Max Rüdlinger (born April 3, 1949 in Flums ) is a Swiss actor and author .

life and career

The son of a senior bank employee and a housewife grew up as an only child in sheltered circumstances. In his early twenties, he rebelled against the bourgeois lifestyle, dropped out of business school and devoted himself to acting. He describes himself as a "free actor", which he defines as: "I am mostly free."

Since 1982 he has had an often turbulent collaboration with director Clemens Klopfenstein . Many of his films come from this collaboration, some of which have also been successful beyond Swiss borders. In Gemmi (1994) and Das Schweigen der Männer (1997), Rüdlinger played side by side with the dialect rock singer Polo Hofer .

Ironically, in his older years he is particularly convincing in civil roles, such as police chief ( Strähl ) or high-ranking officer ( watch out, get set, Charlie! ). In 2010 Rüdlinger toured Switzerland with the solo piece in the semi-finals , in which he played the Swiss footballer Geni Meier .

For his role in Die Vogelpredigt or Das Schrei der Mönche , he was nominated for “Best Actor” at the 2006 Swiss Film Awards.

In 2007 he published his first book, the autobiography The Right to Memoirs , with Zytglogge Verlag . In 2012 his second book Verreist was published by Bilgerverlag .
