. The actor Walter Formes was able to launch an extensive film career in the silent movie era of the 10s which especially concentrated to the years 1919 and 1920. His first appearance in front for the camera was for "Die feindlichen Brüder" (13) at the side of Paul Heidemann and Tatjana Irrah. It followed a longer interruption and Walter Formes concentrated to the stage again. Only from 1919 he revived his activity in the film busines again. In the next years followed a whole slew of movies in which Walter Formes took part. To these productions belong "Das Gift im Weibe" (19), "Pogrom" (19), "Retter der Menschheit" (19), "Weib gegen Weib" (19) and "Der Kampf unter dem Meeresspiegel" (19).
