Erich Palme
Erich Palme (born September 19, 1894 in Dresden , † June 5, 1971 in Berlin ) was a German film production manager , film editor and documentary director .
Life
Palme had received three years of training as a businessman. He also took acting lessons from Eugen Huff in his hometown of Dresden. Further training as a cameraman followed. Drafted during World War I , Palme was wounded in January 1917. After his recovery, he went to the theater.
At the beginning of 1919 he switched to film as a dramaturge and actor. In 1921 Erich Palme founded his own production company with Mercedes-Film in Dresden, which went bankrupt in 1923. He then moved to Berlin and worked at the Nollendorf Theater and the Schloßparktheater . In 1926, Palme changed his profession again and began working as a journalist as a film editor for the specialist journal ' Lichtbühne '.
In 1928 he founded the animation studio Patrick-Film, two years later he tried his hand at editing. A little later, in this role, he was also involved in the newsreels for the Munich company Emelka . Since his debut as the producer of the Italian dubbed version (1934) of the Nazi propaganda strip " Hans Westmar ", he has worked in various functions in the feature film as an editor, assistant director (including 1935 for " Die blessed Excellence ", 1936 for " Diener let bitten " and " Moral "And 1937 with" Spiel auf der Tenne "and" Der Biberpelz ") and documentary film director. In the latter function, Palme produced two rather unimaginatively designed travel and expedition reports from East Asia in 1936, which were shown again in cinemas after the war (1953 and 1955, respectively).
From 1935 he concentrated on the production management. In the more complex productions of the production company Euphono such as the Hans Albers success “ Sergeant Berry ” from 1938 and “ Rheinische Brautfahrt ” the following year, Palme had to be content with the work of a simple employee. Most recently, from autumn 1944 to July 1945, Erich Palme was in the service of Bavaria as production manager .
After the war, the man from Dresden tried again as a documentary film director, also with a rather weak response.
