Assassination

For Screen and Country

This week, the boys once again return to one of the most evil Nazis this side of the Reichstag... that being Reinhard Heydrich and the stranglehold he maintained over Czechoslovakia. Thankfully, these films are about him being killed! And do we have a doozy for you this week - 1965's Assassination, an honest-to-God Czech film about the whole operation which also comes with a bonus of some Czech actors playing Brits with hilarious accents! The guys talk about the most accurate representation of Heydrich's demise, the interesting use of upbeat, jaunty music, the harrowing and violent final sequence and much more.

Next week: going to the movies with Mr. Hopkins!
