Behind the Scenes: Actors (Heinz Rühmann and Helmut Weiss) during Filming in Munich after the War

Description

Black-and-white photograph showing an intense scene during film work indoors. Helmut Weiss (Director) and Heinz Rühmann (Actor) are interacting closely, while a historical movie camera or large-format camera is positioned in the foreground on the right. The photo documents the resumption of film production in Bavaria in the post-war period, possibly in a still provisional film studio. Taken during the filming of "The Secret of the Red Cat" (1947–1949) in Munich. The film was shot shortly after the war (Day 253 of shooting documented) and only released in 1949. The film reels were meticulously processed by hand. Photographer: Munich Professional Photographer (Original negatives owned by the seller)
