I just read the news on raiders.net and it said that besides Hitler Heinrich Himmler was depicted in Last Crusade. I don't remember any scene where you could see him....or at least recognize anybody as Himmler. Could anybody tell me in which scene is meant.

(Heinrich Himmler was the commander of the German Schutzstaffel (SS) and a major responsible figure in the holocaust on the Jewish people during
the 40's)

I dunno, that surprised me too. Perhaps one of the SS Officers besides Hitler was supposed to be him?

I believe it's the one to the right of Elsa - portrayed by Ronald Lacey.

Hey yeah... You're absolutely right, Attila!
That guy looks just like the real Himmler. Never noticed him before in the movie...
I didn't even know Ronald Lacey was in LC... Somehow I always figured he died before LC was made.
But IMDB confirms it. Lacey did play Himmler, uncredited though, and died two years after LC was released.

Man... I just saw LC the day before yesterday. Now I'm eager to see it again soon just the spot the Lacey cameo... ;)

hey thank you for that picture....now i remember yes. Heinrich Himmler is the one with the black SS uniform wearing the glasses....he is on the left if u see it from Elsa's position.
By the way the fat General on the right from Hitler is definitely
Hermann Goering (Commander of the "Luftwaffe").
So you have Hitler,Himmler and Goering on this picture...the three most powerful fascists of the third Reich

PS: as long as we don't see any more Nazis in Indy 4 I would love to see some more historic or famous people in Indy 4 ......Einstein etc...
