Gitta Alpar and Gustav Fröhlich in Gitta entdeckt ihr Herz (1932)

German postcard by Ross Verlag, no. 6810/1, 1931-1932. Photo: Angelo Photos. Gitta Alpar and Gustav Fröhlich in Gitta entdeckt ihr Herz/Gitta Discovers Her Heart (Carl Froelich, 1932).

 

Hungarian-born Gitta Alpár (1903-1991) was a Jewish actress, opera and operetta singer, and dancer, whose successful career in Germany was broken by the Nazis.

 

Smart German actor Gustav Fröhlich (1902-1987) played Freder Fredersen in the classic Metropolis (1927) and became a popular star in light comedies. After the war, he tried to escape from the standard role of a charming gentleman with the part of a doomed painter in Die Sünderin (1951), but the effort went down into a scandal.
