Trivia

In one of the scenes, Gregers jokes about his own death by saying, "If anything goes wrong this time, please shed a tear for me. And make sure my statue is erected at a suitable place - by the city hall, for instance". This quote is taken from a letter Gregers wrote to Tikken just a few weeks before he died. In 1995 Max was present when a bust of Gregers was erected outside the Njaard hall in Oslo.

The producers wanted to use members of His Majesty The King's Guard as Nazi extras due to their marching and military drill skills. However, army commanders refused because they didn't want serving members of the King's Guard to dress up in Nazi uniform or portray Nazis.

The scenes with German soldiers were made with over 1800 extras.

Goofs

When the Nazis were marching on Karl Johan's Gate (Oslo) in June 1940 the trees in the park were leafless suggesting early spring or late autumn.

Share this

The German soldiers play The Badenweiler March while marching down Karl Johans Gate in June 1940. But in the summer of 1939, Germany's Minister of Propaganda Joseph Goebbels signed a police order, forbidding this March to be played except at functions attended by Adolf Hitler, and only in his presence. However, Hitler is not present here, and whoever was responsible would have to pay a fine or go to jail.
