Brendan Fraser Dug Into Real WWII Archives for ‘Pressure’ 📜🔥
The actor visited London’s Imperial War Museum, handled authentic D-Day Operation Overlord documents, and researched Dwight Eisenhower’s historic decision before D-Day for his powerful new war drama.

🎬 Fraser also revealed ‘Pressure’ was filmed at the same location used in ‘The Mummy Returns’ — while teasing the highly anticipated return of ‘The Mummy 4’ with Rachel Weisz.

"The extraordinary story of Luxembourg resistance fighter Yvonne Useldinger

Arrested by the Gestapo when pregnant, Useldinger was separated from her daughter and sent to a concentration camp, keeping a secret diary in the process

(. . .)

At 15, she was already taking to the podium to give political speeches. The working conditions in the steel industry troubled her, and this was the initial driving force behind her becoming a dissident: her own convictions, rather than her family legacy. So much so that, in 1938, she decided to join the Communist Party of Luxembourg (KPL). And that’s when her life began to change.

Shortly after joining the KPL, she met Arthur Useldinger. A strong man of firm convictions, he had just lost his job at the ARBED factory because of his communist activism. They were two souls rebelling against the system, and they found common ground in their urgent desire to fight the injustices they perceived in the world. They married in April 1940.

Less than a month later, Nazi troops invaded Luxembourg. 'Then came that moment when Arthur and I asked ourselves: Do we continue to resist? Yes or no. Will we be strong enough? And then I said: ‘We have to take up this fight because it is something powerful in human history,’' recounted Yvonne, now Useldinger, in her diary. In the early days of the occupation, they both went underground.

(. . .)

In the basement of the house in Steinfort, they printed the underground magazine *Die Wahrheit* (The Truth) under the cover of night. It was on these pages that the largest opposition movement against the Reich began to take shape: the general strike of 1942."
