Pretty, wide-eyed Austrian leading lady Maria Schell (1926-2005) became one of the first film idols of the European postwar generation. With her ‘smile under tears’ she appeared in dozens of German and Austrian popular films, but she also starred in British, French, Italian, and Hollywood productions.
Margarete Schell was born in Vienna in 1926 as the daughter of the Swiss author Ferdinand Hermann Schell and Austrian actress Margarete Schell Noé. She was the older sister of the actors Immy, Carl, and Maximilian Schell. Her family had to escape from the Nazi regime in 1938, and she received dramatic training in Zurich, Switzerland. To pay for her studies she worked as a secretary. Billed as Gritli Schell, she made her screen debut at 16 in the Swiss-filmed drama Steibruch (Sigfrit Steiner, 1942). It would be six years before she'd appear before the cameras again in Der Engel mit der Posaune (Karl Hartl, 1948). This Austro-German production was simultaneously filmed in an English-language version, The Angel With the Trumpet (Anthony Bushell, 1950), which brought her to the attention of international filmgoers. In the 1950s Maria often played the sweet and innocent Mädchen in numerous Austrian and German films. She starred opposite Dieter Borsche in popular melodramas like Es kommt ein Tag/A Day Will Come (Rudolf Jugert, 1950) and Dr. Holl (Rolf Hansen, 1951). With O.W. Fischer she formed one of the 'Dream Couples of the German cinema' in romantic melodramas like Bis wir uns wiedersehen/Till We Meet Again (Gustav Ucicky, 1952), Der träumende Mund/Dreaming Lips (Josef von Báky, 1953), and Solange Du da bist/As Long As You're Near Me (Rolf Hansen, 1953). She also starred in British productions like The Magic Box (John Boulting, 1951) with Robert Donat, and The Heart of the Matter (George More O'Ferrall, 1953) opposite Trevor Howard.
In 1954, Maria Schell won a Cannes Film Festival award for her dramatic portrayal of a German nurse imprisoned in wartime Yugoslavia in Die letzte Brücke/The Last Bridge (Helmut Käutner, 1954). Two years later, she claimed a Venice Film Festival prize for her role in Gervaise (René Clément, 1956). In this adaptation of Emile Zola’s 'L’Assommoir', she played one of her best roles as a hardworking laundress surrounded by drunks. Other important films were Robert Siodmak’s thriller Die Ratten/The Rats (1955), and Luchino Visconti’s romantic Fyodor Dostoyevski adaptation Le Notti bianche/White Nights (1957), with Schell as the young and innocent girl in love with Jean Marais but loved by Marcello Mastroianni. Hollywood called and Maria Schell was contracted to star as Grushenka opposite Yul Brynner in The Brothers Karamazov (Richard Brooks, 1958), a messy adaptation of another classic novel by Dostoyevsky. This was followed by roles in the Gary Cooper Western The Hanging Tree (Delmer Daves, 1959), the remake of Edna Ferber's Cimarron (Anthony Mann, 1961), and The Mark (Guy Green, 1961), opposite Academy Award nominee Stuart Whitman. Then she returned to Germany for the family drama Das Riesenrad/The Giant Ferris Wheel (Géza von Radványi, 1961), again with O. W. Fischer.
