I haven’t seen the movie yet but I’m well-versed on the real history of this plot. It failed due to bad luck. Stauffenberg placed the bomb perfectly — it was in a briefcase and he was trusted well enough to get right next to Hitler. But after he left the room, somebody moved his briefcase.
The uniforms? Friedman knows nothing about the way German soldiers actually dressed. He’s a faggot. He’s used to seeing other faggots dressed up as Nazis. I have seen the TV ads and the trailer, and those uniforms are accurate.
I think the History channel or A&E (or some other) did a great piece on this and had explosives experts determine that most likely the size of the table, the open windows and the placement of the charge and size of the charge preventing Hitler from dying. But a couple of the other 42 attempts on Hitlers life were pretty smart.
