Karl Etlinger (actor)
Karl Franz Etlinger (born October 10, 1879 in Vienna , Austria-Hungary ; † May 8, 1946 in Berlin - Wilmersdorf ) was an Austro-German actor and theater director who was mainly seen in batch roles.
Life
Karl Etlinger was the only child of Heinrich Anton Etlinger and his wife Maria Etlinger geb. Zach. His father ran a print business, but died when Karl was 6 years old around 1885. Karl was a specialist in the Austrian folk plays by Johann Nestroy and Ferdinand Raimund received acting lessons from Joseph Lewinsky in Vienna. He made his debut in Wesel in 1898 . He then played in Lahr , Frankfurt am Main , Stuttgart and from 1911 to 1920 in Vienna at the Residenztheater and the Volksbühne . In 1917 Etlinger worked on a new translation of the rarely performed Shakespeare play Pericles on Tire , which appeared in print in 1918.
In the 1920s he enjoyed success as an actor at the Berlin theaters, at the Staatstheater under Leopold Jessner , in the Deutsches Schauspielertheater collective, which he headed alongside Karl Heinz Martin , Alexander Granach and Heinrich George , at Max Reinhardt's theaters and the Saltenburg theaters .
Etllinger began making silent films in the early 1910s. One of his earliest films is The Conversion of Dr. Wundt (1914). He played supporting roles in numerous well-known films until 1945. He had bigger roles as a shoemaker Knieriem in the film adaptation of Nestroy's Der böse Geist Lumpacivagabundus (1922), as a bookbinder Starke in Phantom (1922) and as general director Rosenow in Die joudlose Gasse (1925).
At the beginning of the sound film era 1930/31 he worked in Hollywood in films by Jacques Feyder and Wilhelm Dieterle . In German talkies he could be seen in the following films, among others: Scandal about Eva (1930), The Mask Falls (1930), Bombs on Monte Carlo (1931), The Countess of Monte Christo (1932), The Witcher (1932), Woman at the wheel (1939), Quax, der Bruchpilot (1941) and Die Feuerzangenbowle (1944).
Etlinger was also in the last years of his life on various Berlin stages, in particular the Volksbühne , the theater in the Admiralspalast , the Komische Oper , the Hebbel-Theater and the State Theater . He was married three times. First with Maria Etlinger (née Musehold), with whom he had a daughter. His second wife was Margarethe Etlinger (née Horn, called Gretl), whose father was a converted Jew. Karl Etlinger was allowed to continue working without restriction with a special permit, which was rarely granted. The marriage also ended in divorce. Margarethe Etlinger was deported by the Gestapo to the police prison in Salzburg in November 1941 and from there to the Ravensbrück women's concentration camp , where she was murdered on March 14, 1942.
Karl Etlinger died in May 1946 at the age of 66 in Berlin-Wilmersdorf. His third wife Annemarie Auerbach, whom he had married relatively recently, shortly afterwards committed suicide out of grief. His grave in the state-owned cemetery Heerstraße in Berlin-Westend has since been closed.
