Carl Adolf Lange (born October 30, 1909 in Flensburg ; † June 23, 1999 in Ostfildern ) was a German actor and radio play speaker . He appeared under the name Carl Lange or Karl Lange .
Life
Lange was initially a backdrop and decoration painter and made his first appearance in Flensburg in 1925. He performed on various stages, including Tilsit . In 1938 he became senior director at the Grenzlandtheater in Zittau . After army and a prisoner of war , he worked from 1946 to 1958 at Stuttgart theaters such as the State Theater .
But in the mid-1950s, Lange also appeared in feature films. Because of his short hair and his voice, Lange was considered an ideal performer for officers, nobles and other people of respect. Some of his characters were sincere like the governor in Winnetou Part 3 or Colonel Munroe in The Last of the Mohicans , others were shady characters like the Reverend Hopkins in The Witcher , the doctor Dr. Mangrove in The Blue Hand or Anatol the servant in The Snake Pit and the Pendulum . In the Ludwig Ganghofer adaptation of Schloss Hubertus , he played the inaccessible and hunting-obsessed Count Egge.
Lange also often appeared in television plays with a historical background as well as in literary films and crime series in which he acted in the usual role.
