CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Stauffenberg (Tom Cruise) and his co-conspirators are captured, and Fromm (Tom Wilkinson) sentences them to death.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
At the absolute height of World War II, German generals hatch a daring plan to assassinate Adolf Hitler and effectively render the German war machine impotent. Directed by Bryan Singer, Valkyrie stars Tom Cruise as Colonel Claus von Stauffenberg, the real-life mastermind behind the elaborate plot known as Project Valkyrie: a plan to assassinate Hitler and overthrow his government from the inside. Stauffenberg has been a loyal soldier and an asset to the Reich for his entire military career, but after losing an eye, a hand, and three fingers in an Allied bombing, he reaches a breaking point. The destructive madness that his country is unleashing on the world has become too terrible for the colonel to stand silent. He joins the resistance movement -- a treasonous act, punishable by death -- and risks his life and the life of his family for the chance to change history. Comprised of high-ranking officials working in secret, the German Resistance has access to the inner workings of the government and military, putting them in the perfect position to dispatch the dictator and then use his own official contingency plan to seize power -

One notable guy was "spared": Fabian von Schlabrendorff, a former lawyer whose "trial" was scheduled for 3 February 1945. However, thanks to a bombing raid-induced dislodging of a ceiling beam revoking Judge Roland Freisler's breathing license, and also conveniently destroying his criminal record as well, Schlabrendorff dodged execution by the skin of his teeth and was later rescued by the Allies. After the war, he would go on to become a judge.

[@miroslavtomic2681]

My point exactly.

[@cripplehawk]

What really got Fromm in trouble is that he was ordered to keep the conspirators alive. Fromm ordering the executions WITHOUT Hitler's authorization is what got him in the end. It was said that after the conspirators were executed. Goebbels was waiting for him at home and ask him "why did you killed them? We wanted them alive."

[@vince01lp]

At least Fromm was executed by firing squad, which was a quick death compare to others who were hanged by a piano wire which caused a slow, excruciating death...

[@ikaika.mauricio]

I really loved the part where they all turned to General Fromm and acted as if he was part of the plan in order to take him down as well haha. He was arrested and executed a year later so...

[@kj2369]

The video cuts out just before Stauffenberg mentions that Fromm turned a blind eye. They came to Fromm with their plan earlier in the movie, where he told them his allegiance was with the fuhrer, but he didnt arrest them for it. That's what the lieutenant meant when he said Fromm was as guilty as the rest of them, it wasn't just to take him down with them

[@kj2369]

In short, he did play a part in the plan by not arresting the conspirators, despite knowing of their plan before hand. That's why he expedited their execution, and why he was eventually executed himself

[@rooseveltdarbey9493]

Fromm was an opportunists that it

[@patrickmccrann991]

Less than a year. Bomb plot was July 44, Germany surrendered May 45. Fromm was dead long before Germany surrendered.

[@enterpriser4029]

Fromm knew that their subordinates were plotting to kill Hitler, but he did not order their arrest. He was waiting for the events to unfold so he could decide which side he would jump in. So the conspirators were never entirely sure whether Fromm would join them. When Fromm learned that Hitler was still alive, he decided not to join the conspirators. If Hitler was killed, Fromm would probably would had join the conspirators. In fact, when Fromm was arrested, he actually apologized to one of conspirators explaining that he could not join them because he believed that Hitler was still alive and they were making a mistake (this dialogue is not shown on the movie, I read it in a book about the plot).

Most likely Fromm did this to silence those who could testify against him. However, some historians have raised the possibility that Fromm might have done this to spare his subordinates from the Gestapo torture. The reality is that nobody knowns for sure what were his intentions.

[@enterpriser4029]

This scene is surprisingly accurate from a historical perspective. Fromm did refer to Stauffenberg as “the colonel-whose-name-I-will-not-mention” just like in this scene. There are a few minor differences though. For example, Stauffenberg pleaded to let the others go since it was his full responsibility, but he was ignored by Fromm. Also Stauffenberg was no longer using his eye patch. When Fromm asked whether anyone would want to write a letter, Olbritch responded that we wanted to write a letter to his wife, and Fromm allowed him to do so. Also when Beck held the gun he did say “I am thinking about past times”; however, Fromm interrupted him screaming “JUST DO IT” since he knew troops loyal to Hitler were about to arrive and he did not have much time. Beck shot himself but he only injured himself and was still alive. He tried a second time but was still alive. Then Fromm asked an officer to finish him off who refused to do so ordering a lower ranking militar to finish Beck.

[@bobbyricigliano2799]

Fromm's tangential involvement in the coup was similar to that of Rommel, essentially knowing of the plan and taking no action to stop it. Rommel was popular with the German people and he had also suffered a serious head wound right after D-Day. With the assurance of his family being provided for, he accepted his fate and did not try to conceal his actions (or inactions) the way Fromm did.

[@mxkmxk7296]

I don't think that Fromm even knew what was the plan, he only knew that they were planning something against Hitler.

[@joshuagrover795]

Then Hitler hypocritically gives Rommel a state funeral. If Rommel had seen out the war I highly doubt he wouldn't have been charged with any war crimes etc. Out of all the senior Generals his record was near clean throughout the war..

[@Kontorotsui]

Not quite. Fromm was on active duty and there was his (fake) signature on the Valkyrie order. Rommel was convalescent and never took part to the conspiracy.

