Blind Spot: Hitler’s Secretary / Im toten Winkel – Hitlers Sekretärin / Austria / 2002
Watching Downfall, which includes an excerpt from Blind Spot at the very end, prompted me to rent this one. As the title indicates, the subject of the film is Traudl Junge, the young woman who naively ventured into Hitler’s bunker in 1942 to work as his personal secretary. Now in her 80s, Junge pleads ignorance about the concentration camps but still expresses deep regrets over her role in the Third Reich. In fascinating detail, she recounts the warm working relationship she had with Hitler, and how she has spent the ensuing years trying to reconcile that with the genocidal megalomaniac the rest of the world has come to know.
