1943

After the death of her son in 1943 his fourth wife Mary Johnson went slowly mad, and her situation changed for the worse. Rudolf Klein-Rogge's care was applied to her on the verge of his death. It seems that Mary Johnson - at this time she already lived again in Sweden for many years - appeared bewildered in her former domicile in Wetzelsdorf where she summoned for her husband and her son.

1942

1930

A powerful personality possessed of an almost hypnotic stare and a strong, resonant voice, Klein-Rogge continued on through the 1930's in supporting roles.

1928

From 1928 Klein-Rogge was also engaged in France where he appeared in one of the first great French sound movies - "Le Requin" (1929),directed by Henri Chomette.

1920

Caligari Full Sound (1920), but he really established his reputation in a series of classic expressionist films written by his then-wife Thea von Harbou and directed by Fritz Lang. Of these, the most memorable were his forceful Moriarty-inspired portrayals of the titular character in Dr.

1919

After playing in theatres in towns and cities along the Rhine and northern Germany for nearly ten years, he started making films in 1919. His villainous roots first came to the fore in The Cabinet of Dr.

He earned around 12'000 Deutsch Mark a year as a star of the Nuremberg Stadttheater, his wife earned as many as 100'000 Deutsch Mark but it could had been still more if she would had lived in Berlin. Thus, the married couple went to Berlin. Klein-Rogge was employed by the Lessing-Theater and Thea von Harbou could press ahead with her successful career. Berlin turned out to be a harder place in comparison with Nuremberg and his career stagnated. Finally his marriage broke but they remained friends.

1909

During the heyday of German silent cinema, Rudolf Klein-Rogge was the prototype for the master criminal, the irredeemable arch villain or mad scientist.

1888
