...know how much I love children . . . But I have to deny myself this happiness. I have another bride--Germany! I am married: to the German Volk. " This high-minded sentimentality contrasts grotesquely with private reality. The extent of Hitler's love affair with his niece Geli Raubal may never be clear, but there is enough evidence to indicate that his half sister's 23-year-old daughter was not happy with her Uncle Adolf's attentions. In 1931 Raubal shot herself through the heart. Hitler attended the autopsy, and Wagener notes that from that moment his boss became a vegetarian...
...hard to imagine Adolf Hitler as a sex symbol. Yet during the '30s, he set many a Madchen's heart aflutter. Unfortunately for them, the Fuhrer was already smitten by a saucy teenager named Angelika Raubal, daughter of his half-sister. Hansen's fictional tour de force sticks to the historical record, but what may or may not have been said or done in private is of necessity impure fiction--dramatizations of Hitler as a sexually disabled masochist are graphic and over the top. Still, this is a painless way to learn a little history and enjoy such priceless dialogue...
Among the others swept away were two pretty frauleins. One was Hitler's unstable niece Geli Raubal, the only woman he ever truly loved. It was a sad and unfulfilled affair. On a September evening in 1931, after an argument with & her uncle, Raubal fatally shot herself. He had only one subsequent lover, a young blond named Eva Braun. In 1932, frustrated by Hitler's inattention, she also aimed a pistol at herself, but the attempt failed. Nearly 13 years later, under Berlin's streets, the drama would be eerily restaged when Hitler took Braun for his bride, 40 hours...
...woman claimed to have shared a perverse relationship with Hitler: his niece, Geli Raubal. Their liaison caused much gossip and ended in Geli's mysterious death-perhaps by her own hand, perhaps by Hitler's. At least one other woman admitted to firsthand experience of Hitler's masochism, though in a less extreme form. The actress Rene Mueller told her director that on an evening when she had expected to have intercourse with Hitler, he instead threw himself on the floor, begged her to kick him and became excited when she finally complied. Rene later killed herself...
Only two women had emerged with any clarity from Adolf Hitler's shadowy private life: his youthful niece, Geli Raubal, and Eva Braun. Both died violent deaths. When last March Hitler's sister, Paula Wolf, casually mentioned to a German reporter that she had recently visited with "perhaps the only woman my brother ever loved," Günter Peis's news instincts were understandably aroused. The woman turned out to be Maria Reiter, blonde, buxom and 49, now living quietly in a Munich suburb. Reluctant at first, Maria finally gave Peis the long-kept secret...
