Trivia:
This movie was one of the few productions (besides several made in Russia and Yugoslavia) who took the time and the effort of duplicating WW2 German Tiger tanks. The only other American production who did this was Kelly's Heroes (1970), until Steven Spielberg did the same for his movie Saving Private Ryan (1998). moreGoofs:
Factual errors: Jan Kubis did not commit suicide in the basement. He died in the fight inside the main section of the church. moreQuotes:
[The last time they meet]Anna: I never did get that red dress.
Jan Kubis: And I never saw that football match.

Films like this go unheard of and are severely underrated. Various war movies of that genre have fallen out of favor among new audiences. May not be a bad thing, but nevertheless these are well made classics and they should be revisited once in a while.
