Three producers were reported today to be planning films based on the track down and seizure of Adolf Eichmann, Hitler’s mass murder specialist.

Bryan Foy, in his first film for Paramount, plans to produce “The Eichmann Trackdown,” with filming to start in about eight weeks. The Mirisch Company is planning “The Adolf Eichmann Story” for United Artists. Twentieth-Century Fox will make “Adolf Eichmann, Nazi War Criminal,” for which it has put in a bid for film rights to the story of Tuvia Friedman, head of the Haifa war crimes documentation center.
