In 1942, in Bavaria, Eva Braun (Yelena Rufanova) is alone, when Adolf Hitler (Leonid Mozgovoy) arrives with Dr. Josef Goebbels (Leonid Sokol) and his wife Magda Goebbels (Yelena Spiridonova) and Martin Bormann (Vladimir Bogdanov) to spend a couple of days without talking politics. What a great deception this "Molokh" is ! Winner of the Golden Palm in screenplay in Cannes Festival, I really expected a great film. However I found a very boring and pretentious movie, too much slow paced and going nowhere. The title refers to an evil divinity adored by ancient pagan cultures, and shows a ridiculous Hitler in his intimacy with Eva Braun, his hypochondria and crazy speeches about human races, life and death, and a rebel Eva Braun being the unique person to contest his words. I did not like this fictional movie, the story, the screenplay, the direction and the performances. My vote is three.
Title (Brazil): "Moloch"
