The dramatic sins committed in The Man in the Glass Booth are formidable on their own, but coupled with the creator's specious arguments about the world situation, the film becomes intolerable.

Films like Judgment at Nuremberg began with the assumption that morality could be upheld and responsibility assigned. The Man in the Glass Booth is an infinitely more despairing work.

Product Description:
This adaptation of Robert Shaw's A DELICATE BALANCE was part of the American Film Theater series, conceived in the 1970s by producer Ely Landau, and meant to be shown theatrically just like a play, with tickets sold in advance. Arthur Goldman stars as an eccentric Jewish tycoon who watches over his financial empire from a Manhattan penthouse. However, when Israeli agents arrest Goldman and put him on trial as Adolph Dorf, a former concentration commandant, his vitriolic diatribes take on a whole new meaning. Featuring an exceptional performance by Maximilian Schell, THE MAN IN THE GLASS BOOTH is a searing and thought provoking drama.
