The major was horrified that he realized he was taking orders from the "traitors" once he heard the voice of his master. In real life, after realizing he'd been duped and helped in stopping the rebellion he was promoted two ranks to full colonel , and ended the war as a general. Many make much of his actions that night, but in reality Hitler was in total control of everything, and even if the conspiracy had worked, once Hitler made it known he was alive it would all have melted away. The proof is in the example of this major who was all bent on arresting Goebbels, but once he heard Hitler's voice he completely changed his tune, as would have everyone else once Hitler announced he'd survived. Operation Valkyrie would only work if Hitler was dead.

[@degsbabe]

@@degsbabe Well, this was summer 1944, Germany still ruled most of Europe. Normal people or smaller ranked officers especially when not in the front itself did not know it was just a question of time when the Reich would collapse. All information in print and in radio and cinema were controlled strictly. And most normal people still believed in mid 1944, that Hitler only could lead the war to a respectable end, also there were rumours of the V-weapons that gave people the hope. So when people would get the message that someone tried to kill Hitler, they would try to get those who worked on the plot, cause they would feel that these people want to ruin Germany.

Movies can't really show events too accurately because they can be boring if you are not a historian. When you like something, you can watch even poor versions of it just to see somebody create the visuals. This scene was the most accurate for me and shows the strange tension between those duty-bound to follow orders and the way it was twisted by the Hitler cult if you want to call it that. Goebbels knows he can't avoid arrest if Hitler is dead or captured, but he takes a gamble that the officer is a Party member and has higher loyalties to the Fuhrer than to the army he was serving in. All these young officers have been indoctrinated in school and media that Hitler was Germany and his will was more important than anything else in your life. The weakness of Valkyrie was the need to use non-plotters and the existing structure to implement the takeover. A great scene! Some will say it is underplayed, but a great many pivotal moments are.

[@istoppedcaring6209]

doesn't even matter, if he isn't a national socialist he would still make the same call, he could hate Hitler but still realise that there is no point arresting Goebels when Hitler is still allive and capable of issuing orders, it's only a matter of time

Hitler, like any head of state-not to mention dictator- was commander in chief and so his orders overruled anyone else’s. So no tension or choice. Also implementing Valkyrie was only lawful if there were a real emergency- here Hitler’s death- and he wasn’t dead. They swore a loyalty oath to Hitler.

Remer should have guessed from start that something was wrong. His order was signed by General Olbricht and it was delivered to him by General Paul von Hase. Neither of them had any legal authority to mobilise Ersatzheer (Reserve Army). Only person who had the legal authority to mobilize Ersatzheer was Hitler himself or in his absence the commander of Reserve Army, which at the time was Friedrich Fromm. Plotters tried to get Fromm to sign the order and imprisoned him when he refused. However, even if Fromm agreed to sign, it would still be illegal as by that time it was known that Hitler was still alive.

Historically this was actually the turning point of the July Plot. When the Army heard that Hitler survived they returned to their barracks and let the conspirators more or less hang themselves. Fromm actually thought he could save his own skin by arresting high level conspirators like Von Witzeleben, but it was too late. His fate was sealed. How history could have turned very differently if only a German officer hadn't moved the briefcase to behind a table leg so he could get a better look, even though it cost him his life. And anyone who still labours under the impression that all Germans were Nazis blah blah should definitely read up on German history between 1933 and 1939, read on the history of the ordinary German people between 1939 and 1945 and maybe then they will realise, just what would have happened to them, if they had begun to snoop around the dark side of the Reich. Dictatorships rely heavily on keeping their "citizens", ignorant of what is going on around them.

