Superstar Tom Cruise heads an international cast as Col. Claus von Stauffenberg, the aristocratic German officer who led the heroic attempt to bring down the Nazi regime and end the war by planting a bomb in Hitler's bunker. The "July 20 Plot" on Hitler's life is one of the most heroic but least known episodes of World War Two. Severely wounded in combat, Colonel Claus von Stauffenberg returns from Africa to join the German Resistance and help create Operation Valkyrie, the complex plan that will allow a shadow government to replace Hitler's once he is dead. But fate and circumstance conspire to thrust Stauffenberg from one of many in the plot to a double-edged central role. Not only must he lead the coup and seize control of his nation's government... He must kill Hitler himself.

A Cointreau Liquor Bottle Bomb Prop made for Bryan Singer's 2008 historical drama, Valkyrie. In the film, several officers in the German Army are opposed to the methods and ideology that Hitler has taken and feel it is incumbent on them to put an end to his reign of terror. Led by Colonel Claus von Stauffenberg (Tom Cruise), they devise a plan to assassinate Hitler, assume control of the military and government, and negotiate a truce with the Allies to spare Germany from utter destruction. Cointreau bottles bombs were crafted by Stauffenberg's team and can be found during an early scene in which they plant the explosives on Hitler's plane. This production-made prop features an intact bottom. Made from green glass, this bottle includes a corked top, and authentic Cointreau labels on the front, back and neck of the bottle. The second piece of the prop is the bottom piece of glass, which can be removed or reattached to give the appearance of a bottle that had not been tampered with. The top part of the bottle measures 9" (22.5 cm) tall (from where the bottom of the bottle is severed to the top of cork and is 4" (10 cm) wide by 4" (10 cm) long. The removed base of the bottle is also 4" (10 cm) wide by 4" (10 cm) long and is approximately 1/8" (0.3 cm) in height. Both pieces of the prop are in excellent condition.
