Early life and education

In Oberplanitz, today part of Zwickau, the Fröbe was born. He started as a violinist but then moved to Kabarett and theatre work.

He joined the Nazi Party in 1929 at the age of 16, and in 1937 he was expelled in 1937.

Theaters in Germany were closed down in September 1944, and Fröbe was drafted into the German Army, where he served until the end of the war.

Israel banned Fröbe's films after World War II, until Mario Blumenau, a Jewish survivor, announced just eight weeks later that his life and mother's were possibly saved when Fröbe kept them safe from the Nazis.

Gert Frobe Career

Career

Fröbe gained prominence in Berliner Ballade, one of the first German films made after the Second World War, in 1948 (The Ballad of Berlin, 1948). "Otto Normalverbraucher" is his character's name (lit. Otto Average Consumer (Original Joe) became the German term equivalent to "Average Joe" in the German language.

He was portrayed as the villain in the Swiss-West German film Es geschah am hellichten Tag (It Happened in Broad Daylight, 1958), with Friedrich Dürrenmatt's original screenplay describing him. The James Bond film Goldfinger (1964) creators were captivated by his role as a serial murderer of children, and he was chosen to portray one of the series's most popular villains, Auric Goldfinger. "The odd thing is that since I played Goldfinger in the James Bond film, there are some people who insist on seeing me as a cruel, ruthless villain – a man without laughs."

Is Paris Burning? Several appearances in all-star casts in the 1960s, including the films The Longest Day (1962) and Those Magnificent Men in Their Flying Machines (1965), suggest that Fröbe appeared in Paris. (1966):Triple Cross (1966) and Monte Carlo or Bust (1969) are two different events.

Fröbe appeared in Mercedes Benz W123 advertisements in the 1980s, helping to advertise the coupé and the sedan.

Fröbe, apart from acting, was a prolific lyric poet, particularly in the works of Christian Morgenstern and Joachim Ringelnatz.
