1975PG116 minutes
Arthur Goldman (Maximillian Schell), a Jewish businessman living in 1965 Manhattan, is kidnapped by a group of Israeli underground agents who put him on trial as a Nazi war criminal. Goldman protests and claims he was actually a Holocaust victim. But he soon begins to revel in the notion that he is, in fact, the man they've been hunting and it's not a misunderstanding. This is an American Film Theatre adaptation of Robert Shaw's play.

Okay, I hated this film, but only after watching 4 minutes. I went back and was actually quite taken with it. So the advise...watch it..ALL
This is a puzzle one needs to solve, but cannot until the very end. So compelling and Max does a fabulous job of Juxtaposition
