The actor Alexander Golling began his theater career in Munich from
1924 and gave guest performances in Heidelberg, Leipzig and Berlin in the
following years.
From 1935 he became soon established as a popular support actor (often
as a villain) in movies like "Einer zuviel an Bord" (35), "Der Kaiser von
Kalifornien" (36), "Der Dschungel ruft" (36), "Der Tiger von Eschnapur"
(38), "Das indische Grabmal" (38) and "Sergeant Berry" (38).
During the wartime he only appeared seldom in front of the camera, so
in "Kameraden" (41), "Ritt zwischen den Fronten" (41) and "Geheimakte W.B.
1" (42).
His main activity was clearly aimed at the theater in those years,
he also was director of the Bavarian Staatsschauspiel from 1938 to 1945.
As a sympathizer of the National Socialists he became the nickname
"the brown theater prince of Munich", for which he was blamed after the
war.
His career got only slowly started after the war, his past during the
wartime was a great handicap.
Finally he was able to gain a foothold again in the 50's and impersonated
numerous support roles in popular productions.
To his well-known movies of the 50's and 60's belong "Vom Teufel gejagt"
(50), "Gestatten, mein Name ist Cox" (55), "Königin Luise" (57) "Mein
Schulfreund" (60), "Die Gentlemen bitten zur Kasse" (66), "Caligula" (66)
and "Sturm im Wasserglas" (69).
His career ended slowly in the 70's. To his last cinematical works belong
"Alle Menschen werden Brüder" (73), "The Odessa File - Die Akte Odessa"
(74), "Karl May" (74) and "Das Wunder des heiligen Florian" (79).
