Der Schrei der Eule

After having watched the more famous French adaptation with Mathilda May (which was disappointing), I had no high hopes for this version and was pleasantly surprised.

Matthias Habich is great in every single role I've watched him so far.

Hans Christian Blech had a small, but impressive role as a doctor.

Jacques Breuer must have been at the beginning of his acting career.

Gernot Endemann was famous in the Inge Meysel mini TV series "Die Unverbesserlichen" as her son Rudi Scholz.

I've read the Patricia Highsmith novel decades ago, so I don't remember if there was this much happening. In any case it's a lot more suspenseful and action-laden than the Mathilda May version which is rather dull.
