move the front?
- For Reich boundaries, if possible.
119
00:11:18,781 --> 00:11:23,141
Then do not negotiate the enemy with us.
Would you like to be humiliated ?
120
00:11:23,141 --> 00:11:26,461
- No.
- We will prevent the invasion.
121
00:11:26,461 --> 00:11:30,661
Only then may the Führer
a strong bargaining position .
122
00:11:32,541 --> 00:11:38,301
Gentlemen,
our new Chief of Staff , General Speidel .
123
00:11:38,301 --> 00:11:40,221
Nice .
124
00:11:40,221 --> 00:11:44,741
Countess La Rochefoucauld ,
Castle owner's nephew .
125
00:11:44,741 --> 00:11:48,381
- Bonjour.
- Comtesse , bonjour .
126
00:11:48,381 --> 00:11:52,181
She speaks excellent German.
She interprets for us.
127
00:11:53,221 --> 00:11:56,981
- Er famous ancestor , the author ?
- Yes.
128
00:11:56,981 --> 00:11:59,941
" La jeunesse
est une Ivresse continuelle . " < / i >
129
00:11:59,941 --> 00:12:02,501
"C'est la fièvre de la raison . "
130
00:12:02,501 --> 00:12:06,301
- It was well he ?
- Yes.
131
00:12:07,661 --> 00:12:14,941
Youth is a continual intoxication.
The reason is fever.
132
00:12:15,981 --> 00:12:21,421
Who did you mean , Speidel ? There's
just a youth here , Countess.
133
00:12:22,581 --> 00:12:27,541
- It happened just like that.
- The Countess knows what is proper .
134
00:12:27,541 --> 00:12:30,941
- Are you sure?
- Are not you ?
135
00:12:31,701 --> 00:12:35,981
- Messieurs , good evening .
- Bonsoir .
136
00:12:40,581 --> 00:12:45,261
It easily becomes a villain .
Not true Speidel ?
137
00:12:47,581 --> 00:12:53,341
Here at Calvados Coast
we still have a gap of 40 kilometers.
138
00:12:53,341 --> 00:12:57,581
If the tanks will not
it looks dark.
139
00:12:57,581 --> 00:13:03,101
The Führer has promised to curb units
will . You get your tanks.
140
00:13:04,141 --> 00:13:08,461
We must move obstacles ahead ,
Marcks .
141
00:13:08,461 --> 00:13:12,261
The Allies
practice landing at low tide now.
142
00:13:12,261 --> 00:13:16,701
So it looks . But we 'll give them
long way to the beach.
143
00:13:16,701 --> 00:13:21,581
How ? I can not tire out the men
with pick and shovel .
144
00:13:21,581 --> 00:13:24,781
I have rested soldiers.
145
00:13:24,781 --> 00:13:30,301
That's the problem . Your men are too
rested after three years of beach vacations.
146
00:13:30,301 --> 00:13:35,541
See the doctor Speidel . He was
on the eastern front , but he laments ?
147
00:13:35,541 --> 00:13:39,141
I lost my leg on the eastern front.
148
00:13:39,141 --> 00:13:42,341
And with all due respect , I tell you :
149
00:13:42,341 --> 00:13:46,901
Your plan requires a minimum of one year.
Anyone who says otherwise ...
150
00:13:46,901 --> 00:13:51,661
- ... Hide the truth or does not know.
- What do you imagine ?
151
00:13:51,661 --> 00:13:56,821
The Führer has given me orders to
prevent the Allied landing .
152
00:13:56,821 --> 00:14:00,861
And a slacker like you
should not hinder me.
153
00:14:00,861 --> 00:14:03,701
Now make sure to get the job done.
154
00:14:05,501 --> 00:14:07,661
Yes.
155
00:14:11,741 --> 00:14:17,261
Maybe it was a little rough , but otherwise
nothing happens here , believe me.
156
00:14:17,261 --> 00:14:19,941
Wait, Marcks .
157
00:14:20,541 --> 00:14:26,941
- He knows Marcks is absolutely right.
- Your men have been frequent . Sorry.

It has happened to some here , Hans.
161
00:14:53,581 --> 00:15:00,821
Paris Jews was sent to the East,
but traffic continues ...
162
00:15:02,261 --> 00:15:07,221
And SS chasing even Jewish children ,
that residents are hiding .
163
00:15:10,021 --> 00:15:13,261
The local SS last idea.
164
00:15:13,261 --> 00:15:18,861
Resistance bomb stations and
then exploded even wagons are doors .
165
00:15:18,861 --> 00:15:23,701
Some Jews fled. To prevent
there transported the now bare.
166

Come on .

Colonel Hofacker ,
Count Stauffenberg's cousin.
168
00:15:44,181 --> 00:15:46,021
- General.
- Nice to meet you .
169
00:15:46,021 --> 00:15:51,301
Berlin would finally act.
Therefore, they asked me to trust myself to you .
170
00:15:51,301 --> 00:15:55,101
- It's about Rommel .
- Rommel ?
171
00:15:55,101 --> 00:15:59,301
Can he convince
to participate in kupplanerna ?
172
00:16:00,621 --> 00:16:05,861
He will do anything to succeed in the West.
He wants to prevent the invasion.
173
00:16:05,861 --> 00:16:10,301
Convince him. Is Rommel with ,
we get the support of the front.
174
00:16:10,301 --> 00:16:14,741
And of the people. Do not forget
he is our most popular general .
175
00:16:18,221 --> 00:16:23,741
A major step : from Fuhrer minion
the figurehead of the coup.
176
00:16:23,741 --> 00:16:27,221
- But the only thing possible .
- I must see him.
177
00:16:27,221 --> 00:16:32,181
Preferably without the Gestapo know .
Can you arrange that?
178
00:16:37,461 --> 00:16:41,181
Rommel HEADQUARTERS
April 28, 1944
179
00:17:02,381 --> 00:17:07,621
- Guderian decides on the tanks .
- Not Führer ?
180
00:17:07,621 --> 00:17:14,461
Führer asked me to inspect them and
submit recommendation. What do you think ?
181
00:17:14,461 --> 00:17:19,421
It should be the second Panzer division ,
Geyr . Yet is this .
182
00:17:21,181 --> 00:17:27,181
The enemy disembark quickly airborne
divisions with anti-tank guns .
183
00:17:27,181 --> 00:17:33,621
That's why the tanks no avail
the coast, with the enemy in the back.
184
00:17:33,621 --> 00:17:39,821
The enemy does your tanks to reach
coast and can build their beachhead .
185
00:17:45,781 --> 00:17:50,461
How do you protect our tanks
from their sjöartilleri ?
186
00:17:50,461 --> 00:17:53,061
We bury them.
187
00:17:54,501 --> 00:17:57,221
- Bury them?
- Yes.
188
00:17:57,221 --> 00:18:04,261
Is not their strength in combination
of armor , firepower and mobility?
189
00:18:05,101 --> 00:18:11,421
During the campaign against France was traveling
s spökdivision not fast enough.
190
00:18:12,621 --> 00:18:16,581
Führer has expressly approved
my plans.
191
00:18:16,581 --> 00:18:18,861
He has not decided yet.
192
00:18:18,861 --> 00:18:23,741
Until then reads armored divisions
under the Commander in the West.
193
00:18:25,741 --> 00:18:28,421
Then we can end this now.
194
00:18:36,981 --> 00:18:41,701
It did not go well in Africa.
Now he wants to be something here.
195
00:18:41,701 --> 00:18:44,101
Get him to see reason .
196
00:18:44,101 --> 00:18:50,301
He can not prevent an attack
with infantry hiding behind tanks.
197
00:18:50,301 --> 00:18:53,861
- Field Marshal knows what he's doing.
- Really?
198
00:18:53,861 --> 00:18:58,981
Actually , he has never been more
than a viable division commander .
199
00:19:13,141 --> 00:19:17,861
So it is with the Führer. The last
who meets him is always right.
200
00:19:17,861 --> 00:19:20,421
Let's go a round , Speidel .
201
00:19:22,261 --> 00:19:26,621
Rundstedt is old and tired.
He gave up a long time ago .
202
00:19:26,621 --> 00:19:29,861
And Guderian has been a yes men .
203
00:19:30,901 --> 00:19:33,501
Take the consequences.
204
00:19:34,661 --> 00:19:38,221
- Take matters into your own hands.
- What do you mean?
205
00:19:41,661 --> 00:19:46,181
Request to be commander in chief in the West.
Give Hitler an ultimatum .
206
00:19:46,181 --> 00:19:51,181
- He needs you. You are well-liked.
- Should I threaten Führer ?
207
00:19:51,181 --> 00:19:56,501
- If you want to prevent the invasion.
- So, you achieve nothing with the Führer.
208
00:19:56,501 --> 00:20:00,861
Less you , recognize the people and the Fuhrer
that the war can not be won .
209
00:20:00,861 --> 00:20:06,461
Quiet, Speidel . I want you here
as chief of staff a while.
210
00:20:08,421 --> 00:20:12,901
- What liberally to let them stay here.
- Thoughtless , you mean ?
211
00:20:12,901 --> 00:20:17,301
The French aristocracy
fear the Bolsheviks more than we do.
212
00:20:17,301 --> 00:20:21,381
Count worship the Fuhrer .
That kid man is his son.
213
00:20:23,061 --> 00:20:25,821
As old as our Manfred.
214
00:20:25,821 --> 00:20:28,941
Our son is air defense aide in Ulm.
215
00:20:28,941 --> 00:20:32,821
Recently , he wanted to join the Waffen- SS.
216
00:20:32,821 --> 00:20:36,261
I forbade him to do so.
217
00:20:36,261 --> 00:20:39,821
Now you may ask , but ...
218
00:20:39,821 --> 00:20:44,421
You know, I 've heard
terrible stories .
219
00:20:44,421 --> 00:20:50,741
If the mass executions . and massacres
of Jews in the occupied territories .
220
00:20:50,741 --> 00:20:55,101
You were on the eastern front .
Can you confirm this?
221
00:20:55,101 --> 00:20:59,661
It also takes place in France.
They yet deporting Jews.
222
00:20:59,661 --> 00:21:04,381
SS searching through
for hidden Jewish children .
223
00:21:05,421 --> 00:21:08,941
- How do you know?
- In Paris, army management , there ...
224
00:21:08,941 --> 00:21:11,381
... those who do not find themselves in it .
225
00:21:13,221 --> 00:21:18,621
So yeah ... You have to get used to the lightning
and thunder to be a soldier .
226
00:21:18,621 --> 00:21:22,741
Our Manfred cried too
when he was photographed .
227
00:21:22,741 --> 00:21:29,541
Stülpnagel . Speidel cheated well not here
me to calm screaming babies?
228
00:21:29,541 --> 00:21:31,261
A MANSION NEAR PARIS
14 MAJ 1944
229
00:21:31,261 --> 00:21:37,221
In case of extreme emergency must
forcing Hitler to yield.
230
00:21:37,221 --> 00:21:41,861
- What do you mean by "force" ?
- To arrest him .
231
00:21:41,861 --> 00:21:47,461
And bring him to justice for
the crimes he has committed in the name of the people .
232
00:21:47,461 --> 00:21:51,381
Mr von Stülpnagel ,
what you are proposing is a military coup.
233
00:21:51,381 --> 00:21:56,181
Do you think you can find a single general
ready for that?
234
00:21:56,181 --> 00:22:01,181
A group of prominent men
at our disposal .
235
00:22:01,181 --> 00:22:04,621
There have been coup plans
even earlier.
236
00:22:04,621 --> 00:22:08,701
Some yielded their
to liberate Germany from Hitler.
237
00:22:08,701 --> 00:22:11,061
Daring to their lives ?
238
00:22:12,661 --> 00:22:16,861
- An attack , then?
- Not if it can be avoided .
239
00:22:20,341 --> 00:22:22,941
Know all about it?
240
00:22:22,941 --> 00:22:26,981
- Only in Berlin , the details .
- It is high treason.
241
00:22:26,981 --> 00:22:29,981
Hitler betray long Germany.
242
00:22:29,981 --> 00:22:36,101
Closes we are not at peace with the Allies
Now , the Russians take Berlin in the autumn.
243
00:22:37,141 --> 00:22:40,741
Although you have sworn an oath .
Do not forget it .
244
00:22:51,541 --> 00:22:54,461
Now he runs to the Führer .
245
00:23:20,301 --> 00:23:23,941
How long have you known
these plans ?
246
00:23:23,941 --> 00:23:26,421
A while.
247
00:23:26,421 --> 00:23:30,381
You know what is required of me
the obedient soldier.
248
00:23:31,421 --> 00:23:34,061
Do what you must do.
249
00:23:39,541 --> 00:23:42,141
Damn it .
250
00:23:47,101 --> 00:23:50,181
Give it here . It can be mended .
251
00:23:56,901 --> 00:24:01,021
FRANCE , THE CHANNEL COAST
20 MAJ 1944
252
00:24:37,701 --> 00:24:39,661

