Entertaining and suspenseful thriller about terrible experiments carried out by Joseph Menguele
Based on Ira Levin (Rosemary’s baby)’s readable novel , this is an exciting thriller about The Doctor “Joseph Méngüele”, (Gregory Peck), known member of the Nazi party German, and cruel medic of the concentration camp of Auschwitz . He escaped and pursued by the Mossad took refuge in Paraguay and Brazil after the fall of the Third Reich. There in South America get together a group of young people, militants of the Third Reich, to work in a strange issue in which he can proceed their repugnant experiments. Menguele attempts to reconstitute the Nazi movement from his Brazilian sanctuary cloning of boys’ genes . A young American, “Barry Kohler” (Steven Guttemberg), contact with the Nazi hunter “Ezra Liebermann” ,( a Simon Wiesental-alike ,magnificently played by Laurence Olivier) , helped by his sister (Lilli Palmer), who begin to investigate and discover the horrible plan of “Méngüele .

The storyline based on genetic engineering resulted to be revolutionary for its day , so it was a mythical picture in its time, and had too much impact , his importance lies mostly in its scientist approach . At that time cloning was on initial developing and Ira Levin was the first author who wrote about this sensational and dangerous scientific discovery , almost science-fiction with moral dilemma included. The screenplay by Heywood Gould takes many licenses and is less developed than the successful novel of Ira Levin, but gets certain tension and amusement . ¨The Boys From Brazil” is a suspense movie that amuses and entertains , has good taste and in general lines is above average . Story is not boring , neither tiring but is entertaining at any time, though it is true that turns into a picture that tends to underline its latent absurdities and entangled in his ending . In the picture appears some of the best actors of all time, the three principals as Laurence Olivier, James Mason and an awesome Gregory Peck who however overacting in some scenes . Good supporting cast full of fine players usual in Nazis roles as Walter Gotell , Joachin Hansen ,Wofgang Preiss, Gunter Meisner and Uta Hagen as brutal concentration camp chief. Plus prestigious veteran actors as John Dehner , Michael Gough , Bruno Ganz and Denholm Elliott , among others. Special mention to unpleasant ,repulsive boy , well interpreted by Jeremy Black. The soundtrack by the classic musician Jerry Goldsmith, is the most part of time lively and nicely like is heard at the beginning and the end of the movie , nevertheless in some moments he composes strangely, perhaps attempting to remind Puccini and other musicians so admired by Mengele, but conveys us a mirth that it is not fitting to the plot. Furthermore , it packs magnificent and colorful visuals by French cameraman Henry Decae .

Franklin J. Schaffner directed excellent motion pictures as “The Planet of the Apes”, “Patton,” “Papillon”, “Nicholas and Alexandra”, after the flop of his film titled ” Islands in the Stream “, in which went on to coincide with the actor of “Patton,” George C. Scott, decided to embark on a project more commercial and successful as “The Boys From Brazil” . Rating : Better than average , worthwhile watching .

Has Ham Suddenly Become Kosher ?
I didn’t thunk much of this movie and much of the blame should be centered on Ira Levin’s source novel . Someone rightly points out that personality is possibly more to do with environment that genetics , so how come nobody realises that Nazi Germany wasn’t all down to Hitler ? I’m thinking of millions of Germans who fought and lost a world war from 1914 to 1918 and tens of millions of Germans being affected by the terms of the Versaille treaty . Hitler himself fought in the war and was lying in hospital when the war ended and all these factors had far more importance in the creation of Nazi Germany than Hitler’s father being a civil servant . In other words Levin’s plot is totally ludicrous to say the least .

Apart from the silly plot the main problem with the film version of BOYS FROM BRAZIL is the acting and it’s quite ironic that with a story centered around Jews that there’s so much ham on display . Really the acting is really awful , so bad that you can’t help laughing at the performances . Laurence Olivier gives possibly the worst performance of his career while Gregory Peck seems to be giving an impersonation of Basil Fawlty , oh gawd even James Mason is bad and that’s not something I can say lightly

Yeah this is an entertaining movie but if you’re making a thriller it’s vital that you thrill the audience and not have them rolling in the aisles with something that feels like it’s a sequel to THE PRODUCERS . How amusing is it Theo ? It’s so amusing that I burst out laughing when someone made the very predictable cry of ” Help get a doctor ” – ” I am a doctor you idiot “
