EVA BRAUN’S HOME MOVIES

Annotations by Geoffrey R. Walden

Notes:
Times (in hours:minutes:seconds) refer to running times on the 3-DVD set
- the one that reproduces the entire film set in the National Archives (see
below). The times are approximate, and will not match all DVD sets, due to
different production methods and different DVD timers.
As assembled from the separate film
spools found in 1945, the reels as they exist today are extremely jumbled –
films from the same day appear on several different reels. Additionally, the set
contains a film that was not one of Eva Braun’s (10 minutes at the beginning
of Reel 4). Most of the black and white footage taken by Eva Braun and her
friends appears to date from the war years, most of the color footage being from
the late 1930s.
Many of the people in these films
were Eva Braun’s family and friends – not Nazi notables, so difficult to
identify today. Eva Braun and her
sister Margarete (Gretl) can sometimes be difficult to tell apart in these
films, as they often looked very similar to each other. When they appear
together they can be told apart, but when they appear separately, it can be
sometimes difficult to say with certainty which it is. For still photos and
identification of personnel, see www.thirdreichruins.com/berghofvisitors.htm
. An identification of names is at the bottom of this page. For further identification of locations see www.thirdreichruins.com/bgaden.htm
and subpages.
