The second to last episode of the new TV series "Defiance", (which I'm struggling to warm to) had a psycho interrogator for the bad guys who was brandishing a standard P08.

There is also a new movie about the saga of German light cruiser SMS Emden raiding party during WWI, where lugers are shown - but not the expected P.04s: they used P08 instead:

Lets see, the movie "Warhorse". The scene where the german pulls out what looks like an artillery from under his coat. It was attached to a stock. But then he shots one of the horses with it. There was some scenes with some webleys in it as well.

I also was watching the new episode on discovery channel "Warlocks". I noticed a luger being shot where the was a line of their motorcycle gang members shooting, just so happen one member had a luger.

Last thing I thought was that I'd be contributing to this list - but tonite my wife and I watched a 2012 movie called "Cloud Atlas". Luger in an opening scene, then later used to shoot a composer; then near the end a reprise of the opening scene - a suicide.

The all time best! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wy-c8aAntWA

A bit off-topic...

TCM played "Where Eagles Dare" a couple nights ago; it has already been mentioned here that the SS officer with the Harpo Marx haircut held a Luger (the only one in the movie that I noticed), but while looking for a pic, I was saddened to find that the female lead, "Mary" [the blonde], played by real-life Mary Ure, died at the age of 42 from alcohol & barbituates... :eek: :(

Here's Von Hapen...It's hard to see, but it is a Luger...

There is an interesting story about shooting the scene where Clint's character shoots VonHappen played by actor Derren Nesbitt. Apparently Nesbitt had to be rushed to the hospital while he was still in full Gestapo Uniform where they worked to save his eyesite because of an accident while filming.

general path to the luger section of the internet db of firearms in films, just an fyi

I think one reason why people do not give much accreditation to sites such as IMDB is that they are incorrect or incomplete. One of my favorite movies (I have it on VHS & DVD) is the 1946 Alan Ladd movie, "O.S.S.". As the name implies, it's a film depicting the recruitment of O.S.S. agents and a few of their adventures during WW II. Part of the final scene is a fight between Ladd and a 'German soldier', culminating in a French boy giving Ladd a dropped Luger to use to save his girlfriend. The Luger figures in the film for maybe 10 minutes, as Ladd rushes around radioing deployments to a circling plane before dashing off for the girlfriend...(He doesn't save her - The Gestapo gets her)...

I used to visit IMDB but I have been frustrated in the last year or two (or three) and no longer visit. The omission of O.S.S. from the Luger 'database' is just another annoyance.

My point here is that sites like IMDB, Wikipedia, even Amazon [reviews] can be inaccurate or incomplete. They are at the mercy of the contributors, who may not care if their contributions are complete or even true. :(

Probably a dumb question, but what's up with the SS officers grip in the photo in #126? Would seem to me to be a good way to break a thumb.

Dont know if this was posted(TV Show)
but Season 8 of Supernatural, Crowley uses a Luger.

I have visited the actual castle on several occasions. Schloss Hohenwerfen is about 90km south of Saltzburg in the town of Werfen, Austria, (which Richard Burton correctly identifies in the movie). It is not on some lofty peak, but sits on a small rise in the middle of an alpine valley. At certain angles, it looks like it is way up high, but you actually walk up into it from the valley parking lot! The only cablecar system associated with the castle is the small one used to haul kegs of beer up to the kitchens! The cable car scenes were filmed not too far away in a neighboring village. The castle is associated with "Eagles" in a way, as its history is one of falconry and hunting with birds in general. They still do demonstrations for tourists. The courtyard where the helicopter landed in the movie is now a beer garden and the "Cablecar Room", whose door the Germans had to break down is now the souvenir shop!

On an actual historical note, there is a bridge not too far from the castle where Otto Skorzeni, the famous German commando, surrendered himself and his remaining troops to the Allies at the end of the war.

Not a Luger, but in the final [two] episodes of 'Mob City' last night, one of Bugsey Siegels' henchmen uses what appears to be a nickel plated Mauser 'Broomhandle' to shoot at the protective detail of a witness...

Sort of an interesting TV series, with new special effects...It is supposedly based on the book 'L.A. Noir' by John Buntin, which I am reading now, which is a historical narrative of the times described...But the TV series is fictionalized using several central fictional characters [the book is factual]...However, there is another book with the same title ['L.A. Noir'] by James Elroy, the author of the highly successful book 'L.A. Confidential', both of which are works of fiction...Describing the same period, city, and gangland figures...

