CLIP DESCRIPTION:
The fates of Stauffenberg (Tom Cruise) and the others are explained -- executed, all of them.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
At the absolute height of World War II, German generals hatch a daring plan to assassinate Adolf Hitler and effectively render the German war machine impotent. Directed by Bryan Singer, Valkyrie stars Tom Cruise as Colonel Claus von Stauffenberg, the real-life mastermind behind the elaborate plot known as Project Valkyrie: a plan to assassinate Hitler and overthrow his government from the inside. Stauffenberg has been a loyal soldier and an asset to the Reich for his entire military career, but after losing an eye, a hand, and three fingers in an Allied bombing, he reaches a breaking point. The destructive madness that his country is unleashing on the world has become too terrible for the colonel to stand silent. He joins the resistance movement -- a treasonous act, punishable by death -- and risks his life and the life of his family for the chance to change history. Comprised of high-ranking officials working in secret, the German Resistance has access to the inner workings of the government and military, putting them in the perfect position to dispatch the dictator and then use his own official contingency plan to seize power -

“We must show the world that not all of us were like him”
Such a chilling quote

@@Atreus21 Something, something Joe Biden probably
And the judge was killed in an air raid not long after👍👍👍

Fun fact before filming the scene of firing squad executions at the Bendlerblock, Tom Cruise led the cast and crew in holding a moment of silence. For the respect for the place & those who were executed there.
Thats a nice Touch i didnt expect
I believe it was the director that did that.
This is no „fun“ fact. This is a fact of honor and respect
fun fact? you stupid man
Tom Cruise was led....he didn't lead it....

Why does it feel like deja vu?
So have your tried...you know....
Oh you mean sex? It didn’t work.
Well, how many times?
I’m not a Tom Cruise fan, but I’m glad he didn’t play this ultra stoic and calm. Despite accepting his fate, he’s still fidgety and nervous, but doesn’t break.
To be fair, Cruise has shown many times that he is, in fact, a true actor capable of displaying a very ranged performance. We are used to see Tom in the Mission Impossible movie and others action flicks
I'm not too fussed on Tom Criuse either....but damnit...he was excellent as Von Staffenberg.
He is basically Liam Neeson, they're amazing at acting and capable of acting as emotional characters, example is Oskar Schindler fro Schiendler's List
@@erichvondonitz5325 Christ that movie...
Is this because of cruise or is it a direction recommendation.
I LOVE how the Colonel is actually giving advice to his superior officer on how to face death "look them in the eyes" and I REALLY LOVE how the Colonel's lieutenant stands in the way of him and the firing squad. The Colonel had everything to lose (beautiful wife, beautiful children) yet he knew it all meant nothing if he allowed a monster like Hitler to continue. Some things are a matter of duty.
What a idiot
LOL. If the allies were also getting destroyed, there would have resistance movements within allied countries as well that would have tried to make the allies surrender quickly. It's only Germany lost that we agree with the victors.
Only because Germany was losing the war. He didn’t think hitler was a monster, in fact he fought for national socialism for many years.

Instead he was contacted in private by the SS who told him that he could commit suicide and the people would be told that he died in an accident and would be given a hero's burial, or he could face a pointless trial and die a traitor. He chose the former.

And a true story... Not added by the movie but fact

I know he did this....but I doubt he soaked up a dozen 8mm Mauser rounds. They'd have shot clean through. I wonder what the facts are?

I like this comment.
Severely underrated movie.
Word
200million at the box office for a budget of 75, and was given good ratings. No this movie isn't "underrated".
Yeah but Saving and Untergang get max plaudits
Bryon Letterman
70% of the box office is low educarion folks, people who would not understand half of this and many other movies.
Box office is in no way an indicator of movie quality, really cheap stupid movies almost always make box office numbers that are triple than excellent well played and complex movies.
Underrated film
1:25
The acting here is second to none in the entire film, you see stauffenberg's shock of fear, and the Major's complete surprise that the Lt. took the bullet with just a nod goodbye
Ah yes a man rdr2
Almost.... that 'major' leading the firing squad is a first lieutenant with the same rank as von Haeften.
Oberleutnant not Major
Still can't get over the fact that they think an 8mm won't go through flesh and hit the guy through him....
@@TheSwedishAssassin It's still very possible. It's not like the entire squad fired, it's just one soldier that fired
Tom brings such intensity with him. Even when he's not saying words, he's expressing a thousand feelings through his facial expressions. What a gem of an actor.
The guy who didn't even try to do a german accent while playing a german.
@@nowaynoways584
I'm about to blow your mind here, but the Germans didn't actually speak with Germans accents, they actually spoke a funny language called "German".
@@Henriburger1 What a stupid take. Are you expecting actors to speak the native language for a movie?
No, of course not you imbecile. For immersion sake, they typically mimic the accent the native citizens would have if speaking English.
Mind blowing, right?
@@Henriburger1 man, it sure did blow my mind to find out that german is actually just english with an american accent

