Talk:Operation Finale

Inaccurate uniform Kingsley as Eichmann

I just went to see the movie. It has a high degree of verisimilitude, but (as usual in movies about the Nazis) there are small mistakes about uniforms. For instance there is a scene about the mass execution of East-European Jews, presumably in the period in which Einsatzgruppen marauded in Ukraine and the Baltic states, which Eichmann attended in his uniform of SS-officer. Now the first thing that is wrong is that his right-collar patch shows the SS-runen. But Eichmann was a member of the Sicherheitsdienst, which used a black right-collar patch, without the SS-insignia. The absence of the SS-insignia on the right-collar patch is also visible on the 1942 picture of the real Eichmann which accompanies his wikipedia article Adolf Eichmann. In the movie Kingsley wears the ribbon of the Iron Cross, second class, regulation-wise through the second buttonhole. But it does not show his ribbons for the War Merit Cross first and second class with swords, which he probably was proud to display. But that is a minor quibble. It also looked implausible that all German uniforms in this scene look so spic-and-span. As if they came directly from central wardrobe. This may have been possible for officers with batmen to keep their uniforms clean and well-pressed. But the lower ranks also? After digging that deep trench? These are of course minutiae in the Grand Scheme of things. But in a movie that prides itself on its verisimilitude not inconsequential. Eichmann probably turned in his grave.--Ereunetes (talk) 23:34, 2 September 2018 (UTC)

Query

I hope it is okay to do Q&A here. I didn't understand the following line of the plot:

"After capturing Eichmann, he admits his real identity, but his family realize that Sylvia found out as well, and inform the police who prevent their plane from taking off".

This part : his family realise that Sylvia found out as well. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ravi arnie (talk • contribs) 03:10, 5 October 2020 (UTC)

I moved the page and now there is a redirect in place. Please help by editing the incoming links accordingly. Is there a script that can assist with this chore? Special:WhatLinksHere
