L'archer vert (1961)

Der grüne Bogenschütze

Le château d'Abel Bellamy, riche américain, est soit-disant hanté par le fantôme de l'archer vert, sorte de Robin des Bois du 14ème siècle qui terrorisait les propriétaires de la demeure. Se souciant peu de cette légende, Valérie et son père adoptif emménagent dans la demeure voisine, au grand dam de Bellamy. Mais qui est l'archer vert et que veut-il ?

Anecdotes

The Green Archer is a 1961 West German black and white crime film directed by Jürgen Roland and starring Gert Fröbe, Klausjürgen Wussow, Karin Dor and Eddi Arent. It is based on the 1923 novel The Green Archer by Edgar Wallace.

Production

Earlier film versions of Wallace's story were produced in the US as serials in 1925 and 1940. The script for the German version was written by Wolfgang Schnitzler (aka Marcel Valmy) with contributions by Wolfgang Menge. This was the first Rialto film produced by Horst Wendlandt who was previously employed by Artur Brauner's CCC Film.

This was Jürgen Roland's second (after The Crimson Circle ) and last film based on a Wallace novel. It was the fourth Wallace film made by Rialto.

Cinematography took place from October 1960 to January 1961. Interiors were filmed at Real Film's Wandsbek Studios in Hamburg, four later films from the series were also shot there. Exteriors were filmed at Hamburg and at Schloss Ahrensburg. The film's sets were designed by the art directors Mathias Matthies and Ellen Schmidt, who frequently collaborated.
