Charlotte Böcklin

Charlotte Böcklin (before 1900 - after 1925) was a German actress in the silent film era .

Life

She worked under directors such as Alexander von Antalffy , Lorenz Bätz , Carl Boese , Arthur Günsburg , Gerhard Lamprecht , Max Obal and Otto Rippert .

In Otto Rippert's two-part social drama “The Path That Leads to Damnation” from 1918/19, in which the adventurous story of two young women is told, who fall into the hands of girl traffickers, are kidnapped and end up in prostitution, she stood among others. a. with Käthe Haack and Grete Weixler in front of the camera, with Conrad Veidt in 1919 in “Die Okarina”, based on the novel “Treu wie Gold” (1912) by the Danish author Karin Michaëlis . In 1919 she appeared next to Alexander Granach in “Das goldene Buch” . In “The Black Marion” she appeared alongside Reinhold Schünzel . Ernst Dernburg and Ferdinand von Alten were her partners in “Sumpfhanne” .

The two-act series about the film character “Krause” played by the actor Karl Neisser was of a more cheerful nature. Charlotte Böcklin appeared in two episodes from it, “Ganz ohne Krause” and “Papa Krause”, both in 1918. The screenplay writer was Leonhard Haskel , and the director was Lorenz Bätz. The "AG Filmfabrikation Arthur Günsburg Berlin" produced the series, which is almost forgotten today.

Karl Figdor wrote the manuscript for a number of films in which she participated ; Hans Hyan and Marco Brociner wrote the scripts for two films each . Her role character was either that of the 'disreputable' woman or the battered sufferer who was not spared from fate. Her roles ranged from the demi-world lady in crime films such as “Die Gemelsteinsammlung ” with Viggo Larsen as a detective to social outlaw characters such as “The Black Marion” and the “Sumpfhanne” to Aenne Wolter, who falls victim to the “hyenas of lust” .

She was the "asphalt rose" Hilde Brunn in the metropolitan criminal milieu (1922) and the improper lover Aline Puvogel in Gerhard Lamprecht's filming of "Buddenbrooks" (1923) as well as the "woman without a conscience" Felicitas Alberti, in her (probably) last film by 1925.
