They also made that novel into a movie, I think it was also called 'Mother Night'...I saw it long ago, and dont remember who was in it, but thanks for your reminder of the book...I had forgotten all about that...

I tried to watch that movie, IMHO, it was really bad....I would not recommend it at all, Nick Nolte (sp?) played the main character....I watched 3/4 of the way through....but it was so bad, I couldn't finish it. The book, however, is really good. I wrote a paper on it, comparing it with Slaughterhouse Five, on free will (Mother Night) vs. determinism (Slaughterhouse Five). The character in Mother Night makes a cameo appearance in Slaughterhouse Five (another required read...that was a weird book, I must say...). : )