In 1963, dissatisfied with the diminishing value of the characters she was called upon to play, Maria Schell retired. But in 1969 she made a come-back with the witty French comedy Le Diable par la queue/The Devil By The Tail (Philippe de Broca, 1969) opposite Yves Montand. Then followed two horror films by cult director Jesus Franco, Der Heisse Tod/ 99 Women (1969), and Il Trono di fuoco/Throne of the Blood Monster (1970), starring Christopher Lee. Among her, later assignments were Voyage of the Damned (Stuart Rosenberg, 1976), Superman: The Movie (Richard Donner, 1978), Schöner Gigolo, armer Gigolo/Just A Gigolo (David Hemmings, 1978) with David Bowie and Marlene Dietrich. On TV she portrayed the mother of Nazi architect Albert Speer (Rutger Hauer) in Inside the Third Reich (Marvin J. Chomsky, 1992). She also played Mother Maria in the TV sequel to Lilies of the Field called Christmas Lilies of the Field (Ralph Nelson, 1982), and she did guest appearances in popular crime series like Der Kommissar (1969-1975) starring Erik Ode, Kojak (1976) starring Telly Savalas, Derrick (1977-1978), and Tatort (1975-1996). Besides being a film star; Maria Schell appeared in plays in Zurich, Basel, Vienna, Berlin, and Munich, at the Salzburg Festival, and she went on provincial tours from 1963. Among the plays she performed were such classics as Shakespeare's Hamlet, Goethe's Faust, and modern classics such as Pygmalion by George Bernard Shaw. With her brother, Maximilian Schell Maria only appeared in one film, the thriller The Odessa File (Ronald Neame, 1974). In 2002 Maximilian made a documentary about her called Meine Schwester, Maria/My Sister, Maria, in which he documented how her mental health deteriorated along with her finances during her later years. In 2005 Maria Schell died at age 79 of heart failure in her sleep. She was twice married, first to film director Horst Hächler and later to another film director, Veit Relin. She was the mother of actor Oliver Schell and of actress Marie-Therese Relin, who is married to Bavarian playwright Franz Xaver Kroetz and has three children. In 1974 Maria Schell was awarded the Bundesverdienstkreuz (Germany's Cross of Merit) and in 1977 the Filmband in Gold for her impressive contributions to the German cinema.

Austrian actor O.W. Fischer (1915–2004) was one of one of the most popular and highest-paid actors in German-language film in the 1950’s. He played the lead in dozens of light romantic comedies and historical pieces. Unlike countrymen Curd Jürgens, Maria Schell and Romy Schneider, he never made it internationally.
Otto Wilhelm Fischer was born in 1915 in Klosterneuburg near Vienna, Austria-Hungary (now Austria). He was the son of a lawyer. After German and art studies at the University of Vienna he went to a drama school in 1936. He began his career later that year at Max Reinhardt's theatre company in Arthur Schnitzler’s Liebelei. He soon became a popular star in both German and Austrian playsand made the leap to German cinema. His first appearance in Burgtheater (1936, Willi Forst) led to 40 other films such as Anton, der Letzte/ Anthony the Last (1939, E.W. Emo), and Meine Tochter lebt in Wien/My Daughter Lives in Vienna (1940, E.W. Emo). In 1942 he married Czech actress Anna Usell, and the couple stayed together untill her death in 1985. From 1945 to 1952 he was an ensemble member at the famous Vienna Burgtheater.
Known as Europe's answer to Cary Grant, O.W. Fischer specialized in romantic roles starring alongside Maria Holst, Marte Harell, Liselotte Pulver, Winnie Markus, or Ruth Leuwerik. These films include Märchen vom Glück/Kiss Me Casanova (1949, Arthur De Glahs), Erzherzog Johanns grosse Liebe/Archduke Johann's Great Love (1950, Hans Schott-Schöbinger), Heidelberger Romanze/Heidelberg Romance (1951, Paul Verhoeven), Tausend rote Rosen blüh'n/Thousand Red Roses (1952, Alfred Braun), and Ein Herz spielt falsch (1953, Rudolf Jugert). ‘Das Traumpaar’(dream couple) O.W. Fischer and Maria Schell made seven films together, such as Bis wir uns wiedersehn/Till We meet Again (1952, Gustav Ucicky), Der Traumende Mund/Dreaming Lips (1953, Josef von Báky), Solange Du da bist/ As Long as You're Near Me (1953, Harald Braun), and Tagebuch einer Verliebten/The Diary of a Married Woman (1953, Josef von Báky). Most of those productions were financially successful and he became one of the two highest paid actors in Germany. (Curd Jurgens was the other one). He also starred in the title role in the classic German film, Ludwig II (1955, Helmut Käutner).
