This is such a disturbing song when you realise what it's actually about. At least it's based on true events, otherwise i'd think Randy Newman may need some help.
I wanted to add that I feel very stupid...I heard this song 20 years ago and since then had always thought it was about a man whose daughter died in a concentration camp, and he was waiting to die so he could be with her ("I'm looking at the river but I'm thinking of the sea"). Wow...I was a little off-base there.
Whew! It's a relief to hear that--I was really worried I couldn't do it justice.
Randy Newman is sorely underappreciated as a songwriter, and this movie should be seen by a lot more people. Lots and lots. Peter Lorre...good grief. What an amazing actor he was.

I wouldn't say that's off base. The song is vague, sad, creepy and beautiful and that a beautiful, sad interpretation. It fits.

Oh, this was wonderfully done, and made a huge point. I am sobbing. Thanks for creating this clip.

Every time I hear this song it makes my flesh creep. This movie is the perfect match to the song, very well done narfpoit.

Excellent idea to link the film to that song. I think you should make an extra effort to make the video even better. Thank you anyway.

I've seen this movie. I saw it in a theater somewhere
a few years ago... In NEW BRUNSWICK, N.J.
at the a University theater at one of the branch
campi. Peter Lorre's characters were tremendously
influencial on both horror/ and comedy
from the 40's-70's and today

He was a seriously awesome actor and it's a shame he didn't have the opportunity to play roles other than just horror and scary gangster guys.
I wish his movies were easier to find on DVD nowadays.
