Plots(1)
At the height of the war, a group of high-ranking German officers, including Colonel Claus von Stauffenberg (Tom Cruise), Major-General Henning von Tresckow (Kenneth Branagh) and General Friedrich Olbricht (Bill Nighy), hatched a plot to assassinate Adolf Hitler (David Bamber) and seize power of the military command in order to end the war and make peace with Allied forces. The operation, codenamed 'Valkyrie', was modified by the conspirators to ensure its success, but for various reasons the plot failed when finally carried out on 20 July 1944, and the conspirators of the inner circle were summarily executed following a kangaroo trial. (Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM))