[@bobbyricigliano2799]

@@Kontorotsui It has been a few years since I read Shirer's book, so I did not recall that Fromm's signature was forged on Valkyrie. Is the scene in the film accurate? Did Fromm stand by and watch Stauffenberg hand Hitler a forged document to sign? He was in the room. The recent film about Rommel goes into detail about his passive awareness of the plot before being wounded. That would at least signal an act of omission that further enabled Valkyrie to continue. He received a "better death" than the active conspirators, but that seems to have been given primarily to avoid embarrassing Hitler rather than a recognition of Rommel's long service.

[@Kontorotsui]

@@bobbyricigliano2799 About Rommel you're right, the chance to quietly suicide having his family spared was given mostly because having a national hero like Rommel be accused of treason and be part of the plot would generate a massive backlash. About Fromm, I didn't mean that moment, with Hitler. I mean when the plotters sprang the coup and Fromm refused to sign the order to mobilize the Reserve Army, they put his fake signature on the Valkyrie order. This is show in the movie (see clip 8/11) and is historically confirmed, also Wikipedia lists that on the page about Fromm.

In the TNT (I think) movie “The Plot to Kill Hitler”...... yeah, exiting title, right? ...... Fromm is a more sympathetic character at the end. He walk up close to Stauffenberg and says “It is better for you here, now.” He knows he is saving them a much more grim future. That is also a good watch, FYI.

[@rebelusa6585]

General fromm did a great favor for the conspirator, fromm let the conspirator died with dignity rather than face the ss and people court. As ww2 came to an end, hitler became completely mad, he lash out at everyone, he kill people for the smallest mistake.

[@mxkmxk7296]

Yes for example one of the plotters General Hopner had the chance to commit suicide, but he decided to face the people court. He later regretted this decision based on the torture and humiliation he had to go through.

[@angelrogo]

The casting is good: two of the best actors from Der Untergang.

[@JB-gw7xf]

They had like half the cast of Pirates of the Caribbean in this movie.

... Goebbels said calmly

[@joshuagrover795]

Despite how Joseph Goebbels is portrayed during this period, he was no idiot knew from the start Fromm had even a small role in the attempted coup.

[@jeremymerrifield7244]

All those great actors and also Tom bleedin Cruise

[@snakeenjoyingacanofbeans5219]

He should of known better than to try and win against Fegelein with his antics

Thank you for showing the world we were not all like him

[@nickysimi9866]

It just occurred to me that this is set in 1944 but the soldiers seem to have early war uniforms

[@Rendell001]

Working in the main Army staff offices in Berlin would I'm sure grant a better quality of uniform than a private at the front...

[@ikaika.mauricio]

At the same time i have a feeling General Fromm wanted hitler dead as well but was just so fearful of the consequences if the plan didnt follow through. Also he didnt want them handed over alive maybe because he didnt want them to go through torture? Plus too he mustve known he wouldve gotten in huge trouble and probably killed because he disobeyed hitlers orders to take them in alive. Maybe it was his way to show them his respects for their attempt. But who knows, just my theory.

[@b4nterontilt245]

Fromm was a fanatic

@ 0:33. I am sure he played Fegelein in the German movie ‘Downfall’ about the last days at the bunker.

0:03 thank you script writers for not using the "It will be an honor to have died with you." ... "It's an honor to have lived with you." Last Samurai and 300 already over played.

[@user-ds2rd2oq1r]

I love how the little private speaks up “you had everything to do with this” that SS soldier was down for the cause from day one! Got to give it up to him. These guys knew what was right

[@mqbitsko25]

Fromm wanted them hushed up as quickly as possible. But it wasn't quick enough.

:34 you can tell the major didn’t want to arrest them... he knew who were the good guys.

[@marcusjohnson6412]

Actually major Remer was an ardent anti semite who survived the war and continued to push national socialism the rest of his life.

[@MB-fo2sk]

Remer was a true NS believer. If he felt uneasy it was probably only at the thought of killing fellow German officers.

[@enterpriser4029]

Some historians have especulated that Fromm might have done this to spare his subordinates from the Gestapo torture. In fact, one of the conspirators called Erich Hoepner was given the chance to commit suicide, but he preferred to go through the trial. Afterwards he regretted his decision after being brutally tortured in prison before his execution.

[@ian038]

One of the best movie I have ever seen

[@beatrizhettwer]

Que loucura😱Homens corajosos💪🙏

[@antiantifa1250]

Fromm was the US equivalent of a 4 star general. He should’ve retired in early 1944. He’d’ve lived to rebuild the German Armed services.

[@360Nomad]

Who would hand a man you intend to force to kill himself a fully loaded pistol and not remove the magazine first?

[@martinchc4]

The moment he would point it at anyone... he would be dead within a second... so what. Plus I guess they counted on his military honor that he would only kill himself

[@MrSniperdude01]

Agreed - the Prussian military code of honor / respect often stood firm in cases like this. The odds of this guy clipping Fromm were remote >considering the major, Fromm's adjutants, and the outside guards were all well armed and looking right at the guy. Also, I vaguely remember something about the German Walther models -- I believe if you tried to remove magazine after cocking, it somehow prevented the gun from firing the chambered round, similar to some gun features today.

Easy buddy.1st this men were to 90%German Imperial Prussian Officers.2nd not all Germans today are like what you said.And we are growing.We may have been defeated,but it's not possible to kill our spirit of the germanic tribes,it's still is in our genes and blood.But we don't want no Nazi opression.We're searching for a better way.
