A West German film production of Cat and Mouse was released in 1969, starring Lars and Peter Brandt, the sons of ex-chancellor Willy Brandt, for whom Grass tirelessly campaigned in the elections of 1965 and 1969. Directed by Hansjurgen Pohland, the film caused much outrage because of a masturbation scene, and was not notably successful. The West German/ French co-production of The Tin Drum in 1979, however, was a tremendous success. Director Volker Schlondorff stuck closely to the novel and chose the perfect Oskar in David Bennent.
