⭐ Featured Review

A good movie about the resistance in the 2nd World War
by centaursbos2003-12-17

"I think this is really a good movie, especially for dutch understandings. You have to know, that when a dutch movie is called bad, it is really bad. My father saw the last time this movie about 30 years this film ago, and it is very interesting to see how well he remembers some of the conversations. It is even based on a true story of the second world war. In `the silent raid' the activities of the KP (knokploegen), roughly translated ` strong-arm squads', are the main theme. The movie begins when inspector Bakker is caught by the occupiers. The KP tries to get him back by attack..."

💡 Did You Know?

Dutch actor Hans Culeman who played the German officer in this picture was born in Germany and spoke fluent German. He was the surprise of this movie. Till then nobody knew of his German descent. Both Hans Tiemeijer ( the doctor) and Rob de Vries (Piet Kramer) had actually been in the resistance in the Netherlands during the second world war.
