Trivia
As the film was to be written, directed and produced by an English-speaking production team, the original intention was to shoot the film in English, whilst having the actors accent there dialogue according to the language represented. However, it soon became felt that this approach might come across as comedic, especially when the Commander would have to switch between talking to his men in German and addressing the village children in French, and so, rather late into the production, the casting call for actors was changed to accommodate French and German speakers.
