Re: Luger in Movies
Also, "Shadow of the Vampire", which was recently released, employs a Luger to establish that it is very risky to use only a 9 mm round to attempt to put down the undead. It actually was a fairly interesting and well-executed movie.
In addition, my wife had "Charade" on the TV last night, and I just happened to walk by and observe Walter Mathau with some good close-ups of his Luger in the final climatic scene (although you could not ascertain the manufacturer, you could see that the gun had strawed parts--for some reason, my wife appeared underwhelmed by this revelation). I also seem to recall from seeing the film many years ago that there is a Luger water pistol used near the beginning.
