After the fall of Hitler’s Germany, Campbell’s government friends arrange for a quiet life in the United States. His life is quiet until a complex web of spies and neo-Nazis draws him back into the life which he once led. Eventually captured by the Isralies, Campbell’s one defense was: “I was an American Spy.”.

Enjoy the Movie – Don’t Try to Find the Book
If you’ve read Mother Night and enjoyed it so much (as I did) that you just have to see the movie, understand that you have to understand a fundamental element of Vonngut’s writing – that beyond his story lies Vonnegut himself, and that you can’t put a human mind on the screen. His whit and humor just cannot be transcribed by a screenplay or even the best acting performance. I believe that this movie exceeds in asking the key questions that Vonnegut poses in his book, but those frequent cynical moments of satire found on the page are not found on the screen. Does this mean that the movie misses the mark? Of course not. In my opinion, the movie succeeds because it does not try to recreate the experience of reading the book (this is not a medium for those too lazy to turn a page). It succeeds because it takes the fundamental elements of a story created by one of America’s true artistic treasures and presents it in a a framework without pretense. I’ve seen other movie versions of Vonnegut books where the director obviously tries to channel Vonnegut’s genius and loses grip on his own craft. I would not place this movie as one of the best I’ve seen, but it stands on its own legs as one well worth watching. By taking Vonnegut’s “voice” out of the movie’s narration or trying to insert it however it can, Mother Night tells his story brilliantly, and preserves the story’s fundamental lessons without confusion, distraction, or disappointment.
