The
actress Liane Haid was the first Austrian movie star in film history. She
already appeared in operas and operettas when she was a child. She attracted
great attention at the Kaiserhof that she was engaged as a dancing partner
of archduke Max.
Her film career began in 1915 with the movie "Mit Herz und Hand fürs
Vaterland" (15), it followed "Der Landstreicher" (16), "Der Verschwender"
(17), "Der Doppelselbstmord" (18) and "Die Ahnfrau" (19).
Liane Haid's first husband let build a whole film studio in Vienna
especially for her and founded a production company.
In the 20's she rose to one of the most popular actresses. She actec
togethter with all great actors of this time and made film history with
the movies "Der Roman eines Dienstmädchens" (21), "Lady Hamilton"
(21), "Lucrezia Borgia" (22), "Die Brüder Schellenberg" (26) and "Die
Czardasfürstin" (27).
Also the transition to the sound film, wich required a completely different
acting way, she mastered very well. She was employed by the Ufa as one
of the first actresses which appeared in sound movies. Certainly her singing
lessons had a favourable effect for this new medium and she was also put
into action for roles which had to sing too. Among others she sang the
hit "Adieu, mein kleiner Gardeoffizier". To her well-known movies of the
30's belong "Das Lied ist aus" (30), "Der unsterbliche Lump" (30), "Grock"

(33), "Roman einer Nacht" (33) and "Ungeküsst soll man nicht schlafen
gehen" (36).
Liane Haid wasn't able to work for the film during the wartime, still
she refused offers from the USA and intensified her work for the theater.
In 1942 she emigrated to Switzerland and got married with the Swiss
doctor Carl Spycher with who she travelled a lot to the tropics.
Liane Haid's name appeared a last time in the cast list for the movie
"Die fünf Karnickel/Im Krug zum Grünen Kranze" (53).
