The scene in Judgment at Nuremberg with Schell and Montgomery Clift are some one of the finest moments ever put on film.

We didn’t reply to the exorcism reference because obviously, it didn’t work.

...and I used to get Horst Bucholz mixed up with John C. Holmes, but maybe just because of the name.

Horst was in my favorite movie, "One Two Three." Story was though during the filming, he and Cagney did not get along.

He played Nazi officers better than anyone else because he made them despicable.

I think Horst was also the young hot headed gun fighter in The Magnificent Seven.

Captain Stransky certainly fits the ‘despicable’ role. (Cross of Iron).

Horst was also in one of my favorite movies, THE MAGNIFICENT SEVEN, with that other typical American cowboy, Yul Brynner.

Until now, I always thought Col. Brandt (James Mason) in Cross of Iron was Max Schell.