253
00:24:52,701 --> 00:24:57,661
Watch out ! They come, they come !
Here we go ! It begins!
254
00:25:10,701 --> 00:25:12,581
Miss. Damn, then.
255
00:25:16,021 --> 00:25:19,101
Speidel , dammit . What is happening?
256
00:25:19,101 --> 00:25:21,901
Have Englishmen landed ?
257
00:25:21,901 --> 00:25:27,541
- A British raid averted near Calais .
- On the Channel coast ?
258
00:25:27,541 --> 00:25:32,261
A British military officers were arrested.
He was handed over to the Gestapo.
259
00:25:32,261 --> 00:25:35,861
- In Paris ?
- You can be the chain of command.
260
00:25:54,181 --> 00:25:57,901
SS HEADQUARTERS IN PARIS
21 MAJ 1944
261
00:26:04,101 --> 00:26:07,501
His squad
would blow up coastal battery.
262
00:26:07,501 --> 00:26:11,501
Good, Lieutenant General .
We'll take him.
263
00:26:11,501 --> 00:26:14,581
- What ?
- Rommel want to meet him.

You can command the order. he

265
00:26:21,421 --> 00:26:25,461
- He certainly has not spoken yet.
- Within 12 hours , you know ...
266
00:26:25,461 --> 00:26:31,301
- ... Where and when the invasion occurs.
- Certainly. But we have our methods.
267
00:26:32,621 --> 00:26:36,341
You tell enough for me
if your methods sometime.
268
00:26:36,341 --> 00:26:39,181
Feel it . - Take him away .
269
00:26:57,261 --> 00:26:59,061

- Here is the British lieutenant .
- Take off his handcuffs .
271
00:27:14,181 --> 00:27:18,301
How is my old friend Montgomery?
- Translate .

00:27:18,301 --> 00:27:22,741
- He understands you.
- How the Brits want war now?
273
00:27:22,741 --> 00:27:28,061
- And what was there in Africa?
- Tjafs . Compared to what awaits .
274
00:27:29,021 --> 00:27:32,061
Have a seat .
275
00:27:39,581 --> 00:27:42,581
Well , Lieutenant ...
276
00:27:45,101 --> 00:27:48,701
Actually , we have the same enemy .
277
00:27:48,701 --> 00:27:51,101
And he 's in Russia.
278
00:27:52,101 --> 00:27:56,701
- Why do we fight not side by side?
- It would be hard .
279
00:27:56,701 --> 00:28:01,901
We Brits think that certain things
you Germans do, is disgusting.
280
00:28:01,901 --> 00:28:05,821
- What do you mean?
- The way you treat Jews .
281
00:28:05,821 --> 00:28:11,061
It's politics. We are soldiers.
We have nothing to do with politics .
282
00:28:12,101 --> 00:28:16,621
That your Führer exterminate an entire people ,
is it just politics?
283
00:28:23,221 --> 00:28:27,661
- It could change.
- It's too late , Field Marshal .
284
00:28:47,061 --> 00:28:50,501
- Countess .
- What will happen to him ?
285
00:28:50,501 --> 00:28:54,141
He's way in war camps
for British prisoners.
286
00:28:54,141 --> 00:28:57,341
And command the order, then?
287
00:28:57,341 --> 00:29:01,301
- What do you know about it?
- You hear a lot.
288
00:29:01,301 --> 00:29:05,301
- I'll make sure nothing happens to him .
- But can you do it?
289
00:29:05,301 --> 00:29:11,541
- Yes , I'm the commander in chief .
- There are many in France.
290
00:29:11,541 --> 00:29:14,221
And then there's the SS.
291
00:29:17,861 --> 00:29:21,021
Countess . Wait a minute.
292
00:29:34,821 --> 00:29:41,221
Excuse me ... but can you get hold of
those here in Paris?
293
00:29:41,221 --> 00:29:45,501
- For my wife's birthday.
- You have good taste.
294
00:29:46,541 --> 00:29:50,301
S uncle hope
that we can beat back the enemy.
295
00:29:50,301 --> 00:29:52,461
What do you hope ?
296
00:29:54,301 --> 00:29:57,941
- Who are you ?
- We are lost , whatever.
297
00:30:02,701 --> 00:30:06,941
Given our fortifications,
morale of the troops -
298
00:30:06,941 --> 00:30:11,061
- Our new armament
and the weapons we have been given -
299
00:30:11,061 --> 00:30:15,061
- We look forward to coming times
with great calm .
300
00:30:15,061 --> 00:30:17,021
And ...
301
00:30:18,061 --> 00:30:22,381
... do not worry
about how it should go. It's fine .
302
00:30:22,381 --> 00:30:27,301
And I do not
that the British are returning for a second time .
303
00:30:28,981 --> 00:30:32,581
- Was it good?
- Excellent . Very convincing.
304
00:30:32,581 --> 00:30:35,541
Good .
305
00:30:35,541 --> 00:30:40,421
I heard that a British soldier
was captured in Calais.
306
00:30:40,421 --> 00:30:46,181
- Do you believe that the invasion happens there ?
- The place where you least expect it .
307
00:30:46,181 --> 00:30:48,421
Then they learn to come to me .
308
00:30:48,421 --> 00:30:54,461
They go to church on Sunday , will set sail
on Monday and will be here on Tuesday.
309
00:30:54,461 --> 00:30:58,581
- Why do you think that?
- My birthday is on Tuesday.
310
00:30:58,581 --> 00:31:01,741
- My wife too.
- There you are .
311
00:31:01,741 --> 00:31:05,541
From the high command ,
Colonel General Jodl .
312
00:31:10,941 --> 00:31:13,741
- Hell .
- Bad news ?
313
00:31:25,101 --> 00:31:31,221
Führer gives me three armored divisions .
The rest I ask later.
314
00:31:31,221 --> 00:31:37,301
Should I send a written request
when the enemy lands ?
315
00:31:37,301 --> 00:31:39,501
I have to meet Hitler.
316
00:31:39,501 --> 00:31:44,301
He gets misinformation
of the bad guys around him.
317
00:31:44,301 --> 00:31:48,501
- Do you really believe that?
- You and your friends do not believe it .
318
00:31:48,501 --> 00:31:53,261
But what do you expect ?
That I passively watching the chaos ?
319
00:31:53,261 --> 00:31:59,061
I do not remember as commander
who led his soldiers to slaughter.
320
00:31:59,061 --> 00:32:03,341
- There are other options .
- I do not believe in them.
321
00:32:04,221 --> 00:32:09,661
Put me through to the Führer's headquarters.
The Fuehrer 's adjutant . I can not wait.
322
00:32:12,381 --> 00:32:16,861
Do you like shoes?
A birthday present for my wife.
323
00:32:16,861 --> 00:32:19,741
Very elegant . She'll be happy enough.
324
00:32:19,741 --> 00:32:24,501
It will be storm and very cloudy
until 10 June.
325
00:32:24,501 --> 00:32:27,141
So you can safely go .
326
00:32:28,781 --> 00:32:32,781
- A good trip.
- Keep track of everything here.
327
00:32:32,781 --> 00:32:36,621
- Monsieur , le comte .
- Pour votre épouse . < / I >
328
00:32:37,181 --> 00:32:41,341

