MOMENTUM PICTURES PRESENTS THE ACADEMY AWARD NOMINATED DOWNFALL IN A TWO DISC RELEASE WITH THREE HOURS OF IN-DEPTH EXTRAS
One of the most highly acclaimed and controversial films about the last days of Hitler and the end of WWII, DOWNFALL was a 2004 Academy Award nominee for Best Foreign Film and is now in the UK’s Top 10 of the highest grossing foreign films ever. Set for rental and retail release on 19 September 2005, this double disc release takes the filmic experience even further by including unmissable historical background information and insightful behind the scenes features as part of a truly absorbing three hours of extras on Disc 2.
Directed by Oliver Hirschbiegel (The Experiment), DOWNFALL features an astonishing performance by Bruno Ganz (The Manchurian Candidate, Wings of Desire) as history’s most notorious figure. Providing an unprecedented and controversial insider’s perspective, the film is a gripping insight into the madness and desperation of Hitler in the final hours of the war as the Russian Army closes a ring around Berlin. Beautifully photographed and brilliantly acted, this tour de force is at once dramatic, harrowing and remarkably authentic.
