John Rabe (2009)

FAQ

John Rabe

FAQ



    Yes, but it was a river gunboat of the United States Navy in reality and not a passenger liner. The gunboat was in the process of evacuating remaining Americans from Nanking on December 11, bringing the number of people aboard to five officers, fifty-four enlisted men, four U.S. embassy staff, and ten civilians. It was sunk by Japanese aircraft while still anchored, whereas the movie depicts it underway before being attacked.
