The Debt is the 2010 American remake of the 2007 Israeli film of the same name. The film stars Sam Worthington, Jessica Chastain, Helen Mirren, Marton Csokas and Tom Wilkinson, and is directed by John Madden. The film centers around a Israeli Mossad team tasked with hunting down a notorious German doctor and the repercussions of the mission decades later. The film premiered in October 2010 at the Mill Valley Film Festival, but would not get a wide release until the next August.
The following weapons were used in the film The Debt:
A single Beretta Model 70 is carried by the Mossad team at the safehouse in Berlin and is supposedly the weapon young Rachel Singer (Jessica Chastain) uses to shoot the doctor.
In some publicity material for the film, such as the poster above, Rachel can be seen armed with a Beretta 92FS Inox. Its presence would by anachronistic in the 1960s since the Beretta 92FS Inox pistol did not begin production until the 1990's.
SKS rifles are seen in the hands of Eastern German Border guards and a young David (Sam Worthington). These are suppose to portray the Karabiner S, which also has a folded bayonet underneath the rifle.
