9. APRIL - Trailer

[@OakhheartIX]

This movie introduced me to Danish cinema, which is excellent. Great actors, good writing. A cinema that is not very well known here in France but it should be !

[@charliejdk]

Salute and admiration from the United States. Denmark is fantastic.

[@markusschoening4914]

It's always interesting to see a WW2 movie that's not from the US/British or German perspective.

[@whatwedidwrong1977]

+Markus Schoening true

[@Wanderer628]

+Markus Schoening You barely see one from the British perspective either.

[@tron2007]

+Markus Schoening try this one "Fortress of War" 2010

[@OakhheartIX]

Indeed. And Danish, Swedish and Norwegian have an excellent cinema production both in movies and tv series which I recently discovered. They are good and I can't wait to watch this movie.

[@bre_adnan8404]

[@Foxrich99]

when the Bombers come in and they realise that they cant win, such powerfull scene

[@CEngelbrecht]

Me, I weep over the scene in Haderslev towards the end, where the big Danish soldier, which earlier complained he can't function without his morning coffee, they run past an old woman, who is serving coffee for the Danish soldiers, and he gets his coffee. That's my mother right there.

Riding bicycles to war like a true Dane

[@metalmadsen]

техаѕ we actually surpriced the Germans that they.

[@jonathanfedericogasperinik1183]

My grandfather told me a story from when he was 12. He was out playing with his friends in the morning when they saw all the soldiers riding bikes. They thought it was a lot of cyclist just riding in the morning. So they started talking to them. Then one soldier pulled out a machine gun and said "be quiet the germans are coming" but it didnt seem to bother them. They Played threw the whole invasion xD

[@DanishCamp]

Wow nice.

[@CEngelbrecht]

It may look ridiculous today, but bicycle troops back then was actually very cost effective infantry mobility, much cheaper than the horses of World War one, which might bolt as soon as they start shooting. Japan took large parts of China and South East Asia on bicycles. The British expected the Japanese to invade Singapore from the Sea, so all their big guns were aimed seawards. And the Japanese just pedalled up on their arse and took the city.

[@marclaplante5679]

The Swiss Army kept bicycle units until the turn of this century. I think the Finns still do. Fast movement on roads, no logistics required, silent, and soldier are able to carry weight other than on their shoulders. It makes all the sense in the world.

[@Soundwave3591]

for all those people putting down Denmark for "barely fighting" and all that...recall that the Danish Army-the entire army-was barely larger than a single German Division, and their total Air Force totaled some 25 planes. That they resisted at ALL is a sign of courage. The Danish government decided that, to avoid bloodshed in a battle they knew the Danes would lose in the end, not to mention that the German takeover was so quick Denmark didn't even have time of officially declare war, that it would be better to surrender. And In any case, there was resistance to the occupation, and it's worth noting that out of all the occupied countries only Denmark, from King Christian X on down, made an almost national effort to protect its Jews and see them to safety.

[@mattom1796]

Soundwave3591 Poland saved way more Jews even though it was punishable by death (in Denmark it wasn't)

[@lyndonweggery2725]

and I am proud of that given my danish ancestry on my mother's side.

[@alexander-it6mx]

Exactly, people should really watch this movie if they think Denmark didn't put up a fight.

[@DanishCamp]

Danish government send them out for slauther. They refused the army to prepare for war. Danish government actually dismissed 35.000 danish troops before the invasion. Hitler invaded with 40.000 troops. Denmark had some 7000 left. Makes you wonder.

[@hamawy33]

En premiere er jo en festdag, men den 9. april er ikke noget, man fejrer. '9. april' er ren fiktion. Hvis man lagde premieren den 9. april, ville nogle tro, at det var dokumentarisk.

People need to consider a few things, before they put Denmark down for their efforts. For example in 1940 the size of the entire Danish population was 3.8 million. The German population size in 1939 was 87.3 million.

