Early life edit

Klingler acquired his first theatre experience in minor acting roles. He immigrated to the United States, where he played at a German-American theater in Milwaukee in 1925. Klingler starred in films, such as Howard Hughes' Hell's Angels and Wilhelm Dieterle's The Dance Goes On (a German-language version of Those Who Dance).[2]

Career edit

Klingler met Luis Trenker to film Mountains on Fire. Klingler was assistant director at SOS Eisberg (1933) and The Prodigal Son (1934 film). He directed The Last Four on Santa Cruz (1936). Klingler regressed to Germany. His new titles included Condottieri (1937 film), Love Letters from Engadin (1938), Die letzte Runde (1940), and Wetterleuchten um Barbara (1941). Klingler replaced the allegedly executed director, Herbert Selpin, for Titanic. After the epic film was banned, Klingler's Die Degenhardts (1944) was banned the following year. Klingler was unable to complete The Man in the Saddle[citation needed] due to the Battle of Berlin. His postwar credits include Raid (1947) and Nora's Ark (1948). He returned to Hollywood only to be rejected.

Klingler directed Aus dem Tagebuch eines Frauenarztes (1959) and Spy for Germany (1956).

Klingler released the film, Lebensborn (film) [de] (1961), about the Nazi Eugenics system. He filmed a version of Bryan Edgar Wallace's Death Packs a Suitcase under the title, Das Geheimnis der schwarzen Koffer [de]. His last film was Straßenbekanntschaften auf St. Pauli (1968).
