Surely placed there for the movie. The location may be the authentic border crossing https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berlin_border_crossings , but it's doubtful, if they Allied still used in the 80ies a Willys MB - the French surely not. The Wedding belonged to the French Sector. |

yes, here it's clearly to see: the Jeep has a private Berlin-plate. And the "Checkpoint" on this pic is a movie-prop (that on the main pic is an authentic one). Just a container on the studio-backlot with wrong traffic signs, wrong uniforms (French police) and historical goof. As for example the (faked) West Berlin-police VW Bulli, passing the checkpoint. This was absolutely impossible until 1990 (I think even until the unification at the 3.10.1990). It happened just two or three times in the history, that an official West German vehicle went officially into the DDR, all ambulances for emergency-cases. Emergency-cases, where a West German DDR-vistior was too ill to be transported with a DDR-ambulance (the SMH-Barkas) to the border, where -exactly on the borderline- he was reloaded to a West German ambulance. This was the usual way. -- Last edit: 2015-07-31 00:12:39 |
