Oliver Hirschbiegel's acclaimed drama charts the final, bunker-bound days of Adolf Hitler, as Berlin and the Third Reich crumbles around him. While the film courted some controversy upon release, facing charges of humanising a monster, the film was nevetheless a huge box office success and still ranks in the top 100 non-English grossing films of all time; as well as receiving an Oscar nomination for Best Foreign-Language Film.
