Here is finally a very worthy review of Valkyrie, which gives due respect to Tom Cruise and the filmmaker's fine suspense-filled direction. The reviewer gives a good account of the historical context (and political reasons) for the obscurity of these German resistance fighters after the end of the War.
So much for Sailer the critic, Sailer the historian, and Sailer the analyst of human character. I wonder if Vdare is doing their website service by giving him such undue attention. I still have a theory that his successful analyses are a hodge-podge of opinions and writings that he carves together from many sources. Whenever he has to rely solely and uniquely on his own thoughts, he often comes up with the kind of post he wrote on this fine historical film.
