Goofs

Most of the defendants used headphones throughout the trial to hear the translations of the Allied members of the court. Yet, none of the defendants used headphones to hear their verdict and sentencing.

After saying goodnight to his guard, defendant Hermann Goering walks to the other side of his cell, where bright daylight shows through the window above him.

As the camera passes Walter Funk when he pleads, "Nicht schuldig," Albert Speer lowers his headphones onto his shoulders. When the camera returns and it is Speer's turn to plead, the headphones are back over his ears.

At 43:03 you can see the window in the background is open. Seconds later, in the same scene, the (now closed) window flies open and blows a bunch of papers around.

At the begin all the men that will be tried are mentioned. Wenn they here their sentence Seys-Inquart is left out nor his execution is seen while he was also given the death-sentence.

At the end of the trial, Field Marshall Wilhelm Keitel is referred to as "Admiral Keitel."

Jackson's secretary/mistress had little to do with the rebuilding of the Palace of Justice. Jackson "congratulates" her when he sees the renovations in the Palace of Justice.

Captain Gilbert (Matt Craven) wears the Purple Heart ribbon, indicating that he was wounded in combat. But he wears no campaign ribbons to denote that he served in a combat theater during the war.

When the prisoners are giving their names, Field Marshal Wilhelm Keitel can be seen wearing an Iron Cross slightly larger than that of Alfred Jodl or Karl Donitz. This is because the Iron Cross he is wearing is in fact the Grand Cross of the Iron Cross, which should have been worn by Hermann Goring.

Julius Streicher's final statement was not "Heil Hitler" he said that before he climbed the stairs. His final statement was "The Bolsheviks will hang you one day"

The leading Nazis sentenced to death at Nuremberg were all executed during the night of 16th October in the prison gymnasium. Yet bright sunlight is clearly seen shining through the upper windows of the building as the condemned men are each brought to the gallows.

Unfortunately this film is full of errors, and really should have been corrected in post edit. In the scene where the defendant are being hanged, the film depicts the gallows as being able to hang three persons at one, when in fact the actual gallows built could only dispatch one individual at a time.

Near the end of the movie (the scene that the Nazi's receive their sentences), Each of the four judges are shown reading out at least one of the sentences. When the French magistrate is reading out a sentence, he lifts the sheet of paper that he was reading from, revealing several lines of highlighted text. This should not have been possible, as the first highlighter wasn't invented until 1962.

The London based scenes have Routemaster buses in them which did not go into production until 1958.

The Russian General Ion T. Nikitchenko wears the wedding ring on his left hand. Russians wear it on the right hand.
