NOTES

Title from title frames

Veidt was a big star in German silent movies after his role as Cesare, the somnambulist in The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari. Like many other artists in Nazi Germany, he fled in 1933. He became a star in British films as well, but when Germany attacked London, he emigrated to the United States, where, for the most part, he wound up playing Nazis—a fate that befell many German refugee actors. Veidt died of a heart attack on a golf course in Hollywood in 1943