329
00:32:41,341 --> 00:32:45,101
- Au revoir .
- Au revoir .
330
00:32:51,501 --> 00:32:57,661
One thing is certain . invasion set
enemy facing a crushing down ...
331
00:33:08,901 --> 00:33:11,741
There you are , Manfred.
332
00:33:13,221 --> 00:33:16,661
- Good day , Father.
- Good day , my son.
333
00:33:16,661 --> 00:33:20,261
- You look good in uniform.
- Can I still take it ?
334
00:33:20,261 --> 00:33:25,101
He must be back tonight .
He got permission , but did not .
335
00:33:26,661 --> 00:33:32,381
Very good . I'm proud of you.
Go to your room, we'll see you later.
336
00:33:35,821 --> 00:33:39,701
He is sorry that you were against
he joined the Waffen- SS.
337
00:33:39,701 --> 00:33:42,541
I have not changed my mind .
338
00:33:44,581 --> 00:33:46,981
I'm glad you could come.
339
00:33:46,981 --> 00:33:50,301
I'm going to the Führer .
Problems in France.
340
00:33:50,301 --> 00:33:53,461
Put yourself . You seem a little irritable.
341
00:33:58,941 --> 00:34:05,061
Lu, do you remember where
as Strölin recently told ?
342
00:34:05,741 --> 00:34:10,221
- That the gas kill Jews in the East?
- Please stop .
343
00:34:10,221 --> 00:34:14,141
Strölin a Nazi
and Lord Mayor of Stuttgart.
344
00:34:14,141 --> 00:34:18,541
Although he has sent Jews to the East.
Why does he say so ?
345
00:34:18,541 --> 00:34:22,541
It happens even in France,
before my eyes .
346
00:34:24,981 --> 00:34:27,901
I thought there were isolated cases.
347
00:34:29,821 --> 00:34:32,861
But those at the top are not decent .
348
00:34:33,901 --> 00:34:36,661
What do you mean by "those at the top" ?
349
00:34:42,421 --> 00:34:46,581
You know where we live ,
what was here before.
350
00:34:46,581 --> 00:34:49,061
Yes.
351
00:34:49,061 --> 00:34:54,541
- A jew boarding school.
- Then we should move.
352
00:34:55,581 --> 00:34:57,221
Do not believe that.
353
00:34:58,461 --> 00:35:03,261
We are not preventing him from speaking
in radio , he gets to the masses .
354
00:35:03,261 --> 00:35:06,541
We must be
as eloquent as Hitler.
355
00:35:06,541 --> 00:35:11,341
Are we not,
it does not help with an attack .
356
00:35:14,221 --> 00:35:17,941
- Yes, Colonel ?
- A radio monitors ...
357
00:35:17,941 --> 00:35:20,861
perceived ... the end of the message.
358
00:35:20,861 --> 00:35:26,741
Colonel General von Salmuth has set
the whole army on alert in Calais.
359
00:35:26,741 --> 00:35:29,421
Should I alert the seventh in Normandy ?
360
00:35:29,421 --> 00:35:33,181
Call Rundstedts staff .
Let them decide.
361
00:35:37,501 --> 00:35:40,261
So here we go ...
362
00:35:40,261 --> 00:35:43,341
It's probably just the usual hysteria .
363
00:35:43,341 --> 00:35:47,421
NORMANDY
6 JUNI 1944 , 01:00
364
00:35:48,621 --> 00:35:51,541
There they are. I knew it.
365
00:35:53,421 --> 00:35:57,021
Notify Rommel's staff
it starts now.
366
00:36:11,901 --> 00:36:16,141
- What is the situation in Calais ?
- The country set there too.
367
00:36:16,141 --> 00:36:21,941
With cargo glider . The two prisoners
there will be more land subsidence .
368
00:36:21,941 --> 00:36:25,101
We can send 21 to Normandy.
369
00:36:27,421 --> 00:36:32,941
Commander of the 21st unresponsive.
He is in Paris with his chief of staff.
370
00:36:32,941 --> 00:36:36,421
- What ?
- General Speidel . Phone .
371
00:36:38,821 --> 00:36:41,021
Yes ?
372
00:36:42,061 --> 00:36:47,221
Roger that. Very good . Thank you.
And happy birthday , sir.
373
00:36:48,261 --> 00:36:52,781
It was Marcks .
The British are attacking with straw dolls.
374
00:36:53,821 --> 00:36:58,221
But he thinks he can handle it
on their own.
375
00:37:00,341 --> 00:37:05,101
- What do we do now ?
- Yes, what? We go to bed.
376
00:37:07,301 --> 00:37:12,941
Normandy, 06:00
377
00:37:12,941 --> 00:37:17,901
ONLY ON THE LIGHT OF WINDOW
AND DOORS ARE CLOSED
378

