Ya know, I usually do, too.

But he's really good in this movie and very...un-Tom Cruise. And the other actors are amazing. Give it a try!

Thanks for mentioning this. I had personal reasons for thinking of it off and on all day yesterday, but couldn't make myself post about it.

For them, it was no movie plot.
Very well said! Stauffenberg is one of the most impressive persons of German history and I'm so proud of what he did.

I'm quite ashamed I still haven't seen Valkyrie. I so totally need to do that soon.

I'm so proud of what he did.

As well you should be! :) The whole group of conspirators were amazingly brave.

It's about time American audiences learned about this. I fear, though, that the people who didn't know about it weren't the kind to go see it in theaters anyway. :(

You should see it! It's very good and Tom Cruise is very un-Tom Cruise.
The visuals are breath taking, too.
