The actor Hans Moser was born as Johann Julier
in Vienna. He is probably the greatest unique specimen of the German-speaking
film history. Although his pronunciation made the hair stand on end of
each drama teacher he became especially because of his unique mumble a
character among the actors. But only a few are conscious of that Hans Moser
was already activ in the silent movie
era.
When he finished his training at a theater school, Johan Julier took
language teaching with Josef Moser whose name he used as his stage name
from now on.
In 1897 Hans Moser got his first theater engagement and played smaller
parts on different stages in the next years. Because of his height he often
impersonated children too.
Hans Moser became established gradually as a character comedian after
World War I and he could play at great stages. In 1925 he was engaged to
the "Theater in der Josefstadt" by Max Reinhardt.
In the 30's he didn't play as much for the theater, from 1939 he stand
aside of the theater for his film career's benefit.
In his early silent movies he played only small part such as in "Kleider
machen Leute" (22), "Die Stadt ohne Juden" (24), "Ssanin" (24) and "Der
Feldherrnhügel" (26). Also his later silent movies "Die Familie ohne
Moral" (27) and "Spitzenhöschen und Schusterpech" (28) weren't crowned
with success.
The beginning of his sound film era started resinous too. Normally he
played minor parts beside established Berliner comedians. Only in 1933
the tide has turned to his favour when Willi Forst realized first so-called
"Vienna movies". In movies like "Leise flehen meine Lieder" (33) and "Maskerade"
(34) they accepted Moser's mumble and nervous movements, the audience get
used to seeing it so to speak and people came even to a love with this
peculiarity.
The often angrily acting Hans Moser achieved further successes with
"Vorstadtvarieté" (34), "Der Himmel auf Erden" (35), "Endstation"
(35), "Familie Schimek" (35), Das Gässchen zum Paradies" (36), "Burgtheater"
(36), "Der Mann, von dem man spricht" (37), "13 Stühle" (38), "Das
Ekel" (39), "Anton der Letzte" (39), "Sieben Jahre Pech" (40), "Wiener
Blut" (42) and "Einmal der liebe Herrgott sein" (42). He was the ideal
contrast to stars like Theo Lingen, Heinz Rühmann, Oskar Sima and
above all Annie Rosar, with who he shot altogether seventeen movies between
1933 and 1957.
From 1933 Hans Moser depended on a special permission in order to work
because of his marriage with the Jewess Blacna Hirschler - his wife left
Germany in 1939.
Hans Moser continued his career in Austria after the War, where he
played at the theater for the time being. Also the film business was still
interested in Hans Moser and he got roles in "Der Herr Kanzleirat (48),
"Hallo, Dienstmann" (51) and "Der Onkel aus Amerika" (52).
But thereafter the star of Hans Moser began to sink slowly. The quality
of his next movies couldn't continue the high standard of his movies in
the 30's. He acted in remakes of earlier successes like "Die Deutschmeister"
(55), "Der Kongress tanzt" (55), "Die Drei von der Tankstelle" (55), "Opernball"
(56) and "Die unentschuldigte Stunde" (57).
Hans Moser accepted unscrupulous nearly each role and he made his jokes
together with the younger comedian generation like Georg Thomalla, Trude
Herr and Gunther Philipp which let his movie went down into shallowness.
Hans Moser could very rarely gleam in his late movies. The movie "Ober,
zahlen!" (57) and above all "Herrn Josefs letzte Liebe" (59) presented
him again in his earlier top form.