Fischer occasional assisted on directorial chores during the 1950’s. In 1955, he directed and starred in Hanussen (1955, O.W. Fischer, Georg Marischka), a film detailing the life of Erik Jan Hanussen, the Devil's Prophet, a well-known psychic who collaborated with the Nazis. While the film is considered highly romanticized, it assisted historians and biographers in uncovering previously unknown facts. In 1956 he directed and starred opposite Anouk Aimée in Ich suche Dich/I Am Looking For You (1956, O.W. Fischer), based on the play Jupiter Laughs, by A.J. Cronin. In 1956 Universal Studios signed Fischer to star with June Allyson in a remake of My Man Godfrey (1957, Henry Koster), but his Hollywood break ended before it began: When Fischer reportedly lost his memory during filming, he was replaced by David Niven. Other sources say that differences with director Henry Kosters and Universal Studios eventually cost him his contract.. So Fischer returned to Europe, where he acted in films like Peter Voss, der Millionendieb/Peter Voss, Thief of Millions (1958, Wolfgang Becker) and Menschen im Hotel/Grand Hotel (1959, Gottfried Reinhardt) with Michèle Morgan. In the 1960’s O.W. Fischer and his wife Anna moved to Vernate, Switzerland. He kept appearing on tv and in the theatre. In the late 1970s, he retired from acting to concentrate on linguistics and philosophy, on which he lectured and published a number of books. He died in 2004 in Lugano, Switzerland of kidney failure. He was 88.

The display commemorating the Schell's Hobo Band at the August Schell Brewery museum in New Ulm, Minnesota.
The Schell Creek Mountains located east of Ely, Nevada is one of my favorite places. It’s the longest range of mountains in Nevada and has some interesting geological features like glacial remnants of moraines and cirques. The 33 mile Success Loop road is a beautiful drive over the pass and has some beautiful stands of aspen trees. I’ve spent many nights under the inky black skies in these mountains watching meteors and passing satellites.

Yesterday evening we visited the 125-year-old "Schelling-Salon" in Munich-Schwabing, Schelling-/Barer Strasse, which had seen many illustrious guests. Among them Lenin, Theodor Heuss, Franz Josef Strauß, Bertolt Brecht, Rainer Maria Rilke, August Heisenberg, Wassily Kandinsky, Henrik Ibsen, Franz Marc, Hans Carossa, Joachim Ringelnatz... and also A. Hitler.
Today it´s still a popular and comfy tavern and billiard salon.
in front of a memorial/installation for the women and the men who put up resistance to the National Sozialist Regime in Vorarlberg, Austria, 1938-1945
SCHELLING, GEORG
vor dem Denkmal/Mahnmal für den Widerstand gegen den Nationalsozialismus in Vorarlberg 1938-1945 - 100 Personen
"Die Installation besteht aus einer Reihe von Fallblattanzeigen und zeigt die Namen und Geschichten jener VorarlbergerInnen, die während der nationalsozialistischen Diktatur verfolgt wurden oder Widerstand geleistet haben. Dazu gehören Personen, die entweder ihren regulären Wohnsitz in Vorarlberg hatten oder durch ihre Herkunft an das Land gebunden waren und durch ihr Verhalten den politischen Totalitätsanspruch des NS-Regimes in irgendeiner Form unterhöhlten.
Die Namen der Personen speisen in alphabetischer Reihenfolge die Anzeige, die an alte Abfahrtstafeln an Bahnhöfen erinnert. Nur für einen kurzen Augenblick bleibt die Information leserlich stehen, wird statisch festgehalten, verschwindet dann aber doch und ist vergessen – außer sie verhaftet sich im Vorübergehen in die Erinnerung der Passant- Innen. Die Personen werden somit ins kollektive Gedächtnis gefasst. Neben einer visuellen Ebene, die durch die permanente Bewegung der Module definiert wird, entsteht auch eine Sound-Ebene, die durch Lautsprecher verstärkt wird. Der Text verweist auf die ProtagonistInnen des Widerstandes und veranschaulicht die Vielzahl an Möglichkeiten, Widerstand zu leisten und die Konsequenzen, die damit einher gingen."
