  • 1 Veit Harlan and Jud Süß – Conrad Veidt and Jew Süss Veit Harlan And
    1 Veit Harlan and Jud Süß – Conrad Veidt and Jew Süss Veit Harlan and Conrad Veidt were both associated with the flowering of German stage and cinema in the Weimar Republic. Veidt, born in 1893, was already a major figure, starring in productions like The Cabinet of Dr.Caligari that made cinema history. Harlan, seven years younger, was beginning to make a name for himself on the stage. When Hitler came to power their paths diverged diametrically. Harlan was an opportunist, made his peace with the regime and acquired a reputation as a director of films. Later he and his second wife, Hilde Körber, became friends of Goebbels. In April 1933 Conrad Veidt, who had just married his Jewish third wife, Lily Prager, left Germany after accepting the role of the German Commandant in the British film I was a Spy . When he returned to Germany the Nazis detained him to stop him taking the lead role in the projected British Jew Süss film. He eventually got out, but his acceptance of the role made the breach with his native country irrevocable. Six years later Harlan was persuaded by Goebbels to take on the direction of Jud Süß , the most notorious but also one of the most successful of the films made under the auspices of the Nazi Propaganda Ministry. Kristina Söderbaum, then his wife, took the female lead. In the meantime Conrad Veidt had moved to Hollywood and in 1942 appeared as Major Strasser, the German officer, in Casablanca , a role for which he is probably best known in the Anglo-Saxon world.

I had not worked with Dr. Hagemann before this process; she took a chance on me by becoming my advisor. I thought that I would be unable to pursue an honors thesis. By being my advisor, she made this experience possible. Her interest and dedication to my work exceeded my expectations. My thesis greatly benefited from her input. Thank you, Dr. Hagemann, for your generosity with your time and genuine interest in this thesis and its success. Thank you to Dr. Fitz Brundage for his helpful comments and willingness to be my second reader. I would also like to thank Dr. Michelle King for her valuable suggestions and support throughout this process. I am very grateful for Dr. Hagemann and Dr. King. Thank you both for keeping me motivated and believing in my work. Thank you to my roommates, Julia Wunder, Waverly Leonard, and Jamie Antinori, for being so supportive. They understood when I could not be social and continued to be there for me. They saw more of the actual writing of this thesis than anyone else. Thank you for being great listeners and wonderful friends. Thank you also to my parents, Joe and Krista Brady, for their unwavering encouragement and trust in my judgment. I would also like to thank my sister, Mahlon Brady, for being willing to hear about subjects that are out of her sphere of interest.

  • The Importance of the Weimar Film Industry Redacted for Privacy Abstract Approved: Christian P
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS Tamara Dawn Goesch for the degree of Master of Arts in Interdisciplinary Studies in Foreign Languages and Litera- tures (German), Business, and History presented on August 12, 1981 Title: A Critique of the Secondary Literature on Weimar Film; The Importance of the Weimar Film Industry Redacted for Privacy Abstract approved: Christian P. Stehr Only when all aspects of the German film industry of the 1920's have been fully analyzed and understood will "Weimar film" be truly comprehensible. Once this has been achieved the study of this phenomenon will fulfill its po- tential and provide accurate insights into the Weimar era. Ambitious psychoanalytic studies of Weimar film as well as general filmographies are useful sources on Wei- mar film, but the accessible works are also incomplete and even misleading. Theories about Weimar culture, about the group mind of Weimar, have been expounded, for example, which are based on limited rather than exhaustive studies of Weimar film. Yet these have nonetheless dominated the literature because no counter theories have been put forth. Both the deficiencies of the secondary literature and the nature of the topic under study--the film media--neces- sitate that attention be focused on the films themselves if the mysteries of the Weimar screenare to be untangled and accurately analyzed. Unfortunately the remnants of Weimar film available today are not perfectsources of information and not even firsthand accounts in othersour- ces on content and quality are reliable. However, these sources--the films and firsthand accounts of them--remain to be fully explored. They must be fully explored if the study of Weimar film is ever to advance.

  • Carmen Cartellieri
    Carmen Cartellieri Also Known As: Franziska Ottilia Cartellieri, Carmen Teschen, Mrs. Emanuel Ziffer Edler von Teschenbruck, Mrs. Mano Ziffer-Teschenbruck Lived: June 28, 1891 - October 17, 1953 Worked as: co-screenwriter, film actress, producer, theatre actress Worked In: Austria, Germany, Hungary by Robert von Dassanowsky Carmen Cartellieri was born Franziska Ottilia Cartellieri in Prossnitz, Austria-Hungary, which is today Prostejov, Czech Republic, but spent her childhood in Innsbruck, Austria. In 1907, at age sixteen, she married the aristocratic artist-turned-director, Emanuel Ziffer Edler von Teschenbruck. Her husband and Cornelius Hintner, a cameraman from South Tyrol who had worked for Pathé in Paris and then as a director in Hungary, helped make her one of the most fashionable stars in German-language film of the 1920s. Using the stage name of Carmen Teschen, she appeared in several Hungarian silent films between 1918 and 1919 and made her Austrian film debut in Hintner’s Die Liebe vom Zigeunerstamme/The Gypsy Girl (1919), which she reportedly cowrote. Political changes in postwar Hungary made her relocate to Vienna where she returned to her exotic surname, suggesting to the press that she was born in Italy, and founded the Cartellieri-Film company in 1920 with her husband and Hintner. The first two Cartellieri-Film productions in Vienna transferred her Hungarian fame into true stardom. Carmen lernt Skifahren/Carmen Learns to Ski (1920), a broad comedy directed by her husband, now known as Mano Ziffer-Teschenbruck, was clearly aimed at gaining Cartellieri wider recognition. Die Würghand/Die Hand des Teufels/The Hand of the Devil (1920), a crime drama set in the mountains and directed by Hintner, was critically praised for its style and narrative effectiveness as well as for Cartellieri’s performance as the femme fatale.

  • Lon Chaney (1Er Avril 1883 – 26 Août 1930), Surnommé « L'homme Aux
    Lon Chaney (1er avril 1883 – 26 août 1930), surnommé « l’homme aux mille visages », est un acteur de cinéma américain du temps du muet. Il fut l’un des acteurs les plus polyvalents et les plus impressionnants de l’aube du cinéma. On se souvient de lui surtout pour ses compositions de personnages torturés, souvent grotesques et affectés, ainsi que pour son talent novateur en ce qui concerne le maquillage de cinéma. Lon Chaney naquit Leonidas Frank Chaney à Colorado Springs (Colorado), le fils de Frank H. Chaney et d’Emma Alice Kennedy, son père avait du sang français mais surtout anglais, tandis que sa mère avait des origines irlandaises. Les parents de Chaney étaient sourds tous les deux et, dès l’enfance, Chaney montra quelque talent pour la pantomime. Il commença à monter sur les planches en 1902 et tourna avec des troupes de vaudeville et de théâtre. En 1905, il fit la connaissance de la chanteuse Cleva Creighton et l’épousa alors qu’elle n’avait que seize ans. L’année suivante naquit celui qui restera leur unique enfant, Creighton Chaney, qui fut mieux connu bien plus tard sous le nom de Lon Chaney, Jr.. La famille Chaney poursuivit les tournées, avant de se fixer en Californie en 1910. Malheureusement, leur mariage commença à battre de l’aile et, en avril 1913, Cleva se rendit au Majestic Theatre, situé au centre de Los Angeles, où Lon travaillait à un spectacle, le Kolb and Dill show et, là, elle tenta de mettre fin à ses jours en avalant du bichlorure de mercure.