I saw a 2011 British-German action thriller film that contains prominent fairy tale elements, directed by Joe Wright, called Hanna. Hanna Heller (Saoirse Ronan) is a 15-year-old girl [4][5][6] who lives with her father, Erik Heller (Eric Bana) in rural northern Finland, near Kuusamo. The film opens with her hunting and killing a reindeer, first by shooting it with an arrow that just misses its heart, and then killing it with a handgun (Luger!!)..

A little strange she is pointing an unloaded gun in the first picture! Eric

Just been fired!

On the last round...

How stupid am I ????

Not as stupid as every Hollywood crime/war movie/TV show [Mob City] with someone holding a prisoner at bay with an uncocked 45 automatic... :grr:

Even a wimp like me could grab that 45 away and beat the guy over the head with it before he could c0ck it... :mad:

Heres another!
 

Colt 45, I think!

Beretta 92.....

It's incomplete...See previous posts... :(

Other German Firearms in Shindlers' List!
 

You mean the rifle with the bolt open and the rear sight flipped up??? :D

This site contains almost all pictures that I won't post!! The film was in black and white that make it so vivid, dramatic and compelling!!! I must admit it was my first seeing those autos!!

What autos??? :confused:

MG34, MP40!!http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/Schindler'...sser_MP28.2FII and http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/MG34 and http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/File:Mp28.jpg and http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/File:MP40.jpg

This photo features a great image of Bela Lugosi, sporting a Luger, from a 1947 horror film called SCARED TO DEATH.. :evilgrin:

Hmm, that's a P38.

:roflmao:

But its a damn FINE lookin' P.38! :D

Streets of San Francisco season 2 episode 5

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eAtxOzJetKc

Luger with silencer used by bad guy and some reference to the 7.65 cartridge by Hollywood.

Also bad guy mob hit men with Sporterized Arisaka.

10:40
16:40 for some of the Luger and references to it.

36:05
43:02 Arisaka rifle. Pause on 43:02. Arisaka because of the long bolt release and safety knob and you can almost see numbers on the left of the receiver forward the bolt release. The rifle is a takedown if it is the same one they used in both scenes would make it a custom job Arisaka or a Type 2 or 100 possible sporterized job.

I like these 70's shows because you see guns you do not see these days in movies.
Now it is all Glocks and AR-15's. To each there own but that is boring for me to see.

I recommend watching this whole episode.

The late Tom Bosley places a guest role in the episode. Interesting to see him in a different role than Happy Days. For him in this episode it was anything than Happy days for his character.

Today I was watching The Great Waldo Pepper and spotted a Luger I didn't find on the movie list. At around 18 minutes Waldo (Robert Redford) and Mary Beth (Susan Sarandon) are watching a silent movie where one of the characters removes his gun-which Waldo says was a bad idea.

Congrads, beside lugers there some cutes faces!!

Turner Classic Movies tonight has 1958's "The Young Lions" with Marlon Brando as a German Leutnant with a Luger, in occupied Paris in 1940...He didn't shoot it [yet], he was more concerned with his peaked hat... :rolleyes:

Black & white movie, good props, skin tight uniforms...

Whoa! Brando's motorcycle just ran over a mine in North Africa! He's injured! :eek:

Did you recognize the "Burgermeister" of the town??

Yeah! I'm surprised that Robert Osborne didn't mention that he knew nothing! :D

Lee Van Cleef also got a mention in the credits but not much in the actual scenes.

A black & white movie in 1958...That's disappointing... :mad:

In the first 20 minutes, where Brando is in the bushes after the French ambush, he has his Luger out and there is one 2 or 3 second shot where it appears the toggle is open... :confused:

I watched this movie on Nexflix last night. For the C96 fans, a French resistance fighter uses a Broomhandle against Germans, both with and without the stock. I don't recall seeing a stocked Broomhandle used in a movie before.

"Joe Kidd", Clint Eastwood, 1972.

"The Decks Ran Red"
50s B movie involving a couple guys hijacking a ship.
Broderick Crawford is a bad guy with a hunting rifle and the Captain is Dana Andrews.
He has a Luger but loses it swimming to save a guy who drowns anyways.
Not much of a flick.
