Iron Cross

Iron Cross (2009)

Joseph, a retired New York police officer and Holocaust survivor, travels to Nuremberg to visit his son Ronnie years after turning his back on him for rejecting a promising career in the NYPD and marrying a local artist, Anna. No sooner does Joseph attempt to heal the rift with Ronnie then he swears that living in the apartment above, under the false name of Shrager, is the now aging SS Commander who slaughtered his entire family during World War II. With little hope of seeing him stand trial, Joseph talks Ronnie into exacting justice - and vengeance - and together they set out to kill him.

Anecdotes

Beautiful Blue Eyes is a 2009 English thriller film written and directed by Joshua Newton. It stars Roy Scheider in his final role as a retired police detective who believes he has found the Nazi officer who slaughtered his family in World War II. Scott Cohen, Alexander Newton, Calita Rainford, Sarah Bolger, Anna Polony, and Helmut Berger appear in supporting roles.

Production

Newton developed the script from a concept involving his father, Bruno Newton. Joshua asked himself what his father would do in the event that he discovered the man who murdered his family during the Holocaust. The character of Joseph, played by Roy Scheider, is loosely based on Bruno Newton. Alexander Newton, son of Joshua and grandson of Bruno, played the young Joseph during World War II.

As Scheider died before production was finished, some of his scenes were completed utilizing CGI techniques.
