"a cult that masquerades as a church to make money."
by Clam inproducers have been given the green light to film a movie about a plot to kill adolf hitler at a memorial site in berlin.. german authorities had initially blocked plans and objected to the casting of tom cruise in a starring role.. .
defence minister franz josef jung had said the filmmakers could not shoot at any german military sites so long as cruise played the lead role, citing cruise's affiliation with the church of scientology.. .
the film is called "valkyrie", the plot's code name, and features cruise as claus von stauffenberg, the conspirators' ringleader who placed a briefcase bomb next to the nazi dictator at his wolf's lair hideaway in eastern prussia.germany does not recognise scientology as a religion and sees it as a cult that masquerades as a church to make money.

Movie Clips That Have Made You Flinch
by Clam indear all,.
there's not much that makes me wince, not at the movies anyway, but those things that have, have inevitably stayed in the memory.. i saw it a long time ago at the cinema, but the reservoir dogs scene where michael madsen cuts a policeman's ear off to the track stuck in the middle with you, was one such scene.
certainly couldn't watch it again.
