    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      This is the real story of Marcel Marceau's days in the French Resistance.
    • Goofs
      Klaus Barbie is wearing the wrong rank during the entire film. He was a Hauptsturmführer not an Obersturmbannführer. Barbie was the equivalent to a Captain not a Lieutenant Colonel. Big historical difference.
    • Quotes

      Georges: I'm not going to bring them more instability just because you suddenly feel it may get dangerous.

      Georges: You are a mile away from nazi Germany where an extremely popular leader is preparing the most powerful army in the history of Europe to conquering a neighboring country while he blames all possible evil on the Jews.

    • Crazy credits
      SPOILER:  Epilogue:  "For his contribution to the French resistance, Marcel Marceau made 'Grand Officier de la Légion d'Honneur' and was awarded the National Order of Merit in France. He is recognized as the most important Mime of all time.   Marcelle's father, Charles Mangel, was deported to the Auschwitz Concentration Camp, where he was killed in 1945.   After the war, Nazi hunters Beate and Serge Klarsfeld found Klaus Barbie hiding in Bolivia. He was extradited to France, where he was convicted of crimes against humanity. He died in prison in 1991.  The Jewish Resistance groups of France saved ten thousand children during World War II. The Nazis advocated killing children of 'dangerous groups' as part of their plan to 'purify the Aryan race.' They killed 1.5 million children, including tens of thousands of Romani children, children with physical and mental disabilities...and over a million Jewish children. This film is dedicated to them. We will never forget."
