That's interesting, Mike.

I don't know enough German to be able to tell but Germans often are stereotyped in movies. The most absurd example I can think of is a scene in "Stalag 17" where the Kommandant puts on his jackboots for a telephone conversation with his superior officer. I studied German for two years in college, but unfortunately have forgotten much of it due to no opportunity to use it.
