The Eichmann Show

I'm standing in front of the building where in only a few hours time, the trial of the century will begin.

Leo Hurwitz: Jesus, we're going to need every carpenter and plasterer in Jerusalem for this. Milton Fruchtman: And we've got three days to do it in. [to his driver] Just here on the left, please. [gets into the car] Leo, get some sleep. Leo Hurwitz: I may feel well enough to get the first plane back to New York. Milton Fruchtman: See you tomorrow.

Mrs. Landau: We listened all day, on the radio. When we first arrived, Mr Horowitz. Leo Hurwitz: 'Hurwitz.' Mrs. Landau: We did not speak about what had happened. But people ask us, "Who are you? What happened to you?" And so we told. And they say, "It cannot be true. You invent this. Such things are not possible." I say, "If I could make up such things, I would be in Hollywood, not running a cheap hotel in Jerusalem." But they do not believe, and so we stop speaking about what happened. Except to whisper it in our sleep. Since the trial begins, I see them listen now. On bus, in shops, in cafeteria, they listen. I go to market this morning, and a young girl asked me about my number. And they watch, yes? All over the world. Leo Hurwitz: So I'm told. Mrs. Landau: Because of you. Leo Hurwitz: Oh no, I... Mrs. Landau: Because of you. Because of you. Leo Hurwitz: Mrs. Landau, I can't. Really. Mrs. Landau: Please. Leo Hurwitz: Thank you.
