Corrected entry: On their escape, a French woman hides Sellinger and Halloran in a barn. We see a man behind a curtain who later makes a phone call to inform the Germans. When they arrive Sellinger says to Halloran that the girl's father must have called them, this in spite of the fact that the woman never mentioned her father. (01:32:25)
Hanover Street (1979)
1 corrected entry
Directed by: Peter Hyams
Starring: Christopher Plummer, Harrison Ford, Lesley-Anne Down, Alec McCowen
Factual error: The lid Halloran removes before the jump out of the plane is much too small. They wouldn't have made it through the opening with their parachutes strapped on. (01:05:45)
Sarah Sellinger: Mummy... when am I going to get breasts?
Margaret Sellinger: Next Tuesday. Why?
Sarah Sellinger: I don't know. Sometimes I think they look silly.
Margaret Sellinger: Well, they do look best with formal wear.
Trivia: Halloran's plane, George-Ann, is named after the director's wife.

Correction: When they met the woman in the barn, and after she kills the German soldier, she mentions that her father is a collaborationist, because he was afraid of the Germans. It's natural to assume that if somebody alerted the Germans, it would only be her father.
