Paul Asay. Movie Review. Colonel Claus von Stauffenberg lost an eye, a hand and several fingers in the service of Adolf Hitler’s Third Reich. He sacrificed the rest of himself fighting it. There are no surprise twists in Valkyrie, the story of Stauffenberg’s assassination attempt of Hitler. There are no happy endings. The German dictator survives.
