Hi Mark, you are right!

The 1976 german movie "Der Fangschuß", directed by Volker Schlöndorff:

Der Fangschuß / Coup de Grâce https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coup_de_Grâce_(1976_film)

One of the unfortunately very few feature films that dealt with the topic of the Freikorps at that time.
A typical film of the 1970s, restrainedly staged, in black and white pictures, worth seeing, and first-class cast.
A small masterpiece that belongs in every decent film collection.

Sorry for the late reply, your turn Mark! :wink:

I am still looking for a movie poster of this film in good condition, offers are very welcome...

Ouch! Plane registration (even though fake) is a give away… Fokker Super Universal used in Casablanca.

This is from one not worth watching. Boring and drags on and on with no real fun if you’re looking for battle scenes

Sorry Helmut. Even think there’s more action in your choice than in the one I posted.
