:14:05
A prophet.
A fighter.

:14:08
The last hope
of the masses.

:14:11
The shining symbol
:14:13
of Germany's will
to freedom.

:14:16
All your propaganda!
:14:22
With utmost respect,
mein Führer,

:14:26
you created
the Führer role.

:14:30
You were the director.
:14:33
l only helped
to stage it.

:14:37
My God, Goebbels,
it became a terrible strain.

:14:41
Future generations,
mein Führer, will pay

:14:43
exorbitant sums
for your paintings,

:14:46
your letters, your pistol,
:14:49
if only to feel
your presence in them.

:14:52
l was a victim
of Nazi propaganda.

:14:57
The lnvincible Führer.
:14:59
No!
:15:02
No.
:15:03
Historians will study
your childhood,

:15:07
examine your relationships,
the dark secrets.

:15:11
lt warped my judgment.
:15:14
They will exaggerate
your slightest scribbles

:15:18
into important,
irrefutable clues.

:15:21
You will be the source
of endless fascination.

:15:25
Perhaps.
:15:27
l am seeing universities
:15:31
all over the world
:15:33
with their courses--
:15:35
''Hitler, Architecture,
and Politics.''

:15:38
''Hitler.
:15:40
Salvation and Human Evolution.''
:15:42
What about
''Hitler, Wagner and Voyeurism''?

:15:46
And then there will be
artists, too,

:15:49
all striving
for comprehension.

:15:53
Careers devoured,
:15:55
trying to bridge
the distance.
