The film “Operation Finale” is 5 years old: director Chris Weitz and crew look back on the hunt for Eichmann.
The film Operation Finale was released in cinemas five years ago today. Orton wrote the screenplay, based on a series of first-hand accounts from people who had been directly involved in the operation.
Orton did not write the film with any actors in mind, although he probably could not have dreamed up a better cast: Oscar Isaac (Peter Malkin), Sir Ben Kingsley (Adolf Eichmann), Mélanie Laurent (Hanna Regev), Nick Kroll (Rafi Eitan) and Lior Raz (Isser Harel), among others.
Costume designer: Connie Balduzzi.
Costumes: Peris Costumes.
It was an honour and a pleasure for Peris to be part of this project. We produced a lot of things in Argentina, and what I couldn’t get locally, I rented from the costume house Peris Costumes, based in Madrid (Spain),” says Connie. The most important items from Peris were the Nazi uniforms (seen in retrospective scenes from World War II) and the “El Al” flight crew costumes.”
