Did You Know?
| Trivia | Stefan Lux was a Jewish Czech journalist, who committed suicide in the general assembly room of the League of Nations during its session on July 3, 1936, to alert the world on the perils of German anti-Semitism. After shouting "C'est le dernier coup" ("This is the final blow") he shot himself with a revolver. See more » |
| Goofs | At the end of the film, on the screen we read that Gerstein's written testimony helped to validate the events of the Holocaust. Then, "Kurt Gerstein was rehabilitated 20 years later." He could not have not been "rehabilitated", since he was found hanged in his cell in 1945. "Rehabilitated" should have been "exonerated". See more » |
