Mysterious Brother
Sorry...should have posted this as a new topic.
I don't know whether you people will agree with me, but right from the time this brother of Barbara's was introduced, Szabo seemed to indicate some kind of mystery. Remember, the first time we see him, we observe him standing leaning against the door frame with a slight smile on his face. Barabara also seemed to be pretty attached to this brother of her's. But we don't hear a single dialogue spoken by this brother. Considering how important the brother was to the life of Barbara, and also....was Hoefgen jealous of him? can't be sure.....the brother seemed to be always accompanying the sister, it seems mysterious why the relationship wasn't explained with a little more detail. But maybe, it would have digressed from the main plot, but one cannot help feeling, Hoefgen did not like this brother from day one. Does it have anything to do with his very 'Aryan' features? I may be in troubled waters here as my idea of Aryan physiognomy may be based on stereo types...I'm not a German.
