Advance notice required for access. Biographical note Grete Mosheim was born on 8 January 1905 in Berlin, Germany. She was educated at the Viktoria Lyzeum, and in the school of the Deutschen Theaters from 1922 to 1931. Although her first attempts on the stage were not very well received, she established a connection with Max Reinhardt. In 1922 Reinhardt gave Mosheim -- who at that time was seventeen - the chance to substitute in the American play "The speaking ape" when the female lead became ill. Within twenty-four hours Mosheim learned the difficult role from Albert Bassermann and became literally over night a superstar -- "die Mosheim". Until 1933 she ruled the Berlin theatre scene appearing in widely varied roles; she was equally at home in drama and comedy. She married her costar Oscar Homolka; they divorced in 1933. In 1924 Mosheim for the first time played in a film - "Michael". The next nine years brought her interesting roles in important films like "Dreyfus" (1930) and "Yorck" (1931). Mosheim emigrated to London in 1933. After overcoming the language barrier with intensive study of English, she found a role in London in 1934 in "Two Share a Dwelling" with Alice Campbell. It became a special success for Mosheim, because she met the American railroad king Howard Gould, who had financed the performance, and who became in 1937 her second husband. Mosheim accompanied Gould to New York in 1938. Acceding to Gould's desire she spend more time with him, she retired from acting for a few years, but in 1941 she returned to the stage and was one of the founders of the German-speaking ensemble "The Players from Abroad". Mosheim and Gould divorced in 1947. She appeared in Germany for the first time after the war in 1952, and visited many cities playing leading roles in pieces by modern American dramatists such as Eugene O'Neill, Thornton Wilder, Tennessee Williams, and John van Druten. She did not appear in films, however, other than a few individual television appearances. Grete Mosheim died on 29 December 1986. Filmography 1. Moritz, lieber Moritz (1978) ....

The so-called Golden Twenties FFILMILM FILM however was also a decade in which Germany had to deal with the aftermath of the First World War. Film CULTURE CULTURE Front Weimar shows how Germany tried to reconcile IN TRANSITION IN TRANSITION the horrendous experiences of the war through the war films made between 1919 and 1933. These films shed light on the way Ger- many chose to remember its recent past. A body of twenty-five films is analysed. For insight into the understanding and reception of these films at the time, hundreds of film reviews, censorship re- ports and some popular history books are discussed. This is the first rigorous study of these hitherto unacknowledged war films. The chapters are ordered themati- cally: war documentaries, films on the causes of the war, the front life, the war at sea and the home front.

  • Dämonische Doppelgänger
    Dämonische Doppelgänger Stefan Andriopoulos Dämonische Doppelgänger Frühes Kino und das Recht am eigenen Bild »Ein Portrait, eine Photographie, ist zweifellos ein Doppelgänger.« Lucien Lévy-Bruhl: Die Seele der Primitiven (1927) 1913 kamen zwei ›Lichtspiele‹, die häufig als die ersten deutschen ›Kunstfilme‹ bezeichnet werden, in die Kinos.1 Beide Filme, Max Macks Der Andere und Stellan Ryes Der Student von Prag, handelten von gespaltener Persönlichkeit und dämonischen Doppelgängern. Ihre Geschichten können auch als meta- filmischer Kommentar zum prekären Status der ›lebenden Bilder‹ des Kinema- tographen gelesen werden. Macks Der Andere, dessen Premiere am 21. Januar in den »Berliner Lichtspielen« stattfand, beruhte auf einem Theaterstück des Autors Paul Lindau und erzeugte großes Aufsehen, da die Hauptrolle von ei- nem berühmten Theaterschauspieler gespielt wurde.2 Albert Bassermann ar- beitete mit Max Reinhardt am Deutschen Theater und hatte zwei Jahre zuvor den ›Iffland-Ring‹ erhalten, der ihn als bedeutendsten deutschsprachigen Schau- spieler auszeichnete. Nahezu kein Theaterkritiker ließ sich die Gelegenheit ent- gehen, den renommierten Bühnendarsteller auf einer Kinoleinwand zu sehen, so daß in den Tagen nach der Premiere Filmbesprechungen erstmals in den Feuilletons angesehener Zeitungen erschienen3 – ein enormer Gewinn an kul- turellem Prestige für das neue Medium, auch wenn viele Rezensenten Bassermanns »Seitensprung in den Kintop« verurteilten, oder sich genötigt sa- hen zu versichern, daß Bassermanns Spiel Kunst sei, obwohl es sich um einen Film handele.4 Die Geringschätzung, mit der das Kino zu diesem Zeitpunkt betrachtet wur- de, wird auch in einem Aufsatz des konservativen Kulturkritikers Hermann Duenschmann deutlich, der 1912 – gerade einmal ein Jahr zuvor – verlangt hatte: »Wer für den [sic] Kino gearbeitet hat, muß aus dem Schauspielerstande ausgeschlossen werden.«5 Duenschmann betonte den Gegensatz von Theater und Film, indem er am Kino das »für den Schauspieler geradezu verhängnisvol- le Moment der mechanischen [.

