Review
An Oscar winning documentary that works as well as any big-screen drama. During the 1972 Munich Olympics a militant Palestinean group entered the athletes' village and took 11 Israeli athletes hostages. What followed was a catalogue of errors that, if the event had not ended so tragically, makes this one of the finest black comedies ever made. The Keystone cop mentality of the Munich police has to be seen and heard to be believed - truth is stranger than fiction. A must watch.
