Individual evidence

  1. ↑ Date and place of birth according to Kay Less : The film's great personal dictionary . All others, including IMDb and Filmportal.de, state 1908 as the year of birth and “Lopron / Hungary” as the place of birth, which is probably due to a confusion with “ Sopron ” (Ödenburg).