You conveniently forget the 'state within a state' , the SS. This unique organization ( which employed the best and brightest Germany could offer up in high IQ and high character individuals)was the beating heart of national Socialism and transformed germany with the permission of the overwhelming approval of the German populace. Cheers

[@Sou1defiler]

@@harrylately1 Except they didnt. The SS was at first the personal bodyguard of Hitler and was created by Himmler because he was sick of being subordinate to Ernst Rhoem and his SA. It was actually Theodore Eicke who transformed the SS from a handful of personal bodyguards into first concentration camp guards at Dachau. Until then the concentration camps had been guarded by the SA and were more or less roughly held together camps guarded by unruly gangsters. Once Himmler saw what Eicke had done with the Dachau guard and after Roehm and the SA was liquidated the SS took over the concentration guard duty. What you said was true at first. When the SS was first formed and up to the start of WWII they were carefully racially profiled and selected for their particular zeal for National Socialism, but even they had standards. Sheer brutality was quickly weeded out. As for "high quality" individuals. Hardly. Himmler was widely despised outside of the SS, it was a running joke between Goebbels and Goering that Himmler would miserably fail his own racial tests. Himmler's deputy Reinhard Heydrich was cashiered from the Navy after he was found to be conducting an affair with the wife of a ship's captain and was also strongly suspected to be Jewish. Kaltenbrunner was a brutish thug who intimidated other officers with his size and his dueling scars which he carried like badges of honour. Theodore Eicke was a brutal fanatic who while a very competent organizer, would not hesitate to remove anyone who displeased him in the slightest or send them packing to a concentration camp, but not as a guard. Most if not all of the Einsatzgruppe commanders, all intellectuals yet all passed through the Dachau model . And while the German people may have given Hitler their votes, they did not give him permission to unleash the SS on them. Before the war started, there was more Germans killed, imprisoned or beaten and starved to death than any other demographic in Nazi Germany. And when things started to go awry and they started asking questions, the SS would not hesitate to issue a Night and Fog decree. So I did not "conveniently forget" the SS. By the time of Barbarossa and especially July 4th 1944, most if not all of the elite SS battle division commaders had long since abandoned the racial profiling, and more or less accepted anyone. Regardless of who or where they came from. Bear in mind there was at least two Waffen SS divisions made from French and British soldiers.

Can anyone tell me where to find the music playing in the background of this scene? I can't find it on the soundtrack.

he freakin took a salute stance over the phone

That's not unusual at all. Technically you're supposed to. You're supposed to go to Attention when addressed by a superior officer over a phone. Supposed to...

Its amazing how some of these actors were in 2004’s Downfall movie portraying nazi characters. Such a god damn masterpiece. Bruno Granz played Hitler better than Hitler himself lol

End of the war and probably would have saved many lives.

[@nucflashevent]

If they hadn't dottled...if they'd gotten everything moving immediate...given several hours of having Berlin under control before Hitler was able to call...it likely wouldn't have mattered. Sensing "a shifting breeze", the soldier likely would have simply said "the Fuhrer is dead" and hung up the phone (at which point Goebbels would killed his own sorry ass and World War II would have ended with fewer deaths to every side, etc.) But...20/20 hindsight and all that.

[@sb12083]

actually the conspirators only wanted peace with the western allies and wanted their help to take down the soviet union together. Considering that hitler himself proposed this several times to the allies and were rejected every instance gives not much hope that the war would have ended with the dismemberment of a nazi party. But no one knows how the western allies would have reacted to the proposal of the new german leadership since it never happened to it remains a mistery.

[@FantadiRienzo]

The public opinion in the western countries would have also shifted, if the people found out that the Nazis are no longer in power.

Remer is one of the most interesting characters in the film. The real-life Remer in fact remained faithful to his ideals after the war and until his death, and even had to go into exile in Spain, when he was persecuted for his ideas in Germany. Many of the characters in the film closely resemble the real ones.

"Do you recognise my voice?" "Yes. You're the actor David Bamber. Loved you as Mr. Collins in Pride and Prejudice and Cicero in the Rome miniseries. But by far and away my favourite performance was your Olivier-winning performance as Guy in My Night in Reg on the West End." "Always good to hear from a fan. Thanks." [click]

clarke griswold don't worry...we non english speaker sometimes read subtitle. Not whole but still. Its better that movie like this is in german. Especially when they are depicted in nazi era. It gave you the feelings

yeah i only speak a little german but i wouldnt mind reading subtitles, just like inglorious bastards

Another irony is that actor Harvey Friedman that played Goebbels here, played jewish cabaret owner in movie Hitler: Rise to Power. And by his name he’s probably Jew in real life.
