Maria Schell
German postcard by WS Druck, Wanne-Eickel, no. F 68. Photo: Joe Niczky.
Pretty, wide-eyed Austrian leading lady Maria Schell (1926-2005) became one of the first film idols to 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.
