Expect to feel bummed out after watching this. Nothing good happens in this poor man's life. As a child his parents move to Berlin. He starts to write & he develops into a recognized playwrite. His parents move back to America. He stays in Germany & marries a famous actress. The war breaks out & he is approached by an American General who offers him a job as a spy. He takes it. After the war it becomes a problem for him to remain hidden. Jews & different countries want to find him & make an example out of him for what happened to the jews. They want to punish him. He wanders the world, trying not to be recognized. He finally can't take it anymore & turns himself in. In prison officials tell him to write his life story. They put him in a cell with a typewriter. After writing his memior in prison he uses the typewriter ribbon to hang himself. Expect to feel drained & bummed out at the end.
