While waiting for his scenes to be shot, Basil Rathbone used his 35mm Leica camera to make this snapshot of Clark Gable, who was filming San Francisco on an adjoining soundstage.
I'm an American living in Regensburg, Bavaria. Born in Munich I spent my first 10 years in Kirkwood, Mo. 1971 we moved to where I am now. Finished German school in 1981, then spent 29 semesters studying German literature, philosophy and political science. 1982 I joined the management of the local film club's cinema Filmgalerie, and from 1991-2001 I ran my own arthouse cinema STALI (Stadtamhofer Lichtspiele). In between I also co-owned a cinema bookstore for a few years. In the 80s I co-founded the local industrial band and performance art group Lyssa humana that officially still exists, but currently doesn't perform. I was also member of the shortlived noise rock band Hammersmith. Since 2001 I work for the customer service of a large American online store.
