Very restrained performance, just right for the type of man that he was. Some of his best work in ages.
Nothing would have been less realistic, than having them speak in German accents. I doubt too many of them spoke accented English amongst themselves....

If any country other than Germany or Austria makes a film about WWII, there is always the language question. "Sophie's Choice" pulled it off by going totally realistic, but the scenes were flashbacks and thus not the entire movie. I liked how Hunt for Red October dealt with the Russian language- a few scenes in actual Russian and then a switch to English.
Now, the inevitable question is:
If the German film industry makes a movie about the American West, do the actors speak German with an American accent or just do it in English?
