Col. Picquart launched an
independent investigation,
and although court-
martialed and imprisoned
himself, played a key role in
ultimately proving Captain
Dreyfus' innocence.
"Picquart was a Catholic
aristocrat and a classic anti-
Semite," Richard Dreyfuss
told an audience of film and
television critics recently.
"He personally disliked
Dreyfus, yet he was able to
step away from his past and
his social class and risk his
career to defend a Jew.
Everybody else in L'Affaire
Dreyfus behaved in predic-
table ways. Picquart was the
only one who crossed over."
Although the actor is
probably not related to the
French army captain, the
similarity in names, as well
as the Jewish aspect, has
fueled Mr. Dreyfuss' lifelong
interest in the case. As the
film's co-producer, he has
been trying to get the project
produced for 10 years.
He is a fan of two earlier
Hollywood movies about the
case, The Life of Emile Zola
with Paul Muni and I Accuse
with Jose Ferrer. But Mr.
Dreyfuss said he found the
character of Lt. Col. Pic-
quart more fascinating than
that of Mr. Zola or Captain
Dreyfus.
One of Hollywood's most
outspoken and involved
Jews, the actor said the
Dreyfus case was one inci-
dent in "the long, sorry tra-
dition of anti-Semitism that
sees the Jew as alien and
suspect of double loyalty."
He said he sees differing
echoes of the case in both the
Watergate and Jonathan
Pollard affairs.
Theodor Herzl covered the
trial as a newspaper cor-
respondent and was so
shocked by the prevalence of
anti-Semitism in "civilized"
France that he turned from
an assimilated Jew to a
become the founder of
modern Zionism.
But Mr. Herzl won't even
have a walk-on part in

Prisoners of Honor.
"I already played Herzl as
a nine-year old at the Jewish
Community Center," the
actor quipped.
The 90-minute film was
shot entirely in England
under the direction of Ken
Russell. The Anglo-
American cast includes Ol-
iver Reed, Peter Firth,
Jeremy Kemp and Brian
Blessed, with Kenneth Col-
ley as Captain Dreyfus.
It will be shown first on
the Home Box Office (HBO)
cable system in November
and probably will be releas-
ed as a theatrical film in
Europe and Israel in 1992. 0
