Jojo Rabbit is a 2019 American comedy-drama film written and directed by Taika Waititi and was based on the Christine Leunens novel "Caging Skies". Roman Griffin Davis stars in the film as Johannes "Jojo" Betzler, a Hitler Youth member who discovers that his mother Rosie (Scarlett Johansson) is hiding a Jewish girl (Thomasin McKenzie) in their attic. He must then question his beliefs, while dealing with the intervention of his imaginary friend, a fanciful version of Adolf Hitler (portrayed by Waititi). The film's cast includes Rebel Wilson, Stephen Merchant, Alfie Allen, and Sam Rockwell. Jojo Rabbit would go on to be nominated for six Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Supporting Actress for Johansson, with Waititi receiving the Award for Best Adapted Screenplay.
The following weapons were used in the film Jojo Rabbit:
Fraulein Rahm in several occasion is on screen with a Luger P08 Pistol. On the first occasion she try to offer it to Jojo, then she play with it in the conference room and during the battle she give it to Yorki, Jojo's friend.
During the battle sequences an extra and a little girl can be seeing holding a MP 3008, a limited production SMG copied from the Sten Gun to arm the volksturm with a cheap and effective automatic gun.
Several Volksturm units during the battle carry the Mauser Gewehr 1898, a WW1 era rifle reused in the last months of the war as a last ditch measure to arm militias.
The Mosin Nagant Rifle can be see clearly in the hands of several volksturm fighters (This is not a historical error, since at the end of ww2 the militias of the third reich were armed with anything at hand, included some of the millions of Mosin Nagant Rifles captured during Operation Barbarossa) and of some red army soldiers.
At the beginning of The Battle Jojo and Yorki met again. Yorki ask jojo to help him bring an MG42 along with some ammo to the frontline.
Later Fraulein Rahm embrace a MG42 going towards the enemy.
Probably this specific gun is an Airsoft replica, since it has a strange plastic block in the action. Also, when Frau Rahm shoots it, it clearly has a low rate of fire made in post production.
In the last scenes of the movie a M8 Greyhound armoured vehicle appear and the Browning M2 Heavy Barrel mounted over it start shooting on German Soldiers.
Later, a US jeep is parked on the side of a road for maintenance, with a Browning M2HB mounted on it.
the anti tank rocket launcher known as Panzerschreck is carried by Yorki with another child soldier. When Yorki stops to greet Jojo he leave the Panzerschreck causing it to fire accidentaly.
Later it's in the hands of a woman fighting in the Battle.
Panzerfaust rocket launchers are always present in the hands of militias along the movie. Cheap and easy to use, they were widespread among the Volksturm.