OMAHA BEACH
NORMANDY , 06:30

00:38:13,781 --> 00:38:18,021
Rommel HOME
In MEN LINGEN , 09:00
382
00:38:27,821 --> 00:38:32,621
Armed Forces ordered me to deliver
these flowers to your wife.
383
00:38:32,621 --> 00:38:36,141
With heartfelt congratulations
from Führer .
384
00:38:45,861 --> 00:38:50,021
Take good care of them , Karolina .
They are from the Führer.
385
00:38:54,101 --> 00:38:58,141
Commander Loistl , Army Group B.
386
00:38:58,141 --> 00:39:01,141
Sure . Just a moment .
387
00:39:07,821 --> 00:39:11,421
You have a telephone, Field Marshal .
388
00:39:11,421 --> 00:39:14,661
It must be Fuhrer headquarters.
389
00:39:20,141 --> 00:39:24,261
Yes ? Speidel ? What gives?
390
00:39:24,261 --> 00:39:28,581
Have they landed ? Where?
How does our counterattack ?
391
00:39:29,621 --> 00:39:34,661
Let division attack directly .
Do not wait for reinforcements. Seizures.
392
00:39:49,701 --> 00:39:53,381
- I'm sorry.
- It can not be helped.
393
00:39:53,381 --> 00:39:57,181
- Now, in all cases the waiting over .
- Yes.
394
00:39:59,461 --> 00:40:02,781
Take care, Lu . Take care.
395
00:40:29,781 --> 00:40:32,301
They do not fit , Karolina .
396
00:40:32,901 --> 00:40:36,421
Rommel HEADQUARTERS ,
22:30
397
00:40:46,741 --> 00:40:50,261
We are the General Staff of the bunker.
398
00:40:50,261 --> 00:40:53,301
I hope it looks better now.
399
00:40:53,301 --> 00:40:58,741
The enemy has already landed
150,000 heavily armed soldiers.
400
00:40:58,741 --> 00:41:04,461
They control 130 square kilometers.
British 6th Airborne Division -
401
00:41:04,461 --> 00:41:07,741
- Have taken the bridge over the Orne .
402
00:41:07,741 --> 00:41:14,061
They also crushed our artillery
Merville , albeit with heavy losses .
403
00:41:14,061 --> 00:41:18,821
- Is that all?
- The information is scarce.
404
00:41:18,821 --> 00:41:21,701
Radio traffic disturbed by the enemy.
405
00:41:21,701 --> 00:41:26,821
The French have sabotaged
telephone lines and roads maintenance .
406
00:41:26,821 --> 00:41:30,781
We must expect
a second major offensive .
407
00:41:30,781 --> 00:41:33,981
They have darkened the coast at Dover.
408
00:41:33,981 --> 00:41:38,901
Say it out loud , Speidel .
You have failed .
409
00:41:44,661 --> 00:41:49,741
Fuhrer HEADQUARTERS
In MARGIVAL , 17 JUNI 1944
410
00:42:01,381 --> 00:42:04,741
Field Marshal Erna von Rundstedt
and Rommel .
411
00:42:11,701 --> 00:42:15,141
Thanks for coming .
Go ahead and sit down.
412
00:42:19,581 --> 00:42:26,381
I must say I am speechless over
your local masters failures.
413
00:42:26,381 --> 00:42:30,141
The armed forces were taken by surprise
with his pants down .
414
00:42:30,141 --> 00:42:33,621
That says a lot
about the condition of your soldiers .
415
00:42:33,621 --> 00:42:36,941
That's the enemy propaganda.
416
00:42:36,941 --> 00:42:41,101
Call it what you want.
But the landing was not hindered .
417
00:42:41,101 --> 00:42:46,461
- What you assured would happen.
- The forces fighting sacrificing.
418
00:42:46,461 --> 00:42:52,701
That we could not prevent the invasion
is anti-aircraft and naval wrong.
419
00:42:52,701 --> 00:42:57,181
The Army has made ??a superhuman effort
in an unequal battle.
420
00:42:57,181 --> 00:43:02,101
But the enemy's superiority in the air
and that their fleet had to work undisturbed
421
00:43:02,101 --> 00:43:06,461
- Made it impossible
to fight the enemy as planned.
422
00:43:07,781 --> 00:43:14,781
It is unfortunate that no ... for over -
command knew the situation at the front.
423
00:43:14,781 --> 00:43:18,821
Instead
believed in the enemy's propaganda.
424
00:43:18,821 --> 00:43:24,661
It is crucial to maintain Cherbourg .
If not, take the enemy Normandy
425
00:43:24,661 --> 00:43:27,701
- And maybe all of France.
426
00:43:31,381 --> 00:43:38,381
We must choose between keeping ...
Cherbourg ... and to prevent the enemy .
427
00:43:38,381 --> 00:43:41,101
We can not do both.
428
00:43:41,101 --> 00:43:44,461
Do you have the same opinion , von Rundstedt ?
429
00:43:44,461 --> 00:43:48,901
We must give up the rigid system
by Peninsula
430
00:43:48,901 --> 00:43:54,341
- And embark on an orderly retreat
to the port and fortress .
431
00:43:54,341 --> 00:43:58,821
And at Caen, in front of Orne,
we should avoid ...
432
00:43:58,821 --> 00:44:04,461
We will not know anything! It applies
to stand up, hold on and die!
433
00:44:04,461 --> 00:44:08,941
Designate a particular skilled commander
Cherbourg .
434
00:44:08,941 --> 00:44:15,421
Show field groomsmen how devastating
our retaliation is the enemy.
435
00:44:18,821 --> 00:44:25,141
Since yesterday , we have continually fired
V1 missiles against London.
436
00:44:25,141 --> 00:44:28,381
All bar one ton of explosives .
437
00:44:28,381 --> 00:44:31,341
We have received many great hits .
438
00:44:31,341 --> 00:44:37,181
According to our agents can handle civil
population not much more, and ...
439
00:44:37,181 --> 00:44:41,181
A hostile bomb dressing
approaching our airspace .
440
00:44:43,741 --> 00:44:47,701
My Führer , we should probably
go to the shelter.
441
00:45:04,261 --> 00:45:09,061
And now ? We need to tell
that the situation is hopeless.
442
00:45:09,061 --> 00:45:13,101
- He only listens to you.
- You are the commander in chief in the West.
443
00:45:13,101 --> 00:45:18,461
My power is just enough to move
my guards from left to right.
444
00:45:37,541 --> 00:45:42,261
My Führer , you know
I am your faithful servant.
445
00:45:42,261 --> 00:45:45,661
- Can I ?
- Have a seat .
446
00:45:58,741 --> 00:46:00,741
Do not you think ...
447
00:46:01,781 --> 00:46:05,701
... it's time
to consider other options?
448
00:46:11,141 --> 00:46:14,941
- What do you mean?
- To negotiate .
449
00:46:20,021 --> 00:46:23,061
No longer want to negotiate with me.
450
00:46:23,061 --> 00:46:26,861
The enemy thinks obliterate Germany.
451
00:46:26,861 --> 00:46:32,501
Now we only have each individual
fanatical resistance.
452
00:46:33,541 --> 00:46:35,901
Are you prepared for that?
453
00:46:37,901 --> 00:46:40,661
Are you prepared for it, Rommel ?
454
00:46:42,261 --> 00:46:43,541
Yes.
455
00:46:55,661 --> 00:47:00,581
" Where knowledge and ability ends
and intuition takes over " -
456
00:47:00,581 --> 00:47:05,301
- " In the sensory perception ability
and inspiration " -
457
00:47:05,301 --> 00:47:10,101
- "Are general's leadership.
It possesses Rommel . "
458
00:47:10,101 --> 00:47:12,981
You certainly amuses you .
459
00:47:14,301 --> 00:47:17,661
- General Field Marshal .
- Good criticism?
460
00:47:17,661 --> 00:47:19,901
Here you are.
461
00:47:24,181 --> 00:47:27,301
Fuehrer wants to keep Cherbourg .
462
00:47:27,301 --> 00:47:30,021
And stand west of the Orne .
463
00:47:30,021 --> 00:47:33,781
Begin the necessary preparations ,
Speidel .
464
00:47:33,781 --> 00:47:37,901
Can General Marcks do
a diversion ?
465
00:47:37,901 --> 00:47:42,021
General Marcks killed
in a hostile air attack .
466
00:47:45,541 --> 00:47:49,301
Do you want today's total loss figures?
467
00:47:50,741 --> 00:47:53,341
No, it is not necessary.
468
00:47:53,981 --> 00:47:56,501
Gentlemen .
469
00:48:09,421 --> 00:48:13,341
GERMAN POSITION NEAR CAEN
20 JUNI 1944
470
00:48:20,261 --> 00:48:25,221
Once you have taken the height , you protect
road to Bayeux. Best of luck.
471
00:48:25,221 --> 00:48:27,661
Thank you, Field Marshal .
472
00:48:30,541 --> 00:48:36,061
- Let the Brits have a fiery !
- Yes, Field Marshal !
473
00:48:36,061 --> 00:48:38,061
Good .
474
00:48:41,181 --> 00:48:44,861
- Good luck.
- Thank you, Field Marshal .
475
00:49:17,661 --> 00:49:23,301
- Back , Daniel. We must return.
- It is madness . We must here .
476
00:49:24,101 --> 00:49:26,061
Oh well ...
477
00:49:27,621 --> 00:49:31,861
Well, Daniel. Run.
478
00:50:07,261 --> 00:50:11,341
Who's there?
Come forward . Hello?
479
00:50:12,701 --> 00:50:14,821
Bonsoir . < / i >
480
00:50:14,821 --> 00:50:18,661
Sorry. It was not supposed
to scare you.
481
00:50:18,661 --> 00:50:23,621
- What are the Countess this?
- I often come here . It's beautiful.
482
00:50:23,621 --> 00:50:28,781
Our soldiers may think you are
partisan, or British agent .
483
00:50:28,781 --> 00:50:33,221
- Maybe I am.
- Then I might look up.
484
00:50:33,221 --> 00:50:38,141
- I would be a great trophy for the British.
- Yes. Desert Fox .
485
00:50:38,901 --> 00:50:45,141
Long time no see . Now I am only he
who could not stop the invasion .
486
00:50:45,141 --> 00:50:49,821
- I'm sorry you do it?
- I am a soldier. Do not forget it .
487
00:50:53,021 --> 00:50:57,981
I 'll tell the men
that you are walking around up here.
488
00:51:02,141 --> 00:51:04,741
Dear Lu . I'm fine .
489
00:51:04,741 --> 00:51:09,821
I must not lose heart .
Although much hope has been dashed .
490
00:51:09,821 --> 00:51:11,781
Yes ?
491
00:51:14,701 --> 00:51:19,181
The Russians have broken through
Army Group Mitte.
492
00:51:19,181 --> 00:51:23,981
Seven German divisions have surrendered.
The front is in dissolution .
493
00:51:31,381 --> 00:51:34,021
It's probably out of the east.
494
00:51:34,021 --> 00:51:36,621
Yes.
495
00:51:36,621 --> 00:51:39,861
It will be nice when next week is over.
496
00:51:44,301 --> 00:51:47,541
There was one more thing.
497
00:51:57,501 --> 00:52:02,661
- Where is it?
- Småstaden Oradour , near Limoges .
498
00:52:02,661 --> 00:52:06,941
a SS- Panzer division
leveled it to the ground.
499
00:52:06,941 --> 00:52:11,781
All residents were killed ...
which 450 women and children.
500
00:52:11,781 --> 00:52:16,941
- Revenge of the abducted SS officer .
- How do you know this?
501
00:52:16,941 --> 00:52:21,821
Army management .
Stülpnagel have already protested.
502
00:52:21,821 --> 00:52:27,541
Hitler has banned the responsible
officer successor to justice.
503
00:52:29,101 --> 00:52:31,021
Really?
504
00:52:41,101 --> 00:52:43,341
Good night.
505
00:52:50,821 --> 00:52:52,981
Good night.
506
00:53:00,701 --> 00:53:06,461
Poor bastards . Mom said I should
thank God that I ended up with you.
507
00:53:06,461 --> 00:53:10,421
- Why?
- With you , nothing can happen to me.
508
00:53:48,301 --> 00:53:52,741
The new quartermaster ,
Colonel Finckh , has come now.
509
00:53:52,741 --> 00:53:57,261
- He wants to present itself .
- Good, I will soon.
510
00:53:57,261 --> 00:54:00,501
- Field Marshal ...
- What is it?
511
00:54:02,021 --> 00:54:08,661
Führer want you to do a dissipative
attacks against Americans in Cherbourg .
512
00:54:08,661 --> 00:54:12,421
He wants to 7th Army, advancing
on the west flank.
513
00:54:12,421 --> 00:54:18,901
Explain that we are only able to keep
our defense line in western Normandy.
514
00:54:18,901 --> 00:54:22,101
The front is inappropriate for an attack.
515
00:54:27,901 --> 00:54:31,141
Today telephoned General Marcks brother.
516
00:54:31,141 --> 00:54:35,541
He wanted to know exactly to the minute
when the general died .
517
00:54:35,541 --> 00:54:37,061
Why ?
518
00:54:37,061 --> 00:54:42,221
At 11 o'clock that day fell general's
photo down from the wall of his brother.
519
00:54:42,221 --> 00:54:46,021
- And ?
- General met ten forty-five .
520
00:54:46,021 --> 00:54:50,701
- Exactly 11 , he died . Unbelievable, huh ?
- Do you believe in miracles ?
521
00:54:50,701 --> 00:54:55,381
It just makes Hitler. LEASTWAYS
what the course of the war .
522
00:54:55,381 --> 00:55:01,341
"Do not say bridgehead , but the last part
of France as the enemy occupying. "
