Audience Member Terrific dark humour. Made a big impression at the time, not least because Antony Sher (Jewish himself) put on some concentration camp 'pyjamas' and walked across a busy modern German square with no camera crew in view and apparently no public acknowledgement. Set in 1958 a former Nazi executioner has somehow become a senior police officer who has to investigate a series of knife killings where the victim has died with a smile on his face. The ghost of Cohn, who was killed by the police officer, undermines his sex life but, strangely, held to solve the murders. Some pathos and a strong anti-racist theme. Want to see it again - but where ? Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member "Odd" isn't even scraping the tone of this weird little movie. While Lindsay's character certainly deserves no pity, one is forced to deal with the basically sadistic behavior of Cohn who, although dead, has a REALLY big chip on his shoulder. How the two work together to solve the crime is quite fascinating. I saw this film years ago and I still think about it occasionally. Worth watching if you can find it.
