A little taste

Last time Mark(100 things we learned from film) was on, we talked about Thatcher, this time it's amazingly someone even worse than Thatcher. In fact, we're having a hard time trying to figure out who could be worse than this guyBased on the award-winning, bestselling book ‘At the Wolf’s Table’ by Rosella Postorino, The Tasters reconstructs the true story of the women coerced into being food tasters for Adolf Hitler towards the end of World War II.In 2012, at the age of 95, a woman named Margot Wölk revealed that she had been one of the young German women forced to taste Hitler's meals at his hiding spot known as the 'Wolf's Lair'. Until then, no one had ever known about the existence of the food tasters and Margot Wölk was the only one among them to survive the end of the war. Her story inspired Rosella Postorino to write At the Wolf’s Table, which in turn inspired the script for The Tasters.Directed by Silvio Soldini (Days and Clouds, Two Lives), The Tasters stars Elisa Schlott (Our Miracle Years, The Empress), Max Riemelt (Sense8, Two To One, Berlin Syndrome) and Alma Hasun (The Glory of Life, Corsage).LINKS AND STUFFMark and his 100 thingsTotalCultZone.com for the Total Cult [email protected] - To Direct message without that social media guffBuy me a coffee get access to the super secret Total Cult Club, includes uncut episodes and occasional bonus pods with catsMusic;Tatami: Midnight DriveMusic from #Uppbeathttps://uppbeat.io/t/tatami/midnight-driveLicense code: I27A9WQID9MEZUKO Hosted on Acast.
