Quotes
-
Joseph Goebbels : Actors are like children, dumb but lovely.
-
Ferdinand Marian : Nobody would buy this role from me. My audience doesn't want me to see that way.
Joseph Goebbels : Ah, so your audience doesn't want you to see that way? Well, Who casts you for your rolls, my dear Marian? The audience or me?
Ferdinand Marian : Believe me there are thousands of better actors. I usually play sensualists, symphatic bon vivants.
Joseph Goebbels : So, your Jago was a symphatic bon vivant.
Ferdinand Marian : No, but it was Shakespeare...
Joseph Goebbels : [interrupts and shouts] ... and I am Joseph Goebbels. You actors demand every help from us and we pay you more than our greatest scientists. But if we need something from an actor once, he thinks: "No, I can't play Jew Suess, because then I can't go to Hollywood. Then the jews over there won't engage me anymore".
Ferdinand Marian : But Herr Minister, please, that's not the point!
Joseph Goebbels : QUIET!
-
Joseph Goebbels : [to Ferdinand Marian] It's your choice: either known, popular, famous or missed, lost, forgotten. I could squeeze you like a fly, Marian.
-
Joseph Goebbels : [to Veit Harlan] I want a artistic movie, not a cheap propaganda.
-
Veit Harlan : [discussing a movie scene] Aren't you worried, Herr Minister, that the audience would go on the side of Suess, when he says the line with such majesty?
Joseph Goebbels : Oh no, why? The jew must be a human being, not a monster. Otherwise everyone will think "What a cheap propaganda!"
-
Joseph Goebbels : Krauss, I think, your idea, to play all the jewish minor roles, is a brilliant idea.
Werner Krauss : But I through, you're against double roles.
Joseph Goebbels : That's right, I sure am. But I'm also against harping on about principles.
[to Harlan]
Joseph Goebbels : Because this, my dear Harlan, is a perfect oppertunity to show, that all jewish characters and temperaments are originally from the same source.
-
Joseph Goebbels : Isn't it irony of destiny: In German movies, the Jews are portrayed by Arian actors, but in the American ones, the national socialists are played by Jewish immigrants?
-
Joseph Goebbels : To 1940. And may God punish England!
-
Magda Goebbels : [Helga asks for wine] No kid, there is alcohol in it.
Joseph Goebbels : Come on, Magda, as an exception. Helga is our olders, after all.
Helga Goebbels : Thanks, daddy.
Magda Goebbels : Paul, even the Fuehrer doesn't drink alcohol.
Helga Goebbels : But you do.
