Hans Sohnle
Hans Sohnle (born September 17, 1895 in Beeskow , † March 24, 1976 in Munich ) was a German film architect .
Live and act
Sohnle had completed a year and a half carpentry apprenticeship and attended the arts and crafts school in Berlin before he was drafted at the beginning of the First World War and served as an observation post in a tethered balloon. Shortly before the end of the war, he was released into civilian life and joined films in September 1918. Sohnle was instantly given the post of chief architect from a small production company.
In the first years of his film activity, Sohnle mainly worked on the productions of Carl Froelich . In 1923 he teamed up with his colleague Otto Erdmann , a film novice. The Sohnle & Erdmann team cooperated on all work for the next decade and a half. In addition to an abundance of trivial entertainment productions, at the beginning of 1925 both film architects also designed the buildings for GW Pabst's famous drama from the time of inflation, Die joudlose Gasse .
In 1938, Sohnle and Erdmann separated again. Hans Sohnle settled in Munich and worked mainly for Bavaria Film during the Second World War . Even after the war he designed the buildings for Munich film productions, initially mostly in collaboration with his colleague Fritz Lück. In 1964, Sohnle, who had been the first chairman of the Club of German Film Architects for years, withdrew into private life.
