In my opinion, the movie portrayed the 20 July plot pretty accurately. Even though the actors were mostly American or British, they did a good job playing a German character. Many of the quotes used in the movie were real quotes from Stauffenberg and Beck which added more historical accuracy as well. There were not a lot of plot holes that I saw during the movie that would discredit it. For someone who has not dissected the history of the resistance as much as this class, the movie would seem very accurate, and even to me, it seemed very well done. It definitely helped watching the movie again after having learned about the people involved. Everything made a little more sense once you got to see it all unfold and see the role that each person played in the attempt for Hitler’s life.