523
00:55:02,941 --> 00:55:06,341
Cherbourg fall within three days.
524
00:55:06,341 --> 00:55:11,181
Within four weeks of the enemy breaks through
and storms to the Reich frontier .
525
00:55:11,181 --> 00:55:16,461
We can only pray that the Allies
is faster than the Russians.
526
00:55:18,381 --> 00:55:24,141
- You are not alone in thinking so .
- I think everyone here agrees .
527
00:55:25,181 --> 00:55:28,261
Not true, Dr. Speidel ?
528
00:55:29,221 --> 00:55:36,061
Hitler is furious. He can not
draw conclusions or make decisions.
529
00:55:36,061 --> 00:55:41,221
Just saying : "To the last man ,"
gives nothing , except a disaster.
530
00:55:42,021 --> 00:55:46,261
The idea of ??an attack on Cherbourg
is pure idiocy .
531
00:55:49,421 --> 00:55:54,141
You 're the only ELIGIBLE Germany .
To end the war .
532
00:55:54,141 --> 00:55:58,741
- There are others who are for war.
- Then it is they who must be shot .
533
00:55:58,741 --> 00:56:01,581
If it is not possible otherwise .
534
00:56:01,581 --> 00:56:05,981
Good God, Speidel .
You 're a true warrior .
535
00:56:06,901 --> 00:56:09,421
Battle of Cherbourg ,
536
00:56:09,421 --> 00:56:14,021
- the enemy has devastated
large parts of the city ...
537
00:56:14,021 --> 00:56:20,221
On the odd factories and bases
fluttering banner of resistance yet .
538
00:56:20,221 --> 00:56:27,821
yet waged hot , bloody battles
on city streets.
539
00:56:28,461 --> 00:56:32,701
Rommel HEADQUARTERS
25 JUNI 1944
540
00:56:34,061 --> 00:56:38,261
From General von Schlieben :
" The final battle of Cherbourg . "
541
00:56:38,261 --> 00:56:42,421
" We attacked with tanks.
Where is fly in aid? "
542
00:56:43,461 --> 00:56:49,261
" Flight Over The aid can not
penetrate hostile roadblocks . "
543
00:56:49,261 --> 00:56:54,941
" The Fuhrer's orders , you shall fight
to the last bullet . May God be with you. "
544
00:56:54,941 --> 00:57:00,621
Fuhrer's orders were to the last man .
Should you really undermine it?
545
00:57:00,621 --> 00:57:06,461
- Male or bullet, what is the difference?
- Kula means surrender, not dead.
546
00:57:08,581 --> 00:57:12,381
I hope that the general interpretation of the
just like that.
547
00:57:22,901 --> 00:57:28,541
Armed Forces in Cherbourg entered
in the German hero story ,
548
00:57:28,541 --> 00:57:31,301
- and made ??himself immortal .
549
00:57:31,301 --> 00:57:34,501
In large bunkers , there were men ,
550
00:57:34,501 --> 00:57:39,021
- which had been bricked in , and defended
through portholes .
551
00:57:39,021 --> 00:57:44,661
They did run out of their last bullets
and then blew themselves up in the air.
552
00:57:44,661 --> 00:57:50,181
If a nation at war five years ,
553
00:57:50,181 --> 00:57:53,461
- can perform such acts ...
554
00:57:57,781 --> 00:58:01,861
- Are you sure? He travels to Germany?
- Yes.
555
00:58:01,861 --> 00:58:04,781
He was directed to Obersalzberg .
556
00:58:04,781 --> 00:58:09,301
How can you be so well informed ,
Duchess ?
557
00:58:09,301 --> 00:58:12,421
I take care of my job. Did you shoot yours.
558
00:58:12,421 --> 00:58:15,421
Do you really want me to do this ?
559
00:58:19,981 --> 00:58:21,941
Thank you.
560
00:58:44,581 --> 00:58:50,341
You do realize headquarters seeking
a scapegoat for Cherbourg case?
561
00:58:50,341 --> 00:58:55,261
- You or me.
- I declare that the war should end .
562
00:58:55,261 --> 00:58:59,661
- The whole world is clearly against us.
- What would you have me do?
563
00:58:59,661 --> 00:59:04,101
- That you do not remain silent . Stay with me.
- You are right .
564
00:59:04,101 --> 00:59:06,621
We sacrifice both of us.
565
00:59:15,861 --> 00:59:19,261
He will give way again .
Just wait .
566
00:59:19,741 --> 00:59:23,101
Obersalzberg
29 JUNI 1944
567
00:59:29,141 --> 00:59:32,461
It's six o'clock . They let us wait.
568
00:59:38,981 --> 00:59:44,981
Are you here von Kluge ? How nice that you
recovered you so quickly after the accident.
569
00:59:44,981 --> 00:59:49,661
Thank you. Führer asked me to assess
the situation in the East.
570
00:59:51,541 --> 00:59:56,181
Excuse me,
but my plane to Berlin waiting.
571
00:59:58,301 --> 01:00:00,941
Attention on deck . Look ahead .
572
01:00:14,221 --> 01:00:16,861
Make your statement .
573
01:00:29,101 --> 01:00:33,861
My Führer , I'm here
as commander of Army Group B.
574
01:00:34,901 --> 01:00:38,061
It's probably the last chance I have -
575
01:00:38,061 --> 01:00:44,021
- To describe the situation on the western front
for those of you who are responsible for the people.
576
01:00:44,021 --> 01:00:50,141
- I'll start with the political situation .
- You manifest your only in military affairs.
577
01:00:50,141 --> 01:00:54,701
My responsibility towards Germany
forcing me into it .
578
01:00:54,701 --> 01:00:59,181
I did not ask for your personal opinion
about world politics.
579
01:00:59,181 --> 01:01:03,101
Please adhere solely to the purely military .
580
01:01:03,101 --> 01:01:07,941
You know how disappointed I am
that you did not manage -
581
01:01:07,941 --> 01:01:14,101
- To attack the Cotentin Peninsula .
Cherbourg had not had to fall.
582
01:01:14,101 --> 01:01:19,021
The side with the best maintenance roads
always win battles .
583
01:01:19,021 --> 01:01:23,701
Montgomery maintenance pathways
was more vulnerable than yours.
584
01:01:23,701 --> 01:01:29,821
But the advantage you lost
because you were so hesitant .
585
01:01:29,821 --> 01:01:34,141
Now we have to lock the British in Caen,
implement a counterattack -
586
01:01:34,141 --> 01:01:37,501
- And let the enemy bleed to death in Normandy.
587
01:01:38,821 --> 01:01:43,421
National Secretary ,
you get the generals' reports .
588
01:01:43,421 --> 01:01:50,421
Question Hauser or Dietrich .
They know how hopeless the situation is.
589
01:01:54,021 --> 01:01:59,981
Mein Führer , I can not go from here
without having talked about Germany with you.
590
01:01:59,981 --> 01:02:02,461
Can we talk privately ?
591
01:02:04,061 --> 01:02:06,901
It's probably best that you leave the room.
592
01:02:41,701 --> 01:02:44,661
Should we stay at your house in Mr Lingen ?
593
01:02:44,661 --> 01:02:48,781
... where we are . And we do not give
after an inch without a fight.
594
01:02:48,781 --> 01:02:52,461
And if we do that ,
we turn back now!
595
01:02:52,461 --> 01:02:55,901
We are so happy
we know since yesterday
596
01:02:55,901 --> 01:03:00,061
- that our Colonel-General Rommel ...
597
01:03:13,341 --> 01:03:19,341
General Field Marshal ? Should we stay
at your home in Mr Lingen ?
598
01:03:36,741 --> 01:03:39,021
I see you again?
599
01:03:54,701 --> 01:03:57,221
Take care of your mother, Manfred.
600
01:04:11,261 --> 01:04:14,261
Rommel HEADQUARTERS
30 JUNI 1944
601
01:04:24,941 --> 01:04:28,021
- Well, Speidel ?
- The front remains.
602
01:04:28,021 --> 01:04:29,821
For a while , yes.
603
01:04:36,581 --> 01:04:39,421
I am under no illusions, Speidel .
604
01:04:40,461 --> 01:04:44,421
- Next time it will be me.
- Rundstedt , then?
605
01:04:47,421 --> 01:04:49,701
Just as weak as ever.
606
01:04:49,701 --> 01:04:53,741
He'll follow orders ,
regardless of how they are corked .
607
01:04:53,741 --> 01:04:58,581
- All the facts are clear .
- Hitler did not care. He doubt ...
608
01:04:58,581 --> 01:05:03,181
... the enemy's superiority in the air
and devastating sjöartilleri -
609
01:05:03,181 --> 01:05:06,101
- As well as our maintenance problems .
610
01:05:06,101 --> 01:05:10,061
He does not believe us ,
but we should believe him.
611
01:05:10,061 --> 01:05:12,941
I simply say : " V -1".
612
01:05:14,061 --> 01:05:16,981
Field Marshal ...
613
01:05:16,981 --> 01:05:22,341
Leave your command .
It will take effect in the people.
614
01:05:22,341 --> 01:05:27,701
- You're still our most popular soldier.
- Those at the top do not allow it .
615
01:05:29,861 --> 01:05:35,381
They expect probably that I
'll die a heroic death ... at the front.
616
01:05:37,581 --> 01:05:40,181
But I can help a little .
617
01:05:42,621 --> 01:05:45,421
My family is prepared for it.
618
01:05:53,181 --> 01:06:00,181
You must take care of him. He is
soldier dog. He will never be more civil .
619
01:06:01,741 --> 01:06:04,061
It is certainly the .
620
01:06:08,661 --> 01:06:10,981
Rommel . Yes ?
621
01:06:16,901 --> 01:06:21,181
I see.
Thank you for informing me .
622
01:06:21,181 --> 01:06:24,821
Rundstedt receive the Knight's Cross
and leave office .
623
01:06:24,821 --> 01:06:27,021
And you?
624
01:06:28,861 --> 01:06:31,901
- I remain.
- As Rundstedts substitute?
625
01:06:31,901 --> 01:06:36,981
No, Field Marshal Kluge
becomes the new commander in chief in the West.
626
01:06:36,981 --> 01:06:39,621
Right on !
627
01:06:39,621 --> 01:06:42,861
Rommel HEADQUARTERS
3 JULI 1944
628
01:06:44,461 --> 01:06:48,501
- How are you, Speidel ?
- Good . And you?
629
01:06:48,501 --> 01:06:54,461
The British attack with great force.
It takes great manpower to hold out .
630
01:06:54,461 --> 01:07:00,061
We need them in Saint -Lô, to
prevent Americans breakthrough.
631
01:07:00,061 --> 01:07:03,661
We abandon neither Caen
or bridgehead .
632
01:07:03,661 --> 01:07:08,381
We do not give an inch without a fight.
Führer's orders are clear.
633
01:07:08,381 --> 01:07:13,421
Fuhrer not aware mode .
The order to hold out is devastating.
634
01:07:13,421 --> 01:07:17,741
From now , you are getting , and everyone else,
get used to execute orders.
635
01:07:17,741 --> 01:07:23,821
- What do you mean?
- You tend to ignore your superiors ...
636
01:07:23,821 --> 01:07:26,701
... and run to the Führer instead.
637
01:07:30,061 --> 01:07:35,741
Gentlemen, leave me alone
with Field Marshal awhile.
638
01:07:46,661 --> 01:07:49,781
You have apparently forgotten
I am Field Marshal .
639
01:07:49,781 --> 01:07:54,061
I want reports
from all masters on the front.
640
01:07:54,061 --> 01:08:00,781
And statistics on the enemy naval
range artillery and ammunition.
641
01:08:00,781 --> 01:08:07,381
Go to the front! Then you can see for yourself
the hostile sjöartilleriets force.
642
01:08:08,541 --> 01:08:13,021
It is noticeable
you most have led a division .
643
01:08:17,501 --> 01:08:20,941
And you have not fought
against the British.
644
01:08:20,941 --> 01:08:24,581
Heavy weapons , armor
and artillery stationed -
645
01:08:24,581 --> 01:08:28,781
- Beyond the hostile sjöartilleriets
range.
646
01:08:28,781 --> 01:08:35,021
Artillery at Cagny and Émiéville .
And behind those tanks.
647
01:08:35,021 --> 01:08:38,661
To keep the enemy occupied.
648
01:08:38,661 --> 01:08:42,861
- How long ?
- In the best case , three weeks.
649
01:08:42,861 --> 01:08:46,461
Until they break through.
So we have three weeks.
650
01:08:46,461 --> 01:08:50,581
- For what?
- To find other solutions.
651
01:09:08,221 --> 01:09:11,421
- Field Marshal .
- What ? I'm dead tired .
652
01:09:11,421 --> 01:09:15,781
Do you remember Colonel von Hofacker ?
In Stülpnagels staff .
653
01:09:15,781 --> 01:09:20,221
- He wants to talk to you. Tomorrow .
- About what?
654
01:09:20,221 --> 01:09:24,341
I am here on my cousin's behalf;
Count von Stauffenberg .
655
01:09:24,341 --> 01:09:28,861
You might know that he now
manage the reserve army ?
656
01:09:28,861 --> 01:09:32,661
Yes. Has he recovered
from their injuries ?
657
01:09:32,661 --> 01:09:35,741
As much as possible , yes.
658
01:09:44,301 --> 01:09:47,861
He wants your assessment
the war situation in the West.
659

