According to a British reporter on location, fellow cast members Troy Garity and Thomas Kretschmann were so upset with script revisions of the baby-in-office scene that Kretschmann promptly threw them in the trash, explaining, 'I'll just file this here for safekeeping.' The revisions were later dropped.
The movie is largely based on the 1983 book 'Eichmann's Interrogated,' which contains the core of the 275 hours of pre-trial questioning of Eichmann by German-born, Israeli police officer Less, Avner W. whose actual voice is heard over the final credits.
According to CIA documents released in 2006, U.S. and West German intelligence knew that Eichmann was hiding in Argentina in 1958. But they revealed nothing, fearing he might expose former comrades who had been useful to the CIA or the German government.
Asked about her nudity in this and other films, Tereza Srbova said she saw nothing wrong with it. "Each of the films where I appeared naked was made by a director who I could trust that nudity had its justification in the script. Each dealt with some important topic that was worth communicating. For example, in Eichmann, nudity was not the most demanding. I was more concerned, how can I play a woman with whom I do not identify at all," the actress said.
