"Der Untergang <http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0363163/>" a/k/a "Downfall."

It's Bruno Ganz as Hitler in this 2004 Best Foreign Film Oscar nominee.

The original is quite a gripping film about Hitler's last days in the
bunker, based loosely upon a true story by his secretary.

The clip has been used many many times on Youtube for a variety of scenes.
Like several others, this is a pretty funny take on what is really happening
in the film.

I saw about 3 different variants before deciding to actually find and watch
the entire film (which is nearly 3 hours long).  This scene comes fairly
early.

I don't speak German, so I can't say whether he's cursing, but he's just
found out
General Steiner is nowhere near Berlin, which is about to be overrun by the
Russian army.  It's supposed to be the moment he realizes the war is
essentially over.
