1:25:00
Ernst Janning was there with his wife.
1:25:03
She was very beautiful...
1:25:05
very small, very delicate.
1:25:08
She's dead now.
1:25:10
Hitler was quite taken with her.
1:25:13
He made advances towards her
during the reception.

1:25:16
He used to do things like that
in a burst of emotion.

1:25:19
I will never forget
the way Ernst Janning cut him down.

1:25:23
I don't think anybody ever did it
to him quite that way.

1:25:26
He said, "Chancellor...
1:25:28
"I do not object so much
that you are so ill-mannered.

1:25:32
"I do not object to that so much.
1:25:36
"I object that you are such a bourgeois. "
1:25:39
Hitler whitened, stared at Janning,
and walked out.

1:25:47
- Is the coffee really all right?
- Fine, thank you.

1:25:54
Men like Janning...
1:25:56
my husband and I...
1:25:58
we hated Hitler. I want you to know that.
1:26:01
And he hated us.
1:26:03
He hated my husband
because he was a real war hero...

1:26:06
and the little corporal couldn't tolerate that.
1:26:09
And he hated him
because he married into nobility...

1:26:13
which was my family.
1:26:15
Hitler was in awe of the nobility,
but he hated it.

1:26:20
That's why it's so ironic, what happened.
1:26:28
You know what happened to my husband,
don't you?

1:26:30
Yes.
1:26:32
What did he know of the crimes
they cited him for?

1:26:36
He was placed on trial
with the other military leaders.

1:26:39
It was part of their revenge.
The victors always take on the vanquished.

1:26:45
It was political murder.
1:26:48
You can see that, can't you?
1:26:51
Mrs. Bertholt, I don't know what I see.
1:26:56
I probably shouldn't be here
talking with you about this at all.
