  • Seemingly every day I marvel at the role that chance plays in our lives and fate. Trace any important event in your life back far enough and you'll discover that it might not have happened at all if just one small and often uncontrollable thing in that timeline had gone a different way. Pause to look at your watch on the way to work one day and the few seconds it delays you could mean you don't get hit by that speeding lorry just a couple of minutes later. Or maybe you do get hit by it because you halted your journey for those few crucial moments. As an example, I feel comfortable in the knowledge that I'm with my current partner because I made a conscious effort to win her affections, but the circumstances that brought me to that location in that town at that time and led to us even being aware of each other's existence hang on the results of a seemingly infinite number of coin tosses. To perhaps more dramatically illustrate the point, my late mother's life was once saved because a particular doctor just happened to be passing the emergency room just as she was fading away, and made a suggestion that turned out to be the answer to a puzzle that had the attending staff bewildered. Had he been stopped and questioned by a colleague just a few minutes earlier, or turned left instead of right at a particular corridor or realised he'd left something back on the ward, my mother would have died.

  • I really enjoyed this film but do feel that a few things could've been done slightly better.

  • Following the suicide of an elderly Jewish man, investigative journalist Peter Miller sets out to hunt down an SS Captain and former concentration camp commander. In doing so he discovers that, despite allegations of war crimes, the former commander has become a man of importance in industry in post-war Germany, protected from prosecution by a powerful organisation of former SS members called Odessa.

  • One of those Nazi conspiracy thrillers that used to get made from time to time (thinking about it, Hollywood should probably have kept making those). Jon Voight is effective in his righteous paranoia as the lead, and there is lots of good European actors giving him support. It is based on one of those plot heavy Frederick Forsyth novels that makes more sense as thrillers on page, and I don’t think anyone involved quite figures out how to make Voight’s search more exciting than getting multiple info dumps. Ronald Neame directed in between 70s blockbusters in a workingman-like dull manner.