Dying with dignity is a duel with swords.
@@Michael-mh2tw Yeah. Him pulling his jacket down was making sure it was proper before his death. Him shaking his head was shaking the nerves and fear off.
@@Rzo139 well said
Great comment. Those two simple gestures i.e the jacket being proper and ready like you’re about to meet somebody for the first time and the shaking of the head like your preparing mentally.. the actors in this did such a fine job this film deserves way more awards but because it teaches men how to be men and not females the media won’t want it doing so well.
"The world needs to know that Not all of us were like him" very true. People think of germans during 1945 and they immediately think of hitler, evil, concentration camps etc. But rarely do they realize there were some really good people during those times
Emil: It doesn't matter, they were the crumbs of the cake, hardly significant. It's good that they did their part, but not enough to make it noticeable. Hitler's reputation was too well known.
you yourself are quite right my brother, not all of us were like he himself being of the male, or female person of adolph hitler, or them being of those other nazis, or national-socialists, but were much more like mr. tom cruise's male character in the movie-flick of 'valkyrie', ...
विनी शर्मा most if the soldiers just fought for their country, they simply did their job. The higher ranking Nazi officers were the problem
Emil some...
Emil A lot of those soldiers and Nazi personel are fed with propaganda for years, and some were brainwashed if I recall correctly. They thought they done the right thing, most of them aren't even realize.

Schindler’s list: A small pile of hinges....
Hold my pistol.
That part when Stauffenberg's friend Lieutenant Haefte walks in front of him to take the bullets in order to give him a few more moments of life as a gesture of friendship, and loyalty is very touching. I don't know why, but it makes me think back to Joan Of Arc's execution where she was burned at the stake, and imagine one of her followers doing something like that. Imagine if right after they lit Joan's pyre, one of Joan's friends/followers suddenly walked up, and climbed onto it, choosing to burn with her so that she won't have to die alone...
I think he did as a last gesture of respect and it reassure Stauffenberg that he had no regrets about being part of the plot.
@@swanbe01 I know.
@@sgauden02 I understand it from a drama perspective, but knowing that those bullets would pass straight through, soaking Stauffenberg with blood, and then also kill him it just makes it less impactful for me. But I'm not demanding *total* realism from a movie.
@@jimzeez Except that this part REALLY happened. Stauffenberg's friend really did stand in front of him.

I like the fact that the Germans recognized later What Von Stauffenberg did. It's amazing what happened during the final days of the war. So many important things unknown to most people

Cruise needs to do more movies like this. Men of purpose who don't always win in the end but prove their value to humanity above most others. He should also do more complex villains like his role in "Collateral".
Tom didn't play the villain in Collateral. Collateral is one of those sad movies where the good guy loses, but most people are too ignorant to realize who the good guy is.

Damn
Lmao bill nigty, i know right
This movie was criminally underrated, and not just among the Biopics or History or War genres, in general. The meticulous care and detail that went into every uniform, every weapon, every detail of set and background. Even the careful recreation of this scene according to the historical accounts of it was down to the detail (i.e. Werner von Haeften, the Lt. aide to Stauffenberg really did jump the line and shield Stauffenberg in a final act of defiance and show of loyalty). I mean when you get a free second look at the Wikipedia page for this movie and hover your mouse over the actors and their real life counterparts, some of them are uncanny, not just Tom. Without a doubt though, Bill Nighy stole this film, his performance as Olbricht was phenomenal. The critical reception of this film and it's lack of awards is just criminal.
But there was some lapse in the most iconic scene in this movie where colonel meet hitler in berhdof..hitler siting reich marshal goring as invasion is undercontrol is not correct.
RIP those brave men who stood against evil
TheRomanianCynicist I never implied it was, using the ">" with the quotes is just a way of replying.
He was a royalist. He neither liked the Weimar republic or the nazi regim.
How is that worse than hitlers planned suicide for the country?
+TheCynic You communist idiot.... no they weren't. A true national-socialist doesn't condemn the nazis' cruelties, don't question hitler. Which is what Stauffenberg and his men did, and they were proposing for WORKING TOGETHER with the good side, to make a strong, safe and democratic Europe by negotiation with the Allied Forces of the GOOD side, the Brits, Americans, French, and so on. A nazi would NEVER do that.
That traitor was Hitler himself with his GREAT strategic decisions.

