Goebbels and the Führer review – private life of propagandist shows grotesque heart of Nazism

-
Joachim Lang’s bleak film shows a preening Goebbels and a careworn Hitler as they battle to convince the German public, and themselves, they will win the war In an appropriate spirit of cynicism and bleakness, German director Joachim Lang has made a film about the private life of Nazi propagandist Joseph Goebbels, the Hexenmeister or chief sorcerer of lies, and his always strained relationship with Hitler. Robert Stadlober plays the preening and self-pitying Goebbels and Fritz Karl is a careworn Hitler. Franziska Weisz plays Goebbels’s wife Magda, who at first resented his infidelities with showbusiness starlets but for the sake of the Fatherland submitted to the public image of a good Nazi wife and mother of six adorable children – whom Joseph and Magda finally murdered in the bunker before killing themselves. In its subversive, austerely satirical way, the film feels almost like a B-side to Oliver Hirschbiegel’s Downfall from 2004, and Lang has perhaps even inhaled, just a little,...

-
34-year-old After the birth of her first child, Rihanna rarely cooperates with the media's cameras.

In a previous post, Rihanna was given the title of national hero and is currently attending the inauguration of the Republic of Barbados' first president.

In addition, high-heeled sandals and diamond jewelry were worn by Rihanna to complete the outfit. The republic witnessed Sandra Mason's inauguration as the country's first president. She was the one who gave Rihanna the award recognizing her as a national hero of the Barbados Republic. Rihanna was exhorted by Mason to "keep glowing just as light." Rocky also flaunted a vibrant, edgy appearance during his performance. He is pictured donning a fluffy rainbow hat, fuzzy green sunglasses, and a white graphic T-shirt with plain green and navy pajamas. Since giving birth to the couple's kid two months ago, the "Love on the Brain" singer has made several public appearances. She was seen visiting the "Mexican Geniuses" exhibition last week while she was in London. In a picture uploaded to the exhibition's official Instagram account, Rihanna can be seen grinning and standing on a bench while wearing all-black clothing, including a flowing black shirt with lace trim and black pants with asymmetrical accents. In addition, she wore a long gold necklace and white sneakers to complement the monochromatic look.

-
He was tipped to be the next Richard Burton – but ended up as crossdressing Gunner Gloria in the now controversial sitcom. As his breakthrough classic returns to the screen, Hayes looks back One day in 1957, Melvyn Hayes was on the set of a film called Woman in a Dressing Gown when a man sat down next to him. “I was getting paid £5 a day and I’d been on location for three days,” the actor recalls. “All I had to do was walk up to a house and put a newspaper through a letterbox. That was my part. Finished. I said to this bloke, ‘I can’t believe the waste of money on this film. Take me. You could have got a newspaper boy on £1 a day to do what I’m doing.’ Then I said, ‘What do you do then, you lazy bugger?’ And he said, ‘I’m the producer.’” Hayes, now 89, giggles at the memory of the cheek of himself at 23. Back then, £5 a day was a decent whack. His first job in showbiz, in the early 1950s, was as assistant to The Great Masoni, a magician who tasked Hayes with “disappearing twice daily...
