Valkyrie" is the true story of a German officer, played by Cruise, who tried to assassinate Hitler.

Um no. Cruise plays Col. Claus von Stauffenberg even Claus' son said "it will be crap" because of Cruise.

It goes like this.. follow me. Scientology is not allowed in Germany, neither is Tom or his movies. So Tom said "oh wise and wonderful ones we want to make a movie of your most beloved war hero, can we shoot in Germany?" And they did a jaw drop, and what else could they say? So now there is a new Scientology building in Germany to which Tom and Katie visited quite often. Last I heard the movie had a budget of 69 million, not bad really - they could get that back in time.

Who did they think would go see a movie about a murdering servant of Adolph Hitler? Yes he plotted to kill Hitler, um way way late, at the end of the war when Hitler was losing. He served in Rommels panzer division. He wasn't a hero, he wasn't a Col by playing nice. Slice it and dice it any way you want but this flick was only made to get Cruise into Germany, well done David.

It will probably never be shown anywhere but Germany.. or maybe wait a few years when people might forget all the particulars..