This guy is completly right, everything he said there happened.

Let's smash
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
This was pretty huge issue during production in Germany. Basically everyone was against it. From politicians to even Stauffenberg's son and grandson. They didn't want him to play the role but then they all changed tunes. They probably bribed them for sure.
"Long live sacred Germany" 🤡
Just finished watching this movie. This is so underrated. Crying my eyes out during these scene. The actors were great here.
Is it just me that gets the feeling that this movie is somewhat underrated?
R.I.P. All who perished in their fight against Nazi Germany
yeah. I'll admit that I don't like Tom cruise's movies but he did a good job here
They were still Nazis they just wanted to get rid of Hitler to replace him with another dictator just not as oppressive
+Ante Ćubelić maybe so and they did indeed want to shut down all those camps and open peace negotiations with the allies of America and British while still wanting to fight the USSR which I think we should've allied with Hitler first destroy Stalin then turn on Hitler
They were Germans..
The Nazis were politicians in charge of Germany
Not just you dude. This movie was genuinely awesome. It didn't get the credit or deserved. And after being to the Resistance Memorial where this was filmed it makes the movie even more awesome.
Why aren’t we taught about these brave men in school? I’m 24 and this is literally the first and only time I’ve ever heard of them. These men need to be honored. The men that stood up and said ‘we are not all like them!’
In the UK it is part of our curriculum if you are taking GCSE History no matter what courses you will likely learn about plans to kill Hitler.
@Michael Martin who are referring coward to?
Indeed, and while they'd be at perhaps they might also shed some light on the hundreds of thousands (more?) German civilians who did realise their mistake in ever supporting Hitler but couldn't do much about it because as it was too late to resist. And whose voices were never heard. It's one thing to sacrifice your own life for a cause you believe in, but quite another to have your family be deported too. It's where most normal people certainly draw the line. Add to that the horrors inflicted upon civilians by the advancing Red Army. That's a bad situation to be in and probably be enough cause for many a man today to fight on, regardless of politics. Why is everything always reduced to right and wrong? Life is never that simple. It's for reasons like this that history repeats itself, because we teach our children a lame, fairytale version of what really transpired.
While Operation Valkyrie was the biggest planned assassination of Hitler and the only one involving the use of the reserve army, it was only one of many attempts.
I’m German and we got taught about Stauffenberg

Absolutely fantastic movie, and terribly underrated. It definetly didn't get the marketing attention nor the praise it deserved. They stayed so true to the characters and created a really dynamic and exciting movie from something that is basically a political movement, while staying true to the history. In the scene where the guy goes in front of the firing squad, I admit that at first I was like "oh come on, this is cheesy" but right after the movie I did my research, and it's actually something tht really happened, and so the "Long live sacred Germany" part.
long live sacred germany
What people don't realise is that most of what happens in fiction has actually happened before or is happening or can happen
What's interesting is watching Downfall right after this movie.
Underrated by who? This is one of the most famous scenes in a war film in the last 30 years.
Stayed with the characters? It's absolutely unrealistic movie, except maybe scene where they tried bombed Hitler. Tom Cruise character wasn't so good guy, he liked ideas about suprime German race, etc, just he thought its time to make a peace and make more convenient peace for Germany.
This part always makes me cry