General Field Marshal Rommel !
675
01:11:22,781 --> 01:11:25,981
I have read your progress .

I tell the Fuhrer I look
as seriously as you state .

The Americans soon break through.
In some areas , all men dead.
679
01:11:41,941 --> 01:11:47,261
- Just tell me is no longer enough .
- What do you suggest?
680
01:11:47,261 --> 01:11:52,341
The Fuhrer would negotiate peace .
Otherwise , we open the front.
681
01:11:52,341 --> 01:11:56,981
- Would you give Hitler an ultimatum ?
- Call it what you want.
682
01:11:56,981 --> 01:12:01,701
I give him one last chance .
If he does not , I act .
683
01:12:01,701 --> 01:12:05,941
- Can I count on you ?
- Do you not hope .
684
01:12:05,941 --> 01:12:11,461
- Hitler allow themselves to be impressed .
- We still have an obligation to act.
685
01:12:11,461 --> 01:12:16,341
Do you accept that my chief of staff
writing this to Hitler?
686
01:12:20,541 --> 01:12:24,941
First, we consult with the commanders ,
especially SS Generals .
687
01:12:24,941 --> 01:12:30,341
- Without them you can not .
- I will send them my intentions .

- Does he or does he not ?
- What ?
689
01:12:49,141 --> 01:12:52,941
That one is planning a coup d'etat in Berlin.
690
01:12:54,181 --> 01:12:57,821
- How do you know?
- General Speidel said.
691
01:12:57,821 --> 01:13:03,741
He insinuated that for me.
Although your name was mentioned then.
692
01:13:06,341 --> 01:13:08,181
I know nothing .
693
01:13:08,181 --> 01:13:13,621
Position the front worsens by the day .
97,000 man has been killed ...
694
01:13:13,621 --> 01:13:18,061
Although troop material losses
are unusually high -
695
01:13:18,061 --> 01:13:20,901
- And have only partially replaced .
696
01:13:20,901 --> 01:13:24,381
... of which 2,360 officers.
697
01:13:24,381 --> 01:13:28,341
That means , on average,
2500 to 3000 to ...
698
01:13:28,341 --> 01:13:30,341
A total of about 10 000 men.
699
01:13:30,341 --> 01:13:34,741
As the fighting has shown ,
will the hostile stake -
700
01:13:34,741 --> 01:13:38,741
- That part of crush
even the bravest of troops -
701
01:13:38,741 --> 01:13:42,781
- Leading to loss of
people , weapons and ...
702
01:13:43,821 --> 01:13:45,421
We have problems .
703
01:13:47,021 --> 01:13:51,101
- Heil Hitler, Obersturmbannführer !
- Heil Hitler.
704
01:13:52,821 --> 01:13:55,941
- Heil Hitler !
- What do I owe the honor ?
705
01:13:55,941 --> 01:14:00,221
- A French saboteur is hiding here.
- In my headquarters ?
706
01:14:00,221 --> 01:14:03,221
Countess . Count nephews.
707
01:14:04,381 --> 01:14:07,981
Count's family has my protection .
Who maintains it?
708
01:14:07,981 --> 01:14:13,421
We grabbed a British agent yesterday.
He has unequivocally pointed to her.
709
01:14:13,421 --> 01:14:17,621
- You must be kidding.
- I understand that news shocks you.
710
01:14:18,741 --> 01:14:21,701
But you should be grateful.
711
01:14:21,701 --> 01:14:24,581
They had planned to assassinate you.
712
01:14:25,621 --> 01:14:29,221
Stand species Fuhrer .
This teaches interest you.
713
01:14:50,101 --> 01:14:53,421
I guess it does not
the army group's radio.
714
01:14:54,941 --> 01:14:59,061
- SS has gripped the people of the village.
- The Countess ?
715
01:14:59,061 --> 01:15:00,901
No.
716
01:15:02,501 --> 01:15:05,341
Where did we ?
717
01:15:05,341 --> 01:15:09,221
" The troops are fighting heroically all over. "
718
01:15:09,221 --> 01:15:15,221
... but still approaching
the uneven battle ... an end.
719
01:15:16,261 --> 01:15:23,341
According to me it is necessary ... to draw
political conclusions from the situation .
720
01:15:23,341 --> 01:15:28,221
"According to me it is necessary to draw
political conclusions from the situation . "
721
01:15:28,221 --> 01:15:32,181
- Should you send it?
- You are right . It's too risky .
722
01:15:32,181 --> 01:15:34,661
I talk to him.
723
01:15:34,661 --> 01:15:37,501
We want to have peace negotiations.
724
01:15:37,501 --> 01:15:43,701
" Politics " is a loaded word for Hitler.
He believes that Providence rescues him .
725
01:15:43,701 --> 01:15:48,981
- Delete the word "political" .
- Good . I'm sending it to Kluge today.
726
01:15:50,661 --> 01:15:53,501
- Field Marshal ...
- What is it now, when ?
727
01:15:55,021 --> 01:15:57,861
How much told von Hofacker ?
728
01:15:57,861 --> 01:16:01,741
- What do you mean?
- Initiate he s in the plans ?
729
01:16:01,741 --> 01:16:06,661
He asked if I could think of
a new state and military power. Plans ?
730
01:16:06,661 --> 01:16:11,821
I do not know . Only a small circle
know how the coup designed.
731
01:16:11,821 --> 01:16:16,381
If you prosecute Hitler , I'm with .
But I support no attacks.
732
01:16:16,381 --> 01:16:19,821
There I have not changed my mind , General.
733
01:16:19,821 --> 01:16:22,541
PARIS
16 JULI 1944
734
01:16:37,101 --> 01:16:41,181
He knows nothing about the attack .
Hofacker said nothing about it.
735
01:16:41,181 --> 01:16:44,141
He believes that we should prosecute Hitler.
736
01:16:44,141 --> 01:16:49,581
Hofacker said Rommel stood
available to the peace negotiations.
737
01:16:51,541 --> 01:16:55,101
For peace negotiations.
Not for an attack .
738
01:16:55,101 --> 01:16:58,261
He must realize that it will be violent .
739
01:16:58,261 --> 01:17:01,901
" Fierce " does not murder.
740
01:17:01,901 --> 01:17:04,221
Gentlemen ...
741
01:17:06,701 --> 01:17:12,421
We may not be made ??for it, but
it must be done . With or without Rommel .
742
01:17:12,421 --> 01:17:16,741
- Hitler faced with an ultimatum .
- What ? !
743
01:17:18,741 --> 01:17:25,061
Does he not agree to peace negotiations ,
opens Rommel and Kluge front.
744
01:17:25,061 --> 01:17:30,181
When Hitler may ultimatum
depositing he Rommel . Or worse.
745
01:17:30,181 --> 01:17:34,221
- We risk Valkyrias success.
- " Valkyrie " ?
746
01:17:35,861 --> 01:17:42,701
Stauffenberg's people have a plan, if
national emergency imposed.
747
01:17:43,741 --> 01:17:47,741
Reserve Army takes over power
the Interior.
748
01:17:47,741 --> 01:17:51,901
the condition is
an attempt on Hitler.
749
01:17:53,141 --> 01:17:58,141
As plotters appears
not as authors ?
750
01:17:58,141 --> 01:18:02,981
No. It will appear as a coup
of party members and SS.
751
01:18:02,981 --> 01:18:07,621
The plan enables all departments,
though they are not involved.
752
01:18:07,621 --> 01:18:14,221
They act according to the emergency plan
Hitler himself has blessed .
753
01:18:14,221 --> 01:18:17,981
We just need a reason
to enable it.
754
01:18:17,981 --> 01:18:20,901
- Ingenious .
- The front is the only uncertain.
755
01:18:20,901 --> 01:18:27,581
Just because we contacted Rommel .
The soldiers respect him enormously.
756
01:18:27,581 --> 01:18:31,661
- Should he just be propaganda ?
- Rommel factor .
757
01:18:31,661 --> 01:18:36,861
- Goebbels made ??him a folk hero.
- That we use now.
758
01:18:36,861 --> 01:18:41,701
Now you have a unique opportunity
to make people a really great service.
759
01:18:41,701 --> 01:18:44,821
It is marshal
certainly aware .
760
01:18:49,661 --> 01:18:52,141
Yes ?
761
01:18:52,141 --> 01:18:55,941
- General Field Marshal .
- Good morning. Something new ?
762
01:18:55,941 --> 01:18:59,701
according Aldinger
go ye to Dietrich today.
763
01:18:59,701 --> 01:19:04,101
- Yes, to the front in Caen.
- Should you discuss your plans?
764
01:19:04,101 --> 01:19:05,941
Of course .
765
01:19:05,941 --> 01:19:10,021
He is an inveterate National Socialist .
He tells SS.
766
01:19:10,021 --> 01:19:13,741
I know who he is,
but we have no choice.
767
01:19:13,741 --> 01:19:17,581
- Otherwise, the Waffen -SS war.
- Why not ...
768
01:19:17,581 --> 01:19:23,141
- ... Tell Himmler and Goebbels ?
- Dietrich is experienced . He understands .
769
01:19:26,021 --> 01:19:31,701
Greve Schwerin armor division
is prepared to disarm the SS.
770
01:19:32,941 --> 01:19:37,821
- Determines I still here? !
- Of course .
771
01:19:38,861 --> 01:19:42,661
The enemy is still in the West,
do not forget it .

NORMANDY , THE ROAD TO livarot

- Respect ?
774
01:20:10,141 --> 01:20:13,381
No, fear.
They do not know what to expect.
775
01:20:13,381 --> 01:20:16,981
- What do you think?
- That we become a British colony.
776
01:20:16,981 --> 01:20:21,941
- And not a part of Stalin's Bolshevism.
- Enemy Plan! Eight.
777
01:20:21,941 --> 01:20:23,421
Give it here .
778
01:20:29,421 --> 01:20:33,621
Do you see the way there?
Attempts to reach the forest. Quick!
779
01:20:33,621 --> 01:20:36,221
Hurry up! Accelerate !
780

Help me! Hurry up!
783
01:21:27,261 --> 01:21:29,701
Hurry up! Come on .

PARIS
Kluges HEADQUARTERS
785
01:21:47,821 --> 01:21:50,181
Blumentritt .
786
01:21:50,181 --> 01:21:53,301
Just a moment . - Field Marshal ?
787
01:21:53,301 --> 01:21:56,501

788
01:22:00,661 --> 01:22:02,861
Yes, Kluge here.

Yes. Roger that.
790
01:22:09,781 --> 01:22:13,261
No, I tell the high command .
791
01:22:13,261 --> 01:22:15,501
Blumentritt .
792
01:22:20,261 --> 01:22:24,141
Rommel is badly wounded.
They do not know if he survives .
793
01:22:24,141 --> 01:22:28,741
- It was taken only it!
- Call up the command.
794
01:22:28,741 --> 01:22:35,941
What happened to Rommel's letter ?
Have we sent it to the Führer than ?
795
01:22:35,941 --> 01:22:39,941
- No, you wanted to add it .
- Well, yes ...
796
01:22:39,941 --> 01:22:42,421
Archive it for so long.
797
01:22:48,101 --> 01:22:52,981
He has a skull fracture . it is
a miracle that he survived the night .
798
01:22:54,021 --> 01:22:59,221
The Führer has given me the command here ,
until Rommel has recovered .
799
01:23:00,101 --> 01:23:05,701
- Can I count on your support, Speidel ?
- Of course .
800
01:23:05,701 --> 01:23:09,981
I set up my fighter place
here in the castle.
801
01:23:09,981 --> 01:23:12,821
When I reach the front faster.
802
01:23:12,821 --> 01:23:16,861
- Blumentritt replace me in Paris.
- Of course .
803
01:23:16,861 --> 01:23:19,541
That's all for now.
804
01:23:22,821 --> 01:23:28,701
Yeah, right ... Since this morning , attacking
our enemy positions in Caen.
805
01:23:34,981 --> 01:23:41,501
The bombing was the 16th anti-aircraft
and 272 text Infantry Division -
806
01:23:41,501 --> 01:23:44,821
- Which was along the front , totally obliterated .
807
01:23:47,341 --> 01:23:51,021
- Keeps the front stalls ?
- So far .
808
01:23:53,101 --> 01:23:55,621
What about Daniel?
809
01:23:57,141 --> 01:23:59,381
He's dead.
810
01:23:59,381 --> 01:24:02,941
He did not .
He died in the night.
811
01:24:06,301 --> 01:24:09,781
- You have received a telegram from the Führer.
- Well ...
812
01:24:11,341 --> 01:24:17,141
"My best wishes
for a speedy recovery . "
813
01:24:17,141 --> 01:24:20,821
- Signed by Adolf Hitler.
- That's it?
814
01:24:20,821 --> 01:24:23,141
Yes, Field Marshal .
815
01:24:24,661 --> 01:24:31,901
Stauffenberg is still set to it .
He flies to headquarters tomorrow.
816
01:24:31,901 --> 01:24:37,461
Kluge has moved
th Panzer division to the front.
817
01:24:37,461 --> 01:24:42,621
- Now we can no longer stop the SS.
- We hope to Kluge .
818
01:24:42,621 --> 01:24:46,861
How's ultimatum ?
Have high command responded ?
819
01:24:46,861 --> 01:24:51,981
- It no longer refers to the ultimatum .
- Has not been sent yet?
820
01:24:53,741 --> 01:24:59,341
Kluge has been informed long .
He has met with the conspirators .
821
01:24:59,341 --> 01:25:05,021
I do not think he is ready to
peace negotiations with the Allies.
822
01:25:05,021 --> 01:25:09,381
- There will be no negotiations , General.
- Why not ?
823
01:25:09,381 --> 01:25:16,861
The Allies accept a surrender
Only if we give up even in the East.
824
01:25:18,461 --> 01:25:19,901
What does that mean?
825
01:25:19,901 --> 01:25:25,781
The fact that we show the world that we dare
revolt against these criminals .
826
01:25:37,261 --> 01:25:40,101
General!
827
01:25:40,101 --> 01:25:43,301
Countess ? What are you doing here?
828
01:25:44,421 --> 01:25:50,701
The hotel interests my colleagues.
And Rommel stabsbil falls in the eye.
829
01:25:50,701 --> 01:25:53,461
How is the field marshal ?
830
01:25:57,221 --> 01:25:59,661
I can betray you.
831
01:26:01,501 --> 01:26:05,501
SS has taken hostages in the village.
I should surrender myself .
832
01:26:05,501 --> 01:26:09,341
Some of them are children.
Can you do something ?
833
01:26:10,381 --> 01:26:15,501
- Unfortunately, I have no influence.
- I understand . Best of luck.
834
01:26:17,021 --> 01:26:19,381
What will you do ?
835
01:26:21,181 --> 01:26:24,821
- I will surrender myself .
- Do not do it .
836
01:26:24,821 --> 01:26:29,021
- Things are changing faster than you think.
- Really?
837
01:26:29,941 --> 01:26:32,941
One should never give up hope.
838
01:26:44,261 --> 01:26:49,141
night of July 19 shot fighter
over northern France down
839
01:26:49,141 --> 01:26:52,141

