Woeful

Warning: Spoilers
A truly awful piece of work. The level of background research was established from the outset when we see a newly escaped Hitler enjoying his chicken lunch.. Clearly Argentina's meaty treats were too tempting for the previously vegetarian ex dictator. I could not put this down to sloppy prop work as a later witness re stated the fuhrer's love for a sausage. Though this film was not bogged down in detail, it does seem rather remiss of the Nazis to go to all that effort faking Hitlers death only to have him wandering about Argentina, proudly wearing his over sized swastika party badge, being recognised by all and sundry. Maybe just shaving off the old tash was not as totally fool proof as first hoped. The film detailed a steady stream of witnesses who had easily spotted the worlds most famous maniac. Though why they had not thought to mention it about 50 years ago seems puzzling. I look forward to reading the book when I'm next in need of a laugh.
