Anecdotes
Sean Penn: witness at trial. Sean Penn is the son of Leo Penn, who directed this film.

Gaffes
The year of the trial is supposed to be around 1973 (date of Sigrid Radke's coerced confession), but the film was shot in contemporary Germany. In a street scene, Gunther X (Sean Penn) walks by a Berlin electronic shop advertising compact disk players (introduced in the early 1980's). Also, Judge Stern refers to the Nurenburg Trials as having occurred "45 years ago", which would refer to the present as around 1990.

Versions alternatives
Depending on the version of the movie, the aircraft involved in the hijacking is either a LOT Polish Airlines Boeing 767 or an unmarked Tupolev Tu-134. (The actual hijacking in 1978 involved a LOT Polish Airlines Tu-134, and the airline did not acquire the 767 until 1989.)

Enjoyable, but....

Judgement in Berlin is not a great movie, but it is enjoyable to watch even if flag waving. Splendid performances by Sam Wanamaker and Martin Sheen as well by a young Sean Penn.
