Otto Gebühr
Otto Gebühr (29 May 1877 – 14 March 1954) was a German theatre and film actor, who appeared in 102 films released between 1917 and 1954. He is noted for his performance as the Prussian king Frederick the Great in numerous films. ==Life== Born in Kettwig (today part of Essen) in the Rhine Province the son of a merchant, Gebühr attended the ''gymnasium'' secondary school in Cologne and completed a commercial training. Alongside he took drama lessons and began his acting career at the Görlitz city theatre. In 1898 he joined the ensemble of the Königliches Hoftheater Dresden and from 1908 performed at the Lessing Theater in Berlin. As a World War I volunteer he achieved the rank of a Lieutenant in the German Army. After the war he worked with director Max Reinhardt at the Deutsches Theater in Berlin. At the same time he obtained his first film performances with the help of his colleague Paul Wegener. He found the role of his lifetime in 1919, acting as King Frederick II in the historical drama ''Die Tänzerin Barberina'' directed by Carl Boese, modeled on the life of ballerina Barbara Campanini (1721–1799). The first part of the UFA ''Fridericus Rex'' tetralogy starring Otto Gebühr playing the title role was released in 1922, followed by several further so-called "Fridericus-Rex-movies". The series was heavily criticized by contemporaries for supporting a widespread negative stance towards the Weimar Republic democracy and the yearning for a leader in waiting. Gebühr continued his performances in the Nazi period from 1933 onwards, last performing in ''The Great King'' ((ドイツ語:Der Große König)), a 1942 German wartime propaganda film directed by Veit Harlan〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=New York Times: The Great King )〕 referring to the historic Miracle of the House of Brandenburg, which received the rare "Film of the Nation" distinction.〔Erwin Leiser (1974) ''Nazi Cinema''; tr.

His final film, ''Die Blonde Frau des Maharadscha'', was released eight years after his death.
