Even more accurate, in an easier role, is Victor Varconi. He thickened his eye brows, blended the mannerisms of a body guard and a devoted wife, became a dead ringer for Rudolf Hess. Luis Van Rooten's Heinrich Himmler is verisimilitudinous enough to make flesh crawl. Even when resemblances are not quite accurate, casting and the general performance are psychologically effective. Goring's jocund tigerishness is embodied by a bulky Hungarian named Alexander Pope. Martin Kosleck does not look much like Joseph Goebbels but manages to capture Goebbels' sidelong glide, his peculiar blend of cynicism and venom...
...armed intellectuals come to submit to the leadership of this raving dervish?" Some of them, says Heiden, did not submit; many of them openly and disrespectfully opposed him. But Hitler, like Roehm, Hess and Göring, was a "betrayed" soldier (and a brave one, Heiden insists); like Rosenberg and Goebbels, he was a frustrated man of questionable intellect.

He did not pay much attention to it at the time, believing it to be a dummy of some sort, but returned yesterday to investigate. Three Army men assisted him in dragging the corpse from the water, and then reported it to the Metropolitan Police, who notified the proper Army authorities...
...original discovery of the body on Sunday was entirely accidental. Hess went down to investigate several danger signs afloat out 20 or 30 feet in the water, and noticed what appeared to be the head of a dummy floating there. Further consideration aroused his curiosity and caused him to return yesterday. Evidently the corpse remained undiscovered because of its unobtrusive position submerged in the water about ten yards from shore...
