Saw last night for the 20th time at least a re-run of When Eagles Dare, the kind of great movie nobody could film now. Great action with a vintage and nice Ju 52
Noticed a laugheable error, at the end when the traitor Turner is informed the firing pin of his Sten was removed : there is no firing pin with a Sten...
 
I think you meant "Where Eagles Dare", the Clint Eastwood/Richard Burton film.
A Sten fires from an open-bolt. It has a fixed firing pin that hits the primer as the bolt slams forward. If the pin is removed or filed off, it won't fire.
 
If memory serves, my friend and his German wife went to see Where Eagles Dare the first day shown in local theater, and by coincidence happened to sit directly behind two sisters from high school, who had immigrated from Greece. We had immediate translation of German and Greek, and it did not always match the sub titles. At one point the sisters both said, "Oooh." When asked, they said the comment was rude and very vulgar by the actor.
 
In theater, the new Maverick flick. Totally fake, outrageous and fun. At home, the last installment of The Last Kingdom Series. I've read all of Cromwell's books in the series, so this was a must watch. In fact I've watched it 3 times, all except Season 5.
