The top mistakes in Valkyrie http://www.moviemistakes.com/film7079 en Sat, 21 Nov 2009 06:55:38 +0000 145693 Approximately three quarters of the way in to the film, there is a close up of a German soldier handing an officer a file of documents. The helmet that the soldier is wearing is a post war 1960s version. This can be determined by the lack of an air vent and rivet on the side of the helmet. 151656 Somewhere in the middle of the film a close-up of a map of Europe is shown. Obviously, it is a map made after 1945. The borders of Rumania, Hungary and Slovakia show this. 144715 When Colonel Claus von Stauffenberg is handing Adolph Hitler the amended Valkyrie folder to approve, Hitler reaches for it with his right hand as the movie switches to a wider shot, the passing of the folder is going into Hitler's left hand. 151508 In the scene where Hitler arrives in Russia the plane he arrives in is Ju-52. This is incorrect. The plane he actually flew in was an FW-200 Condor. Because the condor flew at a much higher altitude is one of the reasons the bomb failed to go off. 145074 When Stauffenberg is dressing himself after his injury where some fingers on one hand are amputated, and the other hand has been blown off completely. There is a close-up of his fully-fingered hand adjusting his collar.
