TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

Despite the fact that Kenneth Branagh plays a major role in this movie, he is uncredited. Reportedly, Branagh refused to be credited out of concern that he would be billed above Robert Sean Leonard, Christian Bale, and the other boys, whom Branagh proclaimed were the real stars of the film.

Kenneth Branagh was 31 years old when he played adult man Herr Knopp in the movie while Frank Whaley, was 28 when he played teenager Arvid.

Thomas calls the H.J. "the Scheiße Patrol". Although he pronounces it incorrectly, "Scheiße" means "shit" in German.

Ethan Hawke turned down the role of Peter Müller.

On-location in Prague, in nearly freezing weather, Christian Bale was visited by Steven Spielberg (director of his theatrical movie debut Empire of the Sun (1987)).

Popular Dialogues

"Arvid: I would rather belong to any one... ANYONE, than belong to the Nazis like you do. Thomas Berger: That's because you have everything backwards. Nazis go anywhere they want, do anything they want, everyone gets out of our way. Arvid: Quiz time. Got your glasses on. Thomas Berger: What? Arvid: It means you don't know who your friends are."

"Evey: How do I look? Peter: Like gold."
