Throughout World War II, Hitler often compared himself to Frederick the Great. British-American historian Gordon A. Craig relates that to help legitimize Nazi rule Propaganda Minister Joseph Goebbels commissioned artists to render fanciful images of Frederick, Bismarck, and Hitler together to postulate a historical continuum between them. Hitler kept an oil painting of Anton Graff's portrait of Frederick (see top of page) with him to the end in the "Führerbunker" in Berlin. Frederick's reputation was sharply downgraded after 1945 in both East and West Germany. His diminished legacy in Germany was due in part to the Nazis' fascination with him, to say nothing of his supposed connection with Prussian militarism. Nonetheless, nowadays Frederick is generally held in high regard, especially for his statesmanship—and for his enlightened reforms that positively changed not only Germany, but European society in general, allowing German intellectuals to assert that the revolutions in both France and America were to some extent "belated" attempts to "catch up with Prussia". In the 21st century, his reputation as a warrior remains strong among military historians. Historians in general continue to debate the issue of continuity versus innovation. How much of the king's achievement was based on developments already under way, and how much can be attributed to his initiative? How closely linked was he to the Enlightenment? Is the category of "enlightened absolutism" still useful for the scholar? King of Prussia, Pennsylvania, is named after the King of Prussia Inn, itself named in honour of Frederick. "The Great King" () is a 1942 German drama film directed by Veit Harlan and starring Otto Gebühr. It depicts the life of Frederick the Great. It received the rare "Film of the Nation" distinction. Otto Gebühr also played the King in many other films. In the 2004 German film "Der Untergang" ("Downfall"), Adolf Hitler is shown sitting in a dark room forlornly gazing at a painting of Frederick. This is based on an incident witnessed by Rochus Misch. The 2012 German made-for-television film "Friedrich – ein deutscher König" ("Frederick – a German King") starred the actresses Katharina Thalbach and her daughter Anna Thalbach in the title roles as the old and young king respectively. Frederick has been included in the "Civilization" computer game series, the computer games "Age of Empires III", "Empire Earth II", "", and the board games "Friedrich" and Soldier Kings.