You are a true hero when you raise your voice and do something in the time of despair and opression. Rest in peace Stauffenberg.
Fun Fact: After filming this execution scene, Tom Cruise invited the all the actors in the firing squad out to Chipotle.
Germany has a chipotle? Is it as good as it is in the States?
They didn’t expect any mercy, just like Americans founding fathers knew that signing the Declaration of Independence was also like signing their own death warrant if they lost.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Germany wasn’t the true enemy. Hitler and his followers were.
Colonel stauffenberg was a true hero. An inspiration to all. Respect for from the boys in the British army.
This scene was done so well!
" The world needs to know that Not all of us were like him " . . .
Such a chilling scene. It seemed like Stauffenberg hadn't processed the reality of what he was facing until after Haeften takes the bullet for him. His tension on his face ratchets at that point, up toward the end. And then, how the music is cut--killed, in a way--by the final gunshot.
"People will know we put our principles above personal gain"
There is a plaque dedicated to the 4 of them on the site where they were executed... it’s the only memorial Germany has ever built for German soldiers who fought in WW2
And that's really sad.
Dexter cochran Why’s it sad? They deserved it
Pope Mcgrope While I agree to an extent, a lot of these guys were at least complacent when it comes to genocide on a massive scale. Maybe if I was in the same situation as them I would’ve done the same thing, but I wouldn’t want a statue up for me.
it's good that germany has refrained from raising any other memorials, such is the nature of atonement
@@andrewroberts7428 Honestly take a good hard look at the world and the history of the last 200 years. Germany has payed the price over and over again, they reacted in the most human way to their situation. There was no "good" and "evil" side in WW2. All sides were wrong and to blame in some way. Germany was the one country that was significantly changed for the better after the war though. So despite how the US and the allies fought Germany and decided they were the greatest evil, they've since became probably the best country in the world. Definitely not the strongest though. Just saddens me that the US continues to allow russia, the middle east, and China to exist. Nobody has the balls to do what's necessary for world peace.
i was actually there when this was shot. besides that fact that this is a movie it transports a very strong emotion, also because it was shot at the "bendlerblock" where stauffenberg was acutally executed. to it's on stauffenbergstrasse in berlin.
Such an excellent and underrated film.
You people use underrated way to much. Every film has a underrated comment. Read the reviews first which are all great and you will see it got high ratings and recommendations. Tom cruise is a great actor but many people are against his scientology beliefs so they don't watch his films anymore.
"We had to show the world not all of us were like him.
2:01 I swear thats the same guy who played von Richtofen in The Red Baron
It is.
He is. He's called Matthias Schweighöfer, a famous actor in Germany
As someone who’s really interested into WW2 stuff this scene made me tear.
Another really messed up part of these executions is that when they executed Stauffenberg’s brother, they hung him by piano wire until he barely stopped breathing. He was then lowered, resuscitated, then re hanged over and over again. This was filmed for Hitler to watch later.....
Imagine actually believing this lmaoooo
I don’t think Hitler would have that much time in his hands.
Lmao bs story
sure bro lmao
Check out Wikipedia on this incident. Absolutely true story.
The judge portrayed in the courtroom was a particularly nasty man, Roland Freisler. If it makes you feel better, that very building collapsed on him and killed him during an allied bombing raid about 6 months after this trial.
One of the most powerful movie scenes I’ve seen.
This movie is so under appreciated. It has star power with actors such as Tom Cruise, Bill Nighy, Terence Stamp, Tom Wilkinson, who were all incredible. The music is incredibly moving. And for a Hollywood movie, it's historically accurate based on first-hand accounts, photos, newsreels, Gestapo and SS records, and talks with the actual families of the conspirators. It's a great story that has to be told.
"If a soldier in a position of highest authority in such times sees his duties and tasks only within the limits of his military responsibilities, without consciousness of his higher responsibility to the whole people, then he shows a lack of greatness, a lack of comprehension of responsibility. Extraordinary times demand extraordinary actions."
- Ludwig Beck
What makes it more underrated is that there is a German version of this plot which doesn't come close to being anywhere near as good or accurate.
It's so amazing that they were able to film this in the exact location where those men were really executed
The manner Herr Major Remer looks up at General Fromm after it is all over is ominous.
Much of the movie takes place in the offices of Bendlerblock which served as the offices for the military operations of the Third Reich's military command. The courtyard of Bendlerblock is where Colonel Claus Schenk Graf von Stauffenberg and the other conspirators were executed. Some of the filming of the movie took place at the actual building. This building is now the Memorial to the German Resistance (German: Gedenkstätte Deutscher Widerstand). The statement in the final slide of the movie is from a plaque near the site of execution at the Memorial.
Stauffenberg to Olbricht: "Steady, and die bravely."
Also Stauffenberg: *loses his cool*
R.I.P all who died.
I'm glad at the end the movie mentions there were several assassination attempts on Hitler by Germans. Many happened before Germany began to lose and even before the war even began.
Some genuine man love,
Don't think I've ever cared for someone-not-family enough to take their place in front of a firing squad to purchase them a few more seconds of life.
0:47, what a way to go. Not only will you be suffocating to death by hanging (which in itself is extremely painful), but the wire will also be cutting your throat, just compounding the agony.

