from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Isidor Isaak Joseph Fett (born November 24, 1874 in Debica , Galicia , Austria-Hungary ; † December 6, 1933 in Munich ) was an Austrian entrepreneur and film producer as well as a Munich film pioneer.

Life

In 1910, Fett founded the first film studio in Geiselgasteig with Karl Wiesel .

On November 16, 1912, he set up a cinema with around 150 seats in his clothing store on Max-Weber-Platz in Munich. From 1921 to 1926 he was involved in the Vienna film distribution company Hugo Engel on behalf of Münchner Lichtspiele AG .

Fett, who applied for Bavarian citizenship after living in Munich for 20 years, was to be expelled from Bavaria on the day in October 1923 when he tried to get his passport. The reason given was rapid enrichment, i.e. economic damage.

He was general director of the company Münchener Lichtspiel-Kunst, co-founder of the Munich film industry and was often referred to by the right-wing Munich press as "one of the captains of Munich's economic life".

As in Germany, the sound film prevailed, he only two movies ago, most recently as managing director of Grock sound film GmbH .
