Movie Trivia/Goofs

→ View All
  • When Adolf Hitler signs the revised Valkyrie, the fountain pen clipped to Colonel Claus Schenk Graf von Stauffenberg's bag is a Pelikan M100, produced in Germany during World War II.
  • Movie Goof (revealing mistake): During the executions no bullet impacts are seen in the sand bank behind the victims having passed easily through the bodies at such short range.
  • Movie Goof (incorrectly regarded as a mistake): SPOILER: Just before Claus Schenk Graf von Stauffenberg is shot, Lieutenant Werner von Haeften jumps in front to shield him from the bullets and dies instead. While the powerful Karabiner 98 Kurz rifle that the execution squad is using can easily fire a bullet straight through the body of von Haeften, with more than enough momentum to kill von Stauffenberg, this scene is a true depiction of the event.
  • This movie actually has two official main titles. Firstly, the wording "Walküre" is shown. This title then dissolves into its English language equivalent, "Valkyrie". It could also be interpreted that the title is "Walküre - Valkyrie".
