| SYNOPSIS __________
Plot:
In a country in the grips of evil, in a police state where
every move is being watched, in a world where justice and
honor have been subverted, a group of men hidden inside the
highest reaches of power decide to take action. Tom Cruise
stars in the suspense film, VALKYRIE, based on the true story
of Colonel Claus von Stauffenberg (CRUISE) and the daring
and ingenious plot to eliminate one of the most evil tyrants
the world has ever known. Director Bryan Singer (THE USUAL
SUSPECTS, X-MEN, SUPERMAN RETURNS) re-teams with Academy Award®-winning
USUAL SUSPECTS screenwriter Christopher McQuarrie to bring
to life the story of the men who led the operation to assassinate
Hitler. The film also stars an acclaimed cast including Kenneth
Branagh, Bill Nighy, Tom Wilkinson, Carice van Houten, Thomas
Kretschmann, Eddie Izzard, Christian Berkel and Terence Stamp.
A proud military man, Colonel Claus von Stauffenberg is a
loyal officer who serves his country all the while hoping
that someone will find a way to stop Hitler before Europe
and Germany are destroyed. Realizing that time is running
out, he decides that he must take action himself and joins
the German resistance. Armed with a cunning strategy to use
Hitler’s own emergency plan – known as Operation
Valkyrie – these men plot to assassinate the dictator
and overthrow his Nazi government from the inside.
With everything in place, with the future of the world, the
fate of millions and the lives of his wife and children hanging
in the balance, von Stauffenberg is thrust from being one
of many who oppose Hitler to the one who must kill Hitler
himself.
