Margarethe Noé von Nordberg

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Margarete Schell-von Noé (born June 2, 1905 in Vienna as Margarete Noé von Nordberg ; † November 29, 1995 in Preitenegg , Carinthia), later also known under the name of Margarethe von Noé , was an Austrian actress .

The stage actress Margarete Schell von Noé met the Swiss writer Hermann Ferdinand Schell in 1923 while she was working at the Munich Kammerspiele and married him. Then she gave up her acting engagement.

After the connection of Austria to the German Reich in 1938, the family moved into the home of her husband to Zurich . Her four children Maria , Carl , Maximilian and "Immy" Immaculata all became actors. Maria had several international successes in her career as an actress, Maximilian was awarded the Oscar for best leading actor in 1962 for the film The Judgment of Nuremberg and was also successful as a director . Immy, the youngest of the siblings, initially began her career under the pseudonym Edith Nordberg in order not to have to bear the burden of the big name. All four children achieved a much higher level of awareness in their job than the mother, who almost completely gave up her job.

She only appeared twice in feature films under the direction of her son Maximilian: in 1973 as "Frau Buchmann" in Der Fußgänger and in 1975 as "Frau Schönler" in the Dürrenmatt film adaptation of The Judge and His Executioner . Instead, she worked as an acting teacher in Switzerland.

In 1992 she published her memoir under the title Mother is the Most Beautiful Role . On November 29, 1995, after a long and serious illness, she died in her house in Oberpreitenegg as a result of a spell of weakness a few days earlier. She was laid to rest on December 4, 1995 in the Preitenegg local cemetery.
