Question: Is the Spanish flag seen on the building in Huelva the accurate one used during Franco's regime or the modern one?
Answer: During Franco's reign, 1938 to 1977, the flag (Rojigualda) had a different coat of arms, the Eagle of St. John, with 'Una Libre Grande' inscribed. It changed in 1945 to a bigger eagle, overall covering some of the red bands of the flag, so, as this is 1943, from what one can see, the flag is correct in the film.
