Daniel Craig - Genghis Cohn (1993) - Part 8

A&E Television first aired Genghis Cohn in 1993. It features a VERY young Daniel Craig in the supporting role of Lieutenant Guth. Below is a synopsis of the movie. Enjoy!


Antony Sher as Genghis Cohn, a Jewish music-hall comedian whose World War II death was ordered by Nazi officer Otto Schatz (Robert Lindsay). Years later, Schatz is living the life of a highly respected police commissioner in the small town of Licht when Cohn's ghost returns to haunt him. And not just haunt him-to taunt him, to ridicule him unmercifully, to turn him into a suicidal laughingstock. There's a subplot about a series of murders Schatz is investigating, and a religious conversion that has to be seen to be believed. All this, plus Diana Rigg as a wittily zaftig widow pursuing Schatz-what more could you want?
