The Man Who Captured Eichmann


The Man Who Captured Eichmann is an American 1996 television film about the capture of Nazi war criminal Adolf Eichmann by the Israeli secret service Mossad. The film aired on the TNT Network. The film stars Robert Duvall, who produced the film, plus Jeffrey Tambor and Arliss Howard.

The film ends with the takeoff of the El Al aircraft taking Eichmann to face trial in Jerusalem. In real life, this aircraft was a turboproppowered Bristol Britannia. However, the Britannia aircraft had a very short operational life, due to passenger demand for jets, and none were available for the movie. A Boeing 707320B was therefore used instead, even though that particular marque of 707 did not fly until 1962.
