...nostalgia to the Lips’ psychedelic flavor, but there’s nothing subtle about the ’70s references on “Mystics.” Both “The Wizard Turns On” and “Pompeii Am Götterd??mmerung” would have settled comfortably into the middle of Pink Floyd’s “Dark Side of the Moon,” and songwriter and vocalist Wayne Coyne mimics McCartney pop on the closing “Goin’ On.” However...
What's perhaps most striking about Downfall is how profoundly everyone in the bunker loves death. Hitler, naturally, thinks the Germans have betrayed him and is willing to let them all die in a great Gtterd??mmerung while he passes out poison capsules to his circle. This leads to the most horrifying sequence in the film: Magda Goebbels, wife of the notorious Propaganda Minister, poisoning all six of her children because she does not want them to grow up in a world without National Socialism. This act, a blend of romantic and ideological fervor, is almost unbearable to witness...

We have only eight liters [about two gallons] of water and five cans of mango juice." Then the little VW stalled, and eight miles farther on the Micro...
Gustaf De Loor, a new Dutch tenor, and Ludwig Hofmann, a German bass-baritone, sang in Die Gtterd??mmerung. Tenor De Loor gave a stodgy, dark-toned impersonation of Wagner's youthful Siegfried. Hofmann's Hagen might have seemed deeply sinister if mighty Michael Bohnen had not sung the same role so recently, in the same black cape, the same black-winged helmet...
