Erich von Stroheim
Erich von Stroheim (September 22, 1885 – May 12, 1957) was an Austrian-American director, actor and producer, most notable as being a film star of the silent era, subsequently noted as an auteur for his directorial work.〔Obituary ''Variety'', May 15, 1957, page 75.〕
==Background==
Stroheim was born in Vienna, Austria, in 1885 as Erich Oswald Stroheim, the son of Benno Stroheim, a middle-class hat-maker, and Johanna Bondy, both of whom were observant Jews.〔Koszarski, Richard. ''Von: The Life and Films of Erich von Stroheim''. New York: Limelight Editions, 2001. p. 4.〕
Stroheim emigrated to America at the end of 1909.〔Koszarski, ''op. cit.'' p. 3.〕 On arrival at Ellis Island, he claimed to be Count Erich Oswald Hans Carl Maria von Stroheim und Nordenwall, the son of Austrian nobility like the characters he played in his films, but both Billy Wilder and Stroheim's agent Paul Kohner claimed that he spoke with a decidedly lower-class Austrian accent. Jean Renoir writes in his memoirs: “Stroheim spoke hardly any German. He had to study his lines like a schoolboy learning a foreign language.”〔Renoir, Jean. ''Ma Vie et mes films'' (Flammarion, 1974) p.150. Renoir writes of the filming of ''La Grande Illusion'' : "An amusing detail was that Stroheim barely spoke German. He had to study his lines like a schoolboy learns a text in a foreign language. In the eyes of the whole world, he remains nevertheless the perfect example of the German soldier. His genius triumphs over the literal copy of reality."〕 Later, while living in Europe, Stroheim claimed in published remarks to have "forgotten" his native tongue. In Renoir's movie ''la Grande Illusion'', Stroheim speaks German with a strong American accent.
However, the fashion photographer Helmut Newton, whose first language was German, used a clip from a Stroheim film on which to base one of his fantasy nude photographs, and he has commented that in the clip Stroheim speaks "a very special kind of Prussian officer lingo - it's very abrupt: it's very, very funny".〔(1:30:30 - 1:32:00 ''Frames From the Edge'' - Helmut Newton ) 〕
