  • Der Rest ist Schweigen (The Rest is Silence)

    By on

    Director Helmut Käutner transposes Hamlet to post-war Germany: John H. Claudius (Hardy Krüger) returns from America manically-obsessed by the idea that his father was not killed in an air raid, but was murdered.

    The film features many references to Shakespeare's original. Käutner's 'Der Rest ist Schweigen' (The Rest is Silence) is not only a thriller, it is also a critique of the war-profiteering of German industry during the Second World War, telling the age-old story of revenge and madness within a modern context.