01:26:52,141 --> 01:26:59,021
artillery at the channel coast fired on a
destroyers that exploded and sank.
841
01:26:59,021 --> 01:27:03,861
Normandy attacked enemy Caen
from the east and southeast ,
842
01:27:03,861 --> 01:27:09,021
- with the support of armored artillery
and bombers ,
843
01:27:09,021 --> 01:27:12,781
- without achieving
the desired breakthrough .
844
01:27:14,621 --> 01:27:17,301
- It is Finckh .
- Zossens ministry .
845
01:27:17,301 --> 01:27:20,701
- Is everything ready for exercise?
- Yes.
846
01:27:28,141 --> 01:27:31,381
SAINT -LO IN NORMANDY ,
14:00
847
01:27:35,381 --> 01:27:38,261
Hostile thrusts in the south ,
848
01:27:38,261 --> 01:27:42,661
- and fierce U.S. attack
in northwest
849
01:27:42,661 --> 01:27:45,301
- caused large losses.
850
01:27:45,301 --> 01:27:50,341
Attack Aircraft supported
Land Forces Defense
851
01:27:50,341 --> 01:27:53,181
- and eliminated ten enemy tanks.
852
01:27:53,181 --> 01:27:58,621
16 enemy aircraft shot down
in aerial combat. The night of Thurs ...
853
01:28:00,701 --> 01:28:04,581
- It is Finckh .
- exercise is completed.
854
01:28:06,501 --> 01:28:08,861
Right.
855
01:28:33,021 --> 01:28:36,541
Gestapo carried out a coup
in Berlin.
856
01:28:36,541 --> 01:28:40,501
An attempt on the Führer.
He's dead.
857
01:28:40,501 --> 01:28:45,461
Witzleben and Beck
has formed an interim government .
858
01:28:45,461 --> 01:28:47,821
Who told you that ?
859
01:28:47,821 --> 01:28:50,941
Our military commander , Stülpnagel .
860
01:28:50,941 --> 01:28:55,221
SS and Gestapo carried out
a coup in Berlin.
861
01:28:55,221 --> 01:28:57,301
The Führer is dead.
862
01:28:57,301 --> 01:29:02,101
All of the security in Paris
and the leaders of the SS must be grasped .
863
01:29:02,101 --> 01:29:07,021
Here are the latest plan sketches
across all their offices.
864
01:29:07,021 --> 01:29:09,701
- All clear ?
- Yes !
865
01:29:11,101 --> 01:29:15,061
Hofacker . Just a moment .
866
01:29:15,061 --> 01:29:19,101
- The General Speidel .
- Stülpnagel .
867
01:29:19,101 --> 01:29:24,781
Field Marshal von Kluge wants to meet you
the battle command center at 20.
868
01:29:25,821 --> 01:29:29,381
An important meeting. Thank you.
869
01:29:33,981 --> 01:29:37,781
- What did he say?
- That he will .
870
01:29:37,781 --> 01:29:41,461
Yes!
What is it?
871
01:29:41,461 --> 01:29:45,941
A remote- written message
from Field Marshal Keitel .
872
01:29:45,941 --> 01:29:50,301
- What does he ?
- To Hitler alive.
873
01:29:53,781 --> 01:29:57,421
Find out the truth .
It must go.
874
01:29:57,421 --> 01:29:59,621
Sure .
875
01:30:02,101 --> 01:30:07,061
Tell me, Speidel ...
Did you and Rommel about this?
876
01:30:10,821 --> 01:30:12,501
No.
877
01:30:12,501 --> 01:30:16,581
Next, a repeat
of an important message
878
01:30:16,581 --> 01:30:19,781
- which aired this afternoon.
879
01:30:19,781 --> 01:30:24,461
Aldinger ... Lower the sound on the radio.
880
01:30:24,461 --> 01:30:30,461
Today conducted a bombing
v Führer . < / i >
881
01:30:30,461 --> 01:30:33,661
SS HEADQUARTERS IN PARIS ;
20:30
882
01:30:33,661 --> 01:30:37,821
- What now , sir ?
- We are here to arrest you.
883
01:30:37,821 --> 01:30:41,701
- In general Stülpnagels orders.
- Excuse me?
884
01:30:41,701 --> 01:30:45,221
Come on , out. Out with you!
885
01:30:51,541 --> 01:30:56,981
- Gruppenführer . Your gun , please.
- This you will regret.
886
01:30:57,941 --> 01:31:01,141
Rommel HEADQUARTERS ,
20:40
887
01:31:28,781 --> 01:31:34,741
Now that the Führer is dead, we must
make decisions. What will you do ?
888
01:31:34,741 --> 01:31:38,021
Settle down , gentlemen.
889
01:31:40,061 --> 01:31:44,901
My lords ,
We have received conflicting information .
890
01:31:44,901 --> 01:31:50,381
Half an hour ago I spoke
the phone with General Stief .
891
01:31:50,381 --> 01:31:52,701
He is currently at Mamry -
892
01:31:52,701 --> 01:31:58,661
- And have talked to some officers
who left the Wolf's Lair today.
893
01:31:58,661 --> 01:32:02,861
They say
Hitler survived the bomb attack .
894
01:32:06,541 --> 01:32:10,141
What takes place in Berlin
is not conclusive.
895
01:32:10,141 --> 01:32:14,821
The decisions made here in France
is very important.
896
01:32:14,821 --> 01:32:21,821
For Germany's future sake, abandon
Hitler and suffered the liberation of the West.
897
01:32:21,821 --> 01:32:27,421
Make the Field Marshal Rommel had
done - put an end to the bloody murders.
898
01:32:27,421 --> 01:32:33,221
Do not end even worse. Prevent
German history's worst disaster.
899
01:32:34,461 --> 01:32:37,341
Yes ? Just a moment .
900
01:32:38,381 --> 01:32:41,781
General Warlimont ,
the Führer's headquarters.
901
01:32:41,781 --> 01:32:43,941
The Kluge .
902
01:32:46,741 --> 01:32:50,381
Roger that. I am very relieved.
903
01:32:54,301 --> 01:32:59,221
General Warlimont state
that the Führer is the best of health .
904
01:32:59,221 --> 01:33:02,941
The attack failed , that is.
905
01:33:02,941 --> 01:33:10,221
- But , I thought you knew.
- No ... I had no idea.
906
01:33:11,781 --> 01:33:14,701
Gentlemen, dinner is served .
907
01:33:24,061 --> 01:33:26,901
Yes. Make gentlemen.
908
01:33:31,501 --> 01:33:35,941
- Field Marshal , I need to talk to you.
- Are we ready?
909
01:33:38,621 --> 01:33:40,781
What ? !
910
01:33:40,781 --> 01:33:45,461
The entire security
and group Führer Oberg be arrested .
911
01:33:45,461 --> 01:33:49,821
Or have already been arrested.
On Stülpnagels orders.
912
01:33:49,821 --> 01:33:55,381
He did it without consulting any
or inform their commander in chief.
913
01:33:55,381 --> 01:33:58,981
It's arbitrary conduct
unprecedented !
914
01:34:03,741 --> 01:34:06,781
Refer to
that the order is immediately withdrawn .
915
01:34:06,781 --> 01:34:10,021
The facts speak for themselves.
916
01:34:10,021 --> 01:34:13,061
Your word and your honor is in danger.
917
01:34:13,061 --> 01:34:17,181
Army's honor and the fate of millions
is in your hands .
918
01:34:22,701 --> 01:34:26,701
Well ... if the pig had died , so ...
919
01:34:40,541 --> 01:34:44,901
If I were you ,
I would try to escape as civilian.
920
01:34:44,901 --> 01:34:47,581
Try to jump off .
921
01:34:55,461 --> 01:35:02,061
A little dab ambitious , unscrupulous
foolish and criminal officers ,
922
01:35:02,061 --> 01:35:08,461
- forged a plot to eliminate
me and the leadership of the armed forces.
923
01:35:08,461 --> 01:35:13,941
The bomb was placed out of Stauffenberg
and exploded two meters away from me.
924
01:35:13,941 --> 01:35:18,261
injured many
of my co-workers difficult. One died. < / I >
925
01:35:18,261 --> 01:35:23,541
myself am completely unharmed , except
a shake of the hand, a few scratches ...
926
01:35:37,021 --> 01:35:40,381
A ROAD NEAR VERDUN ,
21 JULI 1944
927
01:35:54,821 --> 01:35:59,941
I go to the lake. I must go
on the legs. Hold at the next intersection .
928
01:36:39,901 --> 01:36:42,741
- A cigarette ?
- Yes , thank you.
929
01:37:03,101 --> 01:37:07,821
Where were you , Rommel ?
Where have you been?
930
01:37:07,821 --> 01:37:10,461
It has been mentioned name .
931
01:37:13,261 --> 01:37:16,101
The name Rommel was among them.
932
01:37:27,261 --> 01:37:32,701
Thank you for coming , sir.
But everything is already settled.
933
01:37:32,701 --> 01:37:36,381
I take full responsibility
for revolt here in Paris.
934
01:37:36,381 --> 01:37:39,821
Just Stülpnagel and I was initiated.
935
01:37:39,821 --> 01:37:43,261
All the others were unaware .
936
01:37:43,261 --> 01:37:47,181
I apologize .
But I have no regrets .
937
01:37:49,061 --> 01:37:51,741
Names mentioned . Even yours.
938
01:37:51,741 --> 01:37:56,901
It is enough if one call
you had with Hofacker July 9.
939
01:37:59,101 --> 01:38:01,741
I do not remember .
940
01:38:11,941 --> 01:38:14,621
It may not be incriminating .
941
01:38:14,621 --> 01:38:20,341
You were asked about your assessment
of state ... and you gave an honest answer .
942
01:38:24,381 --> 01:38:27,221
How does it look on the front?
943
01:38:27,221 --> 01:38:31,061
s 3rd Army broke through
at Avranches yesterday.
944
01:38:31,061 --> 01:38:34,021
I do not want to be in your shoes .
945
01:38:38,261 --> 01:38:40,501
Heil, mein Führer .
946
01:38:46,941 --> 01:38:49,501
Read this, Keitel .
947
01:38:50,541 --> 01:38:55,061
That's what that Hofacker said
if Rommel .
948
01:38:56,101 --> 01:39:00,501
He has talked to him ...
on the attack .
949
01:39:03,461 --> 01:39:06,381
If it is true , Keitel ...
950
01:39:06,381 --> 01:39:10,781
it is a ...
of my biggest disappointments ever.
951
01:39:13,381 --> 01:39:19,381
But I can not hurt the people who contact
him so highly , by prosecuting him.
952
01:39:20,421 --> 01:39:24,021
Rommel HOME IN MEN LINGEN
August 8, 1944
953
01:39:41,981 --> 01:39:46,141
- General Field Marshal .
- Loistl . What nice.
954
01:39:46,141 --> 01:39:48,261
Jesus ...
955
01:39:52,021 --> 01:39:57,781
As long as you do not wear the head during
arm , it's not so bad. Come on .
956
01:40:03,421 --> 01:40:07,101
FRANCE
August 17, 1944
957
01:40:19,701 --> 01:40:23,941
- Go ahead.
- A private letter to you from the Führer.
958
01:40:24,941 --> 01:40:29,461
You are asked to come to Berlin
and report .
959
01:40:29,461 --> 01:40:32,101
To report ?
960
01:40:53,061 --> 01:40:57,301
The Americans have already crossed the Seine
with two divisions.
961
01:41:01,941 --> 01:41:04,101
Yes, Speidel ...
962
01:41:05,061 --> 01:41:08,181
That's all for me.
963
01:41:46,741 --> 01:41:50,781
- Nice to meet you , Colonel. How are you?
- Thank you good.
964
01:41:50,781 --> 01:41:53,821
I must speak to you in private.
965
01:41:53,821 --> 01:41:57,941
Go in and tell your mom
we have guests.
966
01:41:59,941 --> 01:42:03,421
- What gives?
- Field Marshal Kluge 's death.
967
01:42:03,421 --> 01:42:06,501
He was called to Berlin, but took poison.
968
01:42:06,501 --> 01:42:10,181
General Speidel considered
you ought to know that.
969
01:42:12,741 --> 01:42:15,021
Yes. Thank you.
970
01:42:17,221 --> 01:42:19,381
Do we know why?
971
01:42:19,381 --> 01:42:24,581
We assume that Hitler gave him the debt
for frontal collapse.
972
01:42:24,581 --> 01:42:27,501
All flees from us , Field Marshal .
973
01:42:31,061 --> 01:42:34,741
Are not you ashamed , you wretch -
974
01:42:34,741 --> 01:42:39,221
- Over to you , in the most miserable manner ,
betrayed the Führer ?
975
01:42:39,221 --> 01:42:43,021
I regret only
I did not perform the attack .
976
01:42:43,021 --> 01:42:47,101
- Then it had not failed.
- It was ... Corresponding ?
977
01:42:47,101 --> 01:42:51,301
Be quiet , Mr. Freissler .
Today, it is my head.
978
01:42:52,821 --> 01:42:55,661
In a year , it applies your head .
979
01:43:25,861 --> 01:43:31,821
- What it was based on ?
- Nothing at all . It came totally unexpected.
980
01:43:31,821 --> 01:43:34,941
I will await further orders
in Germany .
981
01:43:34,941 --> 01:43:38,941
- Who will replace you in the army group?
- General Krebs .
982
01:43:38,941 --> 01:43:43,021
Although Blumentritt replaced
and shall report in Berlin.
983
01:43:43,021 --> 01:43:45,941
There is nothing unusual , Speidel .
984
01:43:45,941 --> 01:43:50,181
They are looking for scapegoats
for the fiasco on the front.
985
01:43:52,381 --> 01:43:56,901
The conspirators from Paris
sentenced a week ago .
986
01:43:57,941 --> 01:44:00,821
Horrible . Even Stülpnagel .
987
01:44:02,861 --> 01:44:06,621
Hofacker has apparently not
been executed yet.
988
01:44:11,901 --> 01:44:16,941
- They might still need him.
- Do you have anything to fear ?