May your soul Rest In Peace Claus von Stauffenberg. 😢
it Secret Germany not sacred lol
@@anxietydisorders5917 its sacred
The general was a devout catholic
@@eugenlovin6788 dude stauffenberg was a member of the group called "secret germany" 🙄
0:30 Dr Schenck no!!!
(Only a true researcher in the arts of downfall would know who this character is)
Oh yes, Christian Berkel who plays both German characters in Downfall and Valkyrie.
This is what true patriots look like. Not allegiance to one man but to your country and its people
And now the German people are being replaced by a communist government and their national sovereignty is challenged.
@@benharrison3479 lmfao sir what. Germany is as strong and prosperous as ever. Strongest economy in all of Europe, one of the most respected countries in production and export, extremely high standard of living, highly functioning social safety net and employment etc etc. You're just mad that 10% of the population is non-white lmfao and for that you say their "national sovereignty" is being challenged?
@bob yob do they speak english? Or have murica laws... thanks god we don.t.
@@benharrison3479 That's because their leaders are not loyal to their country, but are pretty loyal to money, Power, EU and UNO.
I am a German/Bavarian decent it's very extremely for me too watch it, almost impossible to see them suffered that way. Anyway it's part of German history, in Germany they're considered to be heroes to stand up Hitler Germany.
Agreed!!👍
Only people from Bavaria like to form their own identity. It reminds me of people from Texas in America
@@4realjacob637 nothing wrong having an identity
The place where they filmed this, is the same place where Stauffenberg and company was executed

No one actually cares. They only start caring if it doesn't benefit themselves.
Uhhh Ghandi was Hitler friend. They wrote each other letters...
@@hanhdhsj where did u read this
@@hanhdhsj That letter is in history textbooks of India, they were not friends but Gandhi tried to stop the war
@@hanhdhsj Gandhi wrote letters to Einstein.
POV: you forget to put in minecraft after planning to make a thermonuclear weapon
Pov: conversation with the boys becomes public
I simply cannot get myself to watch this scene without emotions overcoming me and resulting me in tears.
I remembered that the Chief of Berlin Police was also executed on the DVD version , but he isnt shown up in this clip .
Fun fact: Goerdeler being hung by piano wire was on purpose to prolong his pain since the neck won't break.
I refuse to live under the mercy of people who would kill me if they had the chance. I will not live in fear.
Beautiful scene, beautiful movie.
It's always a good thing when people stand up to tyranny, even if they were those who helped it happen.
Progress is a positive thing.
In today's world, the people in Russia protesting against war on Ukraine and is stand up to Putin's Tyranny.
Tyranny?!
This scene at the end makes me cry and proud even that I am not German - what kind of people there were in their time. It's hard to even imagine now.
A deep bow for these heroes!
Great movie. ❤️
you are not german but you can be zionist or you are zionist
I’m a RuZZian ❤️
I am from Pakistan but that *LONG LIVE SACRED GERMANY* made me a Patriot German for 10 solid minutes.
I still am.
An Indian and a Pakistani we can be friends as Patriots to sacred Germany brother.
The little extra sadistic touch of executing them one-by-one instead of all at once. Just so that the last moments of those who weren’t the first to go would be fearful of their coming fate.
1:54 Erwin von Witzleben was very close with his prediction, a hero and a prophet in this scene.
I, as a German, have to say that I am amazed and ashamed watching this... It is a history changing moment that we all know about.
Gotta love Tom Cruise one handing that fire fight near the end like a boss tho. 😂
I can't believe this along with the dark knight both came out in 2008.......and least of all during the summer. 😔
One minute of silence for this heroes🌹
