HITLER’S AMBITION IN HITLER: THE RISE OF EVIL MOVIE SCRIPT BY JOHN PIELMIER

Abstract

This research aims to find the personality aspects that influenced Hitler and the impact of his ambition. The study utilized Sigmund Freud's psychoanalysis theory, which includes the id, ego, and superego, to analyze Hitler's character. The research adopted a qualitative descriptive approach and primarily relied on the movie script Hitler: the Rise of Evil, directed by John Pielmeier, as the primary source. The findings of this study revealed that Hitler's ambition was attributable to his id, the primal and instinctual part of his personality. This driving force led to significant changes within the German state during Hitler's leadership. His ambition played a pivotal role in transforming Germany's political and social landscape. This research shed light on the psychological underpinnings of Hitler's ambition, offering insights into how personal characteristics profoundly impacted the story. Understanding the origins and consequences of Hitler's ambition is crucial for comprehending the complexities of his role in history and the devastating consequences of his actions during World War II.
