The corporation I worked for was forcing us to take training I did not need and could not in conscience perform. I was near retirement and I could have retired but I didn't want to quit in the face of their despotism. They fired me. I ended a 40 year highly productive career as a software engineer in this gloomy way. I knew it was the right thing to do. This film makes me feel a lot better about it.

"For us the war lasted exactly 2 hours." Did Steinbeck write that? In fact, in the first battle, the Nazi invasion fleet was defeated in the Battle of Drobak Sound. The Norwegian fort on the fjord, Oscar Fortress, sank the Nazi flagship. Then the Nazi used the Luftwaffe and ground troops to capture Oslo. But the delay allowed the government to escape capture and after fighting for 2 months, it escaped to Britain. Furthermore, the Norwegian merchant marine still existed and was important for supplying the Allies during the war.

Well, there's no mention of Norway in the novel, but in the movie (in the making of which he was not involved) I guess they had to pick a country and, since the novel (and the subsequent play) were well received in Norway and by their king in exile, it was the most obvious choice.

The really sad thing about this is that Germany only invaded Norway because Britian had invaded first. England was trying to keep the Swedes from shipping iron ore to Germany through the Norwegian port of Narvik. England and France mined the Norwegian coast which brought on the German invasion. Weather Norway would have stayed neutral is only conjecture. Sweden was able to stay neutral because they did not have the long coastline into the North Sea and North Atlantic that Norway did so as long as Germany held Norway they had no reason to take Sweden.

' The coincidence of Allied and German forces heading toward Norway at exactly the same time reinforced the myth of Hitler's "intuition" and gave rise to the post hoc, ergo propter hoc argument that WESERUEBUNG was forced on Germany by the aggressive intentions of the Allies. Actually there is no evidence that Hitler knew of WILFRED or Plan R 4, and it appears highly unlikely that he would have risked his Navy in Norwegian waters if he had known or suspected that the British Navy would be engaged in major operations in that area at the same time.' Zeimke -American military historian.

Sweden laid on their railway to allow the Germans to cross over to Norway. Then they sold the Germans arms, creating a lucrative industry which has served them well ever since. So only nominally neutral.

One could argue that they didn't have much choice, but the Germans also imported Swedish soldiers into Norway to guard Norwegian prisoners which I know caused some hard feelings. Still have family in Norway.@@fredneecher1746

Una Nazione che ne aggredisce un'altra, può giustificarsi con il detto che "in guerra, non c'è nessuna onestà, nessuna umanità, nessun diritto!". D'altra parte, deve aspettarsi azioni clandestine di sabotaggio e attentati mortali. In tal caso si arroga il diritto di rappresaglia..... Tutte queste tragedie dovrebbero essere evitate discutendo a cuore aperto nei luoghi appositi. Purtroppo, le incomprensioni sfociano nell'incomunicabilità. La solidarietà - che è sempre la sola scelta giusta fra i popoli! - viene sopraffatta dall'egoismo; e cosi si arriva inevitabilmente alla Guerra Totale: con i Vincitori a processare i Vinti..... Se avessi potuto, avrei fatto incontrare un aviatore inglese (reduce dal volo su Dresda) uno tedesco (reduce dal volo su Coventry) e quello americano che sganciò l'Atomica su Hiroshima: per chiedere a tutti, con che cuore hanno sopravvissuto alla morte di teneri bambini e dolci animali da compagnia..... Forse avremmo concluso che siamo tutti, al tempo stesso, vittime e carnefici; e che alla base di tutto c'è la Paura: dell'ignoto; della solitudine; della miseria. E che la "gloria in battaglia" è l'inganno con cui i presunti "Potenti" - anch'essi vittime della stessa "Paura" - mandano i giovani a massacrarsi fra loro.

Lee J. Cobb, the ancient doctor was about 30 when they filmed this. Why wasn't he in the military? My revered late father was in New Guinea in the Marines, getting malaria. In addition to writing the novel, Steinbeck wrote the single creepiest fan letter in history to Marilyn Monroe, circa 1955. He wanted an autograph for his nephew. His nephew was fixated on her, he surely wasn't. Why, his nephew could not even imagine that she was subject to the natural functions. You know, the natural functions. But Steinbeck could imagine it. Oh yes, he could, he could vividly imagine it with his prize winning imagination. She would have burnt the letter and taken a long hot shower. This was Steinbeck's usual effect on women.

Never heard of this absolutely brilliant illustration, in real time, of the difference between decent people & shear evil. The struggle the victims of these vicious socialists have, trying to comprehend their depravity, is powerful. Even the Nazi Colonel is depicted in a way that, for all of his sadism & cruelty, he still has enough wisdom to understand that good will not simply lie down to be destroyed. Some of the scenes, for me anyway, we're hard to watch but, they all resulted in a very heroing & hopeful conclusion. Truly an unknown gem that every freedom loving human should watch, considering the time we live in, as these very same vicious & murderous leftists are here, to destroy us (body & soul), in our midst in our institutions, every single day.

But since most people think movies are reality, I watch stuff like this to help understand other people's crazy fantasies. If people back in the day were smart enough, Norway wouldn't be getting invaded by migrants right now, so this is very relevant to current events.

Israelis are using the same behaviour and tactics in Gaza. It makes me wonder about the book written by Leopold von Mildenstein and Karl Tuchler. The former was the head of the Jewish desk of the SS in Germany and the latter was a German Jewish judge who was the head of the Zionist Federation of Germany in the 1930's. They remained lifelong friends and the former wrote a book called "A Nazi Travels to Palestine" about their visit there in the establishment of their colonial project of Israel. There was a commemorative coin which had the star of David on one side and the swastika on the other. Both Israel and the Nazis adopted collective punishment against civilians in response to actions of resistance fighters from the occupied population, contrary to the Geneva Convention, S33. It makes one wonder about the establishment of Israel in 1948 and how embedded people like von Mildenstein and Tuchler were, the latter sacrificing Judaism for Zionism along with the people of the former religion.
