I copied this from my original post because it needs to be added to the Luger movies list. High Luger presence in "Miracle at St. Anna" and the main character's pistol is referred to as a "German Luger" by the reporter interviewing him. There is a closeup of the Luger after he uses it.
I just got back from seeing this and it has several good Luger scenes. I'm not going to go into detail for those who have not seen it, but a bringback Luger plays a major part in the movie. There are also a couple of firing scenes where the toggle can be seen cycling. Unfortunately, there are couple of incorrect Lugers. In one scene, post-war plastic (East German?) grips are clearly visible. In another scene, the Luger appears to have a 4 and 3/4 inch barrel. Overall, this was a good movie although it was slow in parts. The film also has plenty of MP40 and 1928A1 Thompson action.
