Posted By: Dan Grossman June 10, 2010. The Hindenburg is a 1975 film directed by Robert Wise about the German zeppelin Hindenburg and the Hindenburg disaster of May 6, 1937. The basic plot of the movie â that the zeppelin was sabotaged by an anti-Nazi crew member â is entirely fictional, but the filmâs detailed sets and its depiction of life on board the airship are remarkably accurate.
Before the airship's takeoff on March 26, 1936, Ernst Lehmann chose to launch the Hindenburg with the wind blowing from behind the airship, instead of into the wind as per standard procedure. During the takeoff, the airship's tail struck the ground, and part of the lower fin was broken.
