Martin Landau was a supporting player in a very, very chilling movie called Remember (2015). Christopher Plummer was the lead. It wasn’t a famous movie and I saw it a few months ago. It’s unlikely people will see it, but I’m putting spoiler wraps around this. In an old folks home, an old Jewish man with dementia has lost his wife. His friend (Landau) reminds him that he promised to go look for a Nazi they had both seen in a concentration camp. This Nazi had killed their family members in the camp. Plummer was still physically healthy enough to travel, but he needed to read constant notes to remind him of his mission. These were notes from Landau whose brain was still sharp as a tack.
Plummer is tracking a name that was changed in America and he has some misadventures along the way but he finally arrives at the house of an elderly guy and Plummer recognizes his voice from the concentration camp.
The guy is real and his family (daughter, granddaughter) had no idea he was a Nazi. He had a camp number tattooed on his forearm.
Big tense argument ensues and it turns out that the guy in the house is a different Nazi. He was the partner of Plummer. They had consecutive camp number tattoos on their arms. They had escaped by pretending to be Jews.
Plummer himself was the guy he was sent to find although the changed name he carried had been given to the other Nazi.
Plummer hadn’t remembered that he wasn’t really a Holocaust survivor. His dementia had concealed it.
Plummer killed the other Nazi right there and then said, “I remember” before killing himself.
At the old folks home, people were shocked at the news but Landau explained that he had recognized Plummer as the Nazi when he moved there. He knew Plummer had dementia and Plummer’s wife was more sickly than Plummer, so Landau waited.
Then he sent Plummer to find the other Nazi and himself by remembering when he saw the other guy.
Damn - it was a very chilling ending. Landau and Plummer were great in it, though.
