Wissenswertes
Lee J. Cobb played Glenn Ford's grandfather, despite only being five years older than him (Cobb is actually made up to look twenty years older with gray hair and a large gray mustache).

Patzer
In the scene where the German army parades through Paris (June 1940) they're marching under the Triumphal Arch and past the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier (this is indicated in the scene's opening shot with the eternal flame on the tomb). In fact, the Germans refrained from marching through the Arch, as did de Gaulle and the Free French in 1944. The German HQ wanted to avoid stirring up revulsion and hatred, and no parade at all has marched there since the Unknown Soldier was put to rest in 1920. They have all passed beside the Arch (part of the symbolism of the Tomb is a wish for "no more wars").

Zitate
Marcelo Desnoyers: No man really loves life, who is unwilling to die for it.

The grandfather actor ruined the whole movie

Jesus, Lee J. Cobb who played the grandfather role was just over the top bad! I don't know it's the script or the director, or worst yet, by himself, to overacted with such nightmarish exaggeration. The grandfather role he played was like a lunatic crazy old man with loud mouth, a clown among his kinfolks, a menace to the crowd. This movie just looked so outdated with extremely traditional dramatic acting. The poor screenplay with terrible dialog forced the actors to act like they were on a theater's stage instead of a movie.

This is the second time I re-watch this movie, but just felt weird to myself with a question: "How did I stand that old grandfather role in this movie?" Because this was when Lee J. Cobb so exaggeratedly overacted like a crazy guy, so disturbingly disgusting that I forced me to quit watching. What a nightmarish acting.
