NOTE


She is a German actress, and appeared in literary based movies such as "Gervaise"(1956), "White Nights"(1957), "End of Desire"(1958), and "The Brothers Karamazov"(1958) in 1950s. Though I don't know whether it is because she is a German, she sometimes speaks with very unusual accent. But I feel it's rather attractive than ponderous. Besides, her beautiful smile is quite impressive and unforgettable. Though, in 1960s, her appearence in English spoken movies became rare, in 1970s, she again started to appear in several English movies. Needless to say, also her brother Maximilian schell is a famous international actor.
