* The movie features a few original, unhistorical characters, such as the Kranz family, the Nazi fanatic Henker, an unnamed OldSoldier, and SS officiers Stehr and Tellerman. Some of these characters are intended to represent different groups of civilians in besieged Berlin: Peter Kranz and his Oberleutnant represent the youth immersed in the Nazi propaganda who eagerly [[ChildSoldiers took arms]] against the Soviets; Wilhelm Kranz represents the older generations, who witnessed the [[WarIsHell horrors of the Great War]] and were too disillusioned to believe in the Nazi propaganda; Henker represents the most aggressive Nazi supporters who refused to believe the war was lost; the unnamed OldSoldier represents those elders who were pressed into fighting as partisans, no matter the fact that they were physically unfit.

* Himmler's attempt to negotiate with the Allies is depicted as being such a major personal betrayal that it ends up being a major contributor to Hitler's deciding to committing suicide. In real-life, Hitler and Himmler were not as personally close as is often believed, and their relationship had already been deteriorating in the preceding months, not helped by Himmler's failure to lead a counterattack on the Eastern Front. Hitler certainly ''was'' pissed off that Himmler had betrayed him on a personal level, but the despair he felt was more because it drove home just how badly he had lost control of the situation, as Himmler was famously loyal to Hitler even if the two men weren't particularly close friends.
