You can stream Hitler's bodyguard (2010) on Amazon Prime with a subscription.

Adolf Hitler caused the deaths of fifty million people. An entire nation followed him to ruin. Over a tumultuous 12 years Adolf Hitler went from being a minor rabble-rousing politician, to supreme leader of Nazi Germany. He was hated by those he persecuted, and even by some of his own commanders - yet in twenty-five years no one managed to kill him. This program shows how Hitler's bodyguards helped him cheat death on many occasions. They expanded from a handful of thugs recruited to protect political meetings and fight opponents on the streets, to many thousands - including some of the most fearsome secret police and paramilitary forces the world has ever known.

Witness the chilling proximity of a man tasked with protecting the world's most hated dictator. This documentary peels back the layers of the Third Reich through the eyes of the soldier standing inches from the monster.
