  1. Not to complain, but it’s weird that only Weissner was thrown out of the car when it crashed..

  2. coment to hans about the car scene it does not matter… think back to the pub/gastoff scene when he bursts in and says hes looking for alpen corps deserters,and check there papers.. been me i would have giving myself up… did you see the look on his face… it was a mess with me and your dead look….!!!!!!!!!

  3. Love how, despite his short appearences, he gets a credit mention. Same with Carpenter. Not worth mentioning them.

  4. I think he had great menace in his character and would have liked him to have been longer hot on the trail than killed off so quick.
