Harry Baer
Harry Baer (born September 27, 1947 in Biberach an der Riß as Harry Zöttl ) is a German actor , producer and author .
Life
Starting with the antiteater , Baer's film career began in 1969 at the side of Rainer Werner Fassbinder , in whose films he worked in front of and behind the camera and with whom he remained closely connected until his death. His first film was Fassbinder's drama Katzelmacher . It was also Fassbinders who changed the last name Zöttl, as Baer was actually called, in the credits, which made Baer visibly upset. When Fassbinder offered him a leading role in his next film, the gangster drama Gods of the Plague , the differences between the two were out of the world.
Baer was the main and supporting actor in numerous cinema and television films (including in Tatort ) and worked with well-known directors such as Doris Dörrie , Hans Jürgen Syberberg , Mika Kaurismäki and Bernhard Sinkel .
Harry Baer is a member of the German Film Academy and deputy editor-in-chief of the regie.de internet portal.