  • CLASSIC POSTERS and FILMS of GERMAN CINEMA's GOLDEN AGE on VIEW at Moma in FEBRUARY
    y The Museum of Modern Art Department of Film 11 West 53 Street, New York, N.Y. 10019 Tel: 212-708-9400 Coble: MODERNART Telex: 62370 MODART #2 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CLASSIC POSTERS AND FILMS OF GERMAN CINEMA'S GOLDEN AGE ON VIEW AT MoMA IN FEBRUARY Rare, original posters from the "golden age" of German silent film will go on view at The Museum of Modern Art on February 15 in the exhibition JOSEF FENNEKER: CINEMA POSTERS FROM BERLIN. In conjunction with this wall exhibition, the Department of Film will also show a series of 14 works by directors, actors, writers, composers, and producers who fled Berlin after the Nazi takeover. The film series—titled BERLIN EXILES--will be on view in the Roy and Niuta Titus Theater 2 from February 15 through March 11. During the early 1920s, a new poster by the master graphic artist Josef Fenneker would hit the streets of Berlin almost every week. With their elements of Expression­ ism (the distorted figures rendered in jagged, sweeping contours against shadowy backgrounds), their severe light, cool colors, and elements of Art Nouveau (or Jugendstil, as it was called in Germany), these posters represent both an outstanding body of graphic design and a documentary record of German cinema at its most innova­ tive and influential. Some two dozen of these posters, on loan from the Stiftung Deutsche Kinemathek, will be on view at the Museum. Fenneker (1895-1956) was not only one of the most prolific poster artists of the Weimar period but was also known throughout Europe as a set and costume designer, working with numerous stage companies all over the Continent.

  • The Distribution, Censorship and Reception of German Films in Soviet Russia of the 1920S
    Natalja Poljakowa The Distribution, Censorship and Reception of German films in Soviet Russia of the 1920s School of Modern Languages, Literatures & Cultures Royal Holloway, University of London, United Kingdom A dissertation submitted in fulfilment of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy 2015 2 Declaration I declare that this dissertation was composed by myself, the work contained herein is my own except where explicitly stated otherwise in the text and that this work has not been submitted for any other degree or professional qualification except as specified. Natalja Poljakowa 3 Abstract Despite the huge amount of research on European cinema of the 1920s, little attention has been paid to the influence of cross-cultural encounters on the trajectory of national film histories. This study argues that Soviet film was shaped by the reception of German film to an extent that existing scholarship has not acknowledged. It focuses on the impact of German and Austrian films on the revival of the Soviet film industry in the period of the New Economic Policy. German films helped to fill in the gaps in Soviet film distribution, as until the mid- 1920s Soviet Russia was not able to revive its own film production and entirely relied on foreign film imports. However, all imported films were thoroughly examined, classified and, in most of cases, ‘adjusted’ to the Soviet ideology through re-editing. This thesis explores previously ignored aspects of the film exchange between the Weimar Republic and Soviet Russia: the process of selection and purchase, the censorship control over content, the reception of the films in little-known periodicals and film brochures and, finally, the influence of the imported productions on the Soviet audience.

  • Asta Nielsen
    Asta Nielsen Also Known As: Asta Nielsen-Gad Lived: September 11, 1881 - May 24, 1972 Worked as: film actress, film company owner, producer, theatre actress Worked In: Denmark, Germany by Julie Allen Frequently lauded as “die Duse des Kinos” [the Duse of the cinema], as Poul Elsner noted in Weltrundschau in 1911 (517), the Danish actress Asta Nielsen was the first major star of German silent film. She acted in more than seventy films, all but four of them made with German production companies, during the twenty-two years of her film career. The phenomenal success of her debut film, Afgrunden/The Abyss (1910) enabled her to become the first global film star under the new monopoly distribution system. From 1910 to 1914, she collaborated closely with director Urban Gad, who was also her first husband, under the auspices of Deutsche Bioscop and Projektions-AG “Union” (PAGU), and later established two film companies of her own. Although she struggled to come to terms with the director-centric turn of the film industry in Germany in the 1920s that restricted the artistic autonomy she had enjoyed in the 1910s, she made several of her most artistically impressive films, including several Weimar street films, during this period. In 1932, she acted in her only sound film, Unmögliche Liebe/Impossible Love, which was also her final film, aside from two documentaries about her made decades later. Nielsen’s path to film was as unlikely as it was dramatic.
