Operation Finale Trailer
In the 1960s, Israeli agents traveled to Argentina, where many Nazis had fled after World War II. They had one specific target in mind: Adolf Eichmann, the Nazi officer who was in charge of the mass deportation of Jews to concentration camps. The agents captured Eichmann, and then had to deal with the problem of smuggling him out of Argentina to stand trial in Israel.
This true story gets the big screen treatment inOperation Finale, an intense new thriller from director Chris Weitz. Weitz seems like an odd fit for this subject matter – his previous directing credits includeTwilight Saga: New Moon,The Golden Compassand the firstAmerican Piefilm. He also co-wroteRogue One: A Star Wars Story. While those credits might not suggest a film of this nature, this trailer looks promising.
At the very least,Operation Finaleis going to be a showcase for Oscar Isaac, playing Mossad agent Peter Malkin, and Ben Kingsley, playing Eichmann. The subject matter, and the performances, suggest the type of movie studios love to push towards the end of the year for awards season. ButOperation Finaleis arriving at the tail-end of summer. Make of that what you will.
