I found this especially interesting:

"Also helping Bruno Ganz in preparing for the role was the unique, only known recording of Adolf Hitler when he held a private conversation with Field Marshal Gustaf Mannerheim of Finland (WWII ally of Germany against Soviet). Hitler unexpectedly showed up to congratulate Mannerheim on his 75th birthday on June 4, 1942. Finnish intelligence agents secretly made the recording in a train wagon (Hitler did not allow recordings nor photographs to be taken in private). Some 11 minutes of the recording feature relaxed, normal-tone talk in which Hitler generally describe his views about the war. His speech is "working class language" and his turns of phrase reflect the speaker's educational shortcomings. One of two copies of the tape was discovered in 1992 and has since been studied by scientists and historians
