Revealing mistake: When the Remagen bridge is bombed, it is obvious that the bomber planes shown have been taken from several shots (possibly also from an earlier film) and the shots were superimposed. Also, the bombers appear transparent, and the background sky's color is unnaturally strong, too.

Major Paul Kreuger: I understand the Russians are at the Elbe.
Gen. Von Brock: Yes.
Major Paul Kreuger: And here?
Gen. Von Brock: Worse. Utter confusion. Every day I get orders to attack with divisions that no longer exist. Hitler still thinks he's winning the war.
Major Paul Kreuger: The Army helped bring Hitler into power. Are you saying we made a mistake?
Trivia: The German actors Hans Christian Blech, Peter van Eyck, Heinz Reincke, and Richard Münch are no strangers to war movies: all of them have also appeared in 'The Longest Day', as Major Werner Pluskat, Oberstleutnant (Lt. Col.) Ocker, Oberst (Col.) der Luftwaffe 'Pips' Priller, and General Marcks, respectively.