[@FeedMeNuggets]

Meh. Ingen grund til at spille stor. Den altovermægelende faktor for at Danmark tabte så hurtigt som de gjorde, var at de danske generaler ikke gav tilladelse til at opstille en hær ved grænsen, fordi man simpelt hen var for bange for at optræppe en krig. Man var altså ikke parat til krig da tyskerne invaderede Danmark. Uanset denne faktor, så ville Danmark havde blevet knust.

[@Fractal227]

@@FeedMeNuggets Den eneste der spiller "stor" her er dig. Jeg er da enig i at Danmark lavede fejl som denne du nævner, men lige meget hvad Danmark havde gjort så ville vi have tabt. En enkel tysk panzer division var større end hele den Danske hær f.eks.

[@gg-no4gr]

This movie proves how crap they are most hollywood productions as far as WW2 is concerned, I love that in the movies they show that it's not all about winning or killing 500 "Nazis" as if it were a rambo. NO, this movie demonstrates the fear of war, a group of soldiers who do their best not to die and try to fulfill their duty with what little they have, damn, they only had bicycles !!. That's why this movie will always be on my list of recommended, as it reminds me a lot of good movies like Full Metal Jacket, Stalingrad, Remagen Bridge, A Bridge Too Far, etc. Movies that are worth, just for the simple fact of not being propaganda. Sorry if i had a bad english.

In this war the total Number of Danish Casualties where 16 killed Soldiers and 20 wounded soldiers.

[@agffans5725]

You need to understand that mainland Denmark (not including Greenland and the Faroe Islands) is tiny small and flat as a pancake ... also, Denmark had signed a deal to get tanks from England, but was attacked before they arrived ... so no tanks, no armored cars, and only a tiny small WW1 like air defense ... the only real highly reliable modern weapons were the Madsen machine gun (which then later was also used in the war by the Germans themselves). .. Still, 203 dead or wounded Germans plus 12 armored cars and 4 tanks (according to the only known official army report) and 16 killed and 21 wounded Danish soldiers and police border patrol, all listed by name and rank, unlike the German casualties, that were all suppose to be kept secret for propaganda reasons.

Well with a minimal army, very little in the way of heavy weapons, the entire country well within range of dozens of german airfields, and very little in the way of geography to aid in defense, you can't really do that much unless you really really want to see your country turned completely to ashes and are willing to accept a civilian casualty rate well above 20% of the population, and still only have the slimmest of chances of winning.

[@fingmoron]

They didn't spend money on development of their armed forces, they didn't think they'd need to.

[@vrenak]

True that there was not increased defense spending, But the thought was certainly not that the govt. didn't think it be needed, it was a combination of the defeat in 1864 still present in politics (it was until quite recently actually), the crisis of the 30's had taken resources to developing the social system and providing civilian jobs for the masses. And a policy of not provoking the germans by expanding the armed forces. denmark sits in a precarious position north of Germany, and does and did a lot of it's trade with Germany, The British though friendly and another vital trding partner for DK was across the sea and could not be expected to come to DK's defense in time, regardless of how much was invested in the armed forces.

Poland fell in six weeks. And lost upwards of 20% of its pre-1939 population after six years, a third of them Jews. Denmark lost 0.16% of its population by succumbing to being a "model protectorate", and less than 1% of their Jews perished. I do not know what the lesson is from that.

[@siriandersen9801]

How can you say this? I don't care how many your country lost. But Denmark lost 16 people in that fight. They died! How can you say that the danes are cowards, just because we didn't lost a thousand men? The danes had already been in a horrible war with many lost men (1864).

From 1912 to 1922 we have lost over 2 million and shrunk from 5 million square km to 700.000 square km Also in the last 30 years we have lost over 40.000 people at the war against terror. How many movies does it make for you?

