I heard the director’s accent and the penny dropped.
Most of his films were American, but in Germany he was part of the explosion of talent involved in Menschen am Sonntag (1930). He was Austrian himself. Both of his parents died in the Holocaust. I don't know about the rest of his family.
What was he saying in the documentary? I have never actually heard Zinnemann's voice; just read interviews with him.
