Valkyrie. Go see it. No, seriously. GO SEE IT.

The wonderful and dear quigonejinn was here for Christmas. And so, fulfilling a year-long dream, we went to see Valkyrie together the day after Christmas. We both went in with low expectations. Not only were neither of us fans of Tom Cruise, but we were worried about how historically accurate it would be ( Read more... )

Was it really worth seeing? Me and my ex-husband take our Stauffenberg pretty seriously, so I've been doubtful about the film.

It really was. Go see it.

I take Stauffenberg and Nazi history very seriously. It was my what my history degree was concentrated on. The movie does great justice to Stauffenberg and the other conspirators. It's about time this story gets told to the American audience.

Go with an open mind and see it.

I was responsible for the Afrika scene in the beginning and the Euro set guy was a friend of mine from Sweden.
You KNOW I take my Nazis seriously.

Wow, that's great! You and your friend certainly did a great job, then. :)

In the past, I've read in your LJ about you doing things like this. Do you work for a sort of historical consulting company? Or are you free lance? (says the history graduate looking for a job)

Furthermore, do you have any stories about the work on the movie to share? :)