+Dalton And do you believe in WW1 newspapers? In WW1 newspapers Wilhelm II reported dead and resurected 8 times in a row. All those newspapers and literature was allied propaganda. Winston Churchill lost launched the greatest navy invasion in the history has ever seen until that time in Gallipoli. We have fought nothing in our hands against the largest invasion fleet at the time and have won. Have you ever seen 500.000 troops rushing to invade your country with the highest tech dreadnoughts at the time? Danes has seen more wars than us? I believe you include bar fights as well because we have been conquering and building empires for the last 2.000 years and this is the smallest and weakest we have ever been. We are nomadic hunters you are settled gatherers My friend I acknoweldge the greatness of your country and culture in every aspect but your fighting skills

+Dalton Don't get me wrong I am not trying to insult Denmark. I am just saying that you don't need to appear something you are not. Scandinavians today have built countries so advanced that every other people could only dream of. Not Scandinavia but I have been to Netherlands twice and each time I said even after 1.000 years we wil never be as mentally advanced as these people. I assume Denmark is much better I respect your capabilities already but war is not your speciality. I have been a soldier and trust me it is not something you can easily get back from it unless you are mentally prepared by your culture

Never bring a bicycle to a tank fight

[@CEngelbrecht]

It's actually very cost effective mobility, much more economical than e.g. horseback. The Japanese took Singapore on bicycles. All the British big guns were aimed seawards, anticipating a naval invasion, but the Japanese army just pedalled up on their arse and took the city.

[@asgeiriversen3864]

hehe about 3-4 german soliders were killed in that attack. in the movie people is falling down as bugs

[@Gepedrglass]

It would seem that the amount of casualties on both sides aren't actually well known. Some historians say around 200 germans were killed, and others say fewer than 16. So who really knows?

[@asgeiriversen3864]

You dont have to get cocky. Norway fought more by itself than Denmark. We sinked an heavy cruiser, we sabotaged the heavywater transportation to germany, German lost the first battle of the war under the name of an Norwegian General.

[@asgeiriversen3864]

Norway didnt ask for help. neither did they yell for it, the Britts did this by their own will. Im tried of Danish nationalist trying to wrist history like you.

[@asgeiriversen3864]

Ignorant Dane. i have discussed against alot of people simlar to you. Please just be friends. i know its hard to accept that youre country fell in two days, and ours not before two months. Please read the history, and you will notice that Brits and French did invade to stop the germans. Norway didnt yell for help. Norway have won alot of wars, together with Denmark, when we were subjects. Im sorry, its hard to accept that youre time was back in the days of the musketts. I will tell you, that Norway have surpassed Denmark in the recent years. Better militaty, more happy, bigger, richer. I will not respond to another post of youre's becouse i dont waste my time on nationalists.

[@asgeiriversen3864]

They werent hiding. Norwegians used the terrain to their own advantage, while the brits just under estimated the german forces, and just pushed on. You should be sure of what youre writing, pal.

[@davidleon4338]

For me it was a waste of time to watch that movie

[@morjen01]

May be that your´e opinion. But the movie gives an fine and historically correct picture off the brief resistance of the Danish army when we were invaded by nazi-germany in 1940.

[@radking9854]

Why

[@westhamunitedreis4676]

lol country :D

Ærlig den dårligste ww2 film

[@radking9854]

Hvorfor den viser hvilken situation vi var i en rigtig lorte situation

[@andro7862]

Oh give me a break "heroic Danish soldiers fighting till the end" they resisted for just 2 hours! Just piss off, Denmark wasn't even an ally.

[@andro7862]

You can rage all you like, but we still won the war with no outside help whatsoever. At least we didn't sell our ass to the nazis like Denmark did.

[@andro7862]

I could name 10 battles against overwhelming odds in which the defenders didn't surrender in 2 hours like Denmark did. Here we go: Vukovar 1991, Dubrovnik 1991/92, Arnhem 1944, Audie Murphy in Italy, Alexandar Fadin in 1943 Ukraine, siege of Jadotville in Congo, Hill 3234, Hegra fortress in NORWAY, Alesia 52 BC, Thermopylae 480 BC, Kursk 1943, Operation Compass 1940 and so many more...

[@omarmaatoukk7853]

danmark is a small country and they do not have well equipment like the Germans they were facing the strongest army in europe at least they fought

[@DefenderOfChrist_]

@@andro7862 it’s not Selling Asses to nazis Denmark didn’t have any chance at all Nazi Germany were like 1000 times stronger
