The Eichmann Show Page #8

Synopsis: In 1961 former Nazi Adolf Eichmann is captured by Jewish agents and put on trial. American television producer Milton Fruchtman fervently believes that the trial with its witness accounts of Nazi atrocities should be televised to show the world the evils of the Holocaust and to combat any resurgence of Nazism and joins forces with black-listed director Leo Hurwitz. Despite death threats, reluctance to cooperate from several networks and even resistance from the Israeli prime minister David Ben-Gurion, who fears a 'show trial', the pair persist and move their cameras into the court-room. Edited daily and shown in some three dozen countries the 'Eichmann Show' becomes the first ever global television documentary.

to pieces, we will still march.

I have ten thousand Jews from

some Eastern provinces or other.

In accordance with my

proposal, and since I was no

longer able to run a

transport by rail from there

I had them march from Budapest to the

lower Austrian border in a foot march.

I had the order from the

Chief of the Security

Police and the Security

Service to this effect.

It is true that I could never have issued

such an order myself. I did propose this.'

You did propose this, correct?

Hold on Eichmann.

I admit that much, yes.

- Hausner's got him.

- He's lost. He's lost.

Well done, everybody.

Great job.

In the courtroom at

Jerusalem, nearly four

months have passed since

the jurors retired...

Even if the defendant did

act out of blind obedience

a man who took part in crimes

of such magnitude for years

should endure the greatest

punishment known to law.

This court sentences

Adolf Eichmann to death.

We did it.

For each of us who has

ever felt that God

created us better than

any other human being

has stood on the threshold

where Eichmann once stood.

And each of us who has allowed

the shape of another person's nose

or the colour of their skin, or the

manner in which they worship their god

to poison our feelings toward them

has known the loss of reason

that led Eichmann to his madness

For this was how it all began,

with those who did these things.
