Synopsis
Millionaire Jewish entrepreneur Arthur Goldman (Maximilian Schell) benvolently rules his financial empire from a penthouse apartment overlooking Manhattan. Seemingly at the edge of sanity, Goldman holds forth on everyting from Papal edicts to ex-wives, from baseball to his family´s massacre in a Nazi concentration camp. When Goldman remarks on a blue Mercedes continuously parked outside his building, Goldman´s captive audience of assistant (Lawrence Pressman) and chauffeur (Henry Brown) dismiss their boss´ anxiety as encroaching paranoia. But each of Goldman´s passionate, seemingly capricious ravings are transformed into a shocking, inadvertent deposition when Israeli agents capture Goldman and put him on trial as Adolph Dorf, the commandant of the concentration camp where Goldman´s family was supposedly exterminated. In a trial scene of unrelenting intensity, Academy Award© winner Schell (Judgement at Nuremberg) crafts what the Detroit Free Press called "a white-hot lead performance," mutating from eccentric Goldman to sociopath Dorf and beyond. The riddle of Dorf´s true identity becomes wrapped in an enigma of cunning self-treachery and single-minded obsesión..
