It's too bad this great film has never been issued as a video or a
DVD. I remember seeing it at a special showing in 1975.
Maximillian Schell's performance is brilliant., one of his very best, Although Eichmann is presented as a great catch, "the worst Nazi
of all" (more important than Hitler, Goering, or Himmler)? In
retrospect his role in the Holocaust was mainly an administrative
one (organizing the train schedules for deportation). He was not involved in the actual killing of Jews but was the most
important figure the Israeli's could come up with.