01:45:16,701 --> 01:45:19,821
- Good morning , General.
- Colonel .
993
01:45:19,821 --> 01:45:22,981
He is not anymore.
994
01:45:22,981 --> 01:45:26,621
Herr von Hofacker has just
its weak life left .
995
01:45:28,861 --> 01:45:32,021
Well, Herr von Hofacker .
996
01:45:33,461 --> 01:45:37,301
Tell Dr. Speidel
what you have told us.
997
01:45:37,301 --> 01:45:41,261
That you 've talked to him
on attack plans.
998
01:45:41,261 --> 01:45:45,941
And that even Field Marshal Rommel
was informed about them.
999
01:45:45,941 --> 01:45:52,621
No. Neither marshal or
Lieutenant-General was informed.
1000
01:45:54,901 --> 01:45:57,741
If I 've said it ...
1001
01:45:58,861 --> 01:46:03,741
... I must have been ...
temporary memory confused.
1002
01:46:08,501 --> 01:46:12,261
Mr Lingen, October 1.
Dear Frau Speidel .
1003
01:46:12,261 --> 01:46:15,301
Your husband's fate touches me deeply.
1004
01:46:15,301 --> 01:46:20,661
Especially since you have not heard anything
from him for over three weeks ...
1005
01:46:20,661 --> 01:46:24,941
... worries me a lot.
I put a high value on your make-
1006
01:46:24,941 --> 01:46:30,781
- As excellent, skilled
and ambitious chief of staff.
1007
01:46:30,781 --> 01:46:35,941
I'll write to the Führer today
and put in a good word for him.
1008
01:46:35,941 --> 01:46:40,821
" Mein Führer , you know I put down
all the power and ability " -
1009
01:46:40,821 --> 01:46:46,381
- "In the Battle of France in 1940,
in Africa 1941-1943 " -
1010
01:46:46,381 --> 01:46:50,181
- 'In Italy in 1943
and on the western front in 1944. "
1011
01:46:50,181 --> 01:46:54,941
" My only goal is to fight for
and win for your new Germany. "
1012
01:46:54,941 --> 01:46:59,101
" Heil, mein Führer .
E point Rommel . "
1013
01:47:00,941 --> 01:47:04,261
Maybe he was informed, yes .
1014
01:47:04,261 --> 01:47:08,981
- But he did not participate actively .
- Knowledge is betrayal .
1015
01:47:11,541 --> 01:47:14,741
According to Lieutenant General Speidel
he -
1016
01:47:14,741 --> 01:47:20,061
- Via Hofacker ,
posted by General von Stülpnagel -
1017
01:47:20,061 --> 01:47:24,461
- Knowledge of the plan
the attack 20 July 1944 .
1018
01:47:24,461 --> 01:47:27,701
He informed
Field Marshal Rommel .
1019
01:47:27,701 --> 01:47:32,421
To Rommel did not keep information
Furthermore , he did not know .
1020
01:47:32,421 --> 01:47:36,541
I believe General Lieutenant's apology
be unlikely.
1021
01:47:36,541 --> 01:47:41,461
It was his duty to self- report
the attack plan.
1022
01:47:41,461 --> 01:47:47,501
Especially as Rommel must have said
that he did not intend to report.
1023
01:47:49,341 --> 01:47:55,301
The Führer is of the opinion
Speidels that debt can not be doubted.
1024
01:47:57,021 --> 01:48:00,061
Gentlemen .
If General Speidel claims -
1025
01:48:00,061 --> 01:48:04,581
- That he has informed Rommel
on the attack -
1026
01:48:04,581 --> 01:48:07,341
- The prosecution must disprove it .
1027
01:48:07,341 --> 01:48:12,461
This is a sophistry attempt
to acquit Dr Speidel .
1028
01:48:12,461 --> 01:48:14,741
And even then ...
1029
01:48:15,781 --> 01:48:21,781
The matter was so serious that Speidel not
should rely on marshal .
1030
01:48:21,781 --> 01:48:27,221
If there is anything a soldier
be able to rely on ...
1031
01:48:27,221 --> 01:48:31,181
so ... is it to his superiors
doing their duty .
1032
01:48:32,621 --> 01:48:36,981
I hope you realize
what this means for Rommel .
1033
01:48:38,021 --> 01:48:41,461

A gun I do not trust .
1048
01:51:08,341 --> 01:51:12,381
I brought you something
acting on three seconds.
1049
01:51:13,421 --> 01:51:17,741
- What will happen to my family ?
- The liability waivers .
1050
01:51:17,741 --> 01:51:21,581
A state funeral is prepared.
1051
01:51:21,581 --> 01:51:27,221
Your wife will get full pension
the widow of a Field Marshal .
1052
01:51:28,701 --> 01:51:31,381
Thank you.
1053
01:51:31,381 --> 01:51:34,781
May I now say goodbye
to my wife and son ?
1054
01:51:34,781 --> 01:51:36,701
Of course .
1055
01:52:07,461 --> 01:52:10,301
What's the matter?
1056
01:52:11,341 --> 01:52:13,981

I am innocent .

01:53:54,061 --> 01:53:57,341
I was not involved in the attack .
1061
01:54:09,381 --> 01:54:12,901

goodbye to a very valiant general . < / i >
1068
01:56:17,101 --> 01:56:23,221
In his daily orders Fuhrer said that a
of our best army officer has died .
1069
01:56:23,221 --> 01:56:27,381
His name is in the people's struggle
for their destiny become synonymous
1070
01:56:27,381 --> 01:56:32,141
- with outstanding bravery
and undaunted courage.
1071
01:56:58,101 --> 01:57:03,661
Residents of a southern German town line
the great soldier's last route.
1072
01:57:06,261 --> 01:57:13,181
The official cause of death was
that Rommel died of his injuries.
1073
01:57:13,181 --> 01:57:17,741
His wife and son did not reveal
that he was forced to take poison.
1074
01:57:17,741 --> 01:57:20,701
Speidel survived in prison.
1075
01:57:20,701 --> 01:57:24,261
He was liberated in April 1945
of the French army .
1076
01:57:24,261 --> 01:57:29,781
Twelve years later, he became NATO
the first German army officer .
