- fabulous movie
- "Des Teufels General" - Devil's genral - is a drama in three acts. The story line is situated on the background of the ending of World War II.
GENERAL PLOT General Harras, the protagonist, has served well for the German airforces since 1914. He had recognized that he Nazi-leadership he always worked for has chosen the wrong way for Germany and led it into a cruel war against long odds. He therefore started a resistance movement which mainly is based on aircraft-sabotage. During act one to three, he struggles with the GeStaPo and especially with his antagonist Dr. Schmidt-Lausitz who wants to blow Harras' cover.
Zuckmayer always takes some time for little sub-plots, which are evolved during long dialogues. Topics are for instance loyalty, heroism and aspects of the Nazi-Regime.
Probably one of the most famous scenes is at the end of act three, when Harras is about to flee the GeStaPo Harras gives his young friend, Hartmann, a small, silver pocket watch, saying "Souvenir".
