Captain Blood IFK #1347

11 Sep

This one is very rare, it's from the pre-war years when some films were shown in English in Austria.

New Film Programme Category

Here begins an overview of different film programmes, mostly from Germany, Austria and France. The following abbreviations are used:

IFK – Illustrierter Film-Kurier.

IFB – Illustrierte Film-Bühne

(D)NFP – (Das) Neue FilmProgramm

to be continued. It'd be interesting to know if such things existed in Britain and the USA?

Otto Reichow

08 Sep

I just finished watching “Portrait of a Swashbuckler” and came across a gentleman identified as Otto Reichow, one of Errol's pallbearers. I had never heard of him and wondered how close a connection he might have to Errol when he was among his friends who were pallbearers, too. So I looked aroung a bit and found that he is (or was, as he died in 2000, aged 95!) of German origin and that he played in several films with Errol. He has got quite an impressive list of movie appearances, but most uncredited. And he played with Errol in 4 films: Desperate Journey, Silver River, Mara Maru, and Istanbul! He was crying when he talked about Errol, so there must have been more than a casual acquaintance? Is anything known about him?

Here is a photo:

To Rachel: This is a bit sarcastic, but remember when you said you had only seen one picture with Errol and Johnny? Well, here's another one, read the comments posted on the website…
