	Erich von Stroheim - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Von Stroheim himself claimed to be Count Erich Oswald Hans Carl Maria von Stroheim und Nordenwall, the son of Austrian nobility like the characters he played in his films.
		As a director, Von Stroheim was known to be dictatorial and demanding, often antagonizing his actors; he was one of the first filmmakers to fulfill the stereotype of the Teutonic tyrant, often wearing a monocle and carrying a riding crop while directing.
		Von Stroheim was married four times, the last to actress Denise Vernac, who had been his longtime secretary and companion for years before their marriage in 1957, shortly before his death.

	Eric von Stroheim
		Von Stroheim traveled to Lake Tahoe where he worked for a time as a mountain guide, capturing the eye and eventually the financial support of Emma Bissinger, the wife of a wealthy San Francisco merchant.
		Von Stroheim was impressed by Griffith's attention to detail, his insistence on character development, and his sense of realism--all things that would eventually make von Stroheim legendary in his own quest for a place in filmmaking history.
		Von Stroheim got his first big break in 1915 when he came to the attention of Broadway director John Emerson, whose wife, Anita Loos, was a long-time scenarist for Griffith.

	Stroheim, Erich von - MSN Encarta
		Stroheim emigrated to the United States sometime between 1906 and 1909, and began to create his own myth, claiming to be the son of a German baroness and an Austrian count, the graduate of a prestigious European military academy, and a former cavalry officer with an illustrious war career.
		In 1924 Stroheim signed a contract with the Goldwyn Company (soon to be merged into Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, MGM) and immediately began work on the film that would be both his nemesis and his masterpiece: Greed (1925), an elaborate adaptation of the novel McTeague (1899), by American writer Frank Norris.
		Because Stroheim was still under contract after Greed, he was assigned another picture, one the studio confidently expected to be a simple, commercial project: The Merry Widow (1928), a film version of the operetta by Franz Lehar.

	DEEP FOCUS: Erich von Stroheim (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Von Stroheim once referred to the released version of one of his films as "the skeleton of my dead child." It seems rather odd that despite all the trouble Hollywood gave him and vice versa, he was one of the most respected and best paid of all Hollywood directors throughout the 1920's.
		Von Stroheim was born in Vienna in 1885, the son of a Jewish dry-goods merchant.
		Von Stroheim's first biographer dubbed him "the Hollywood scapegoat." Though he was not the only director at the time to go far over budget or behave wildly on the set, he was the only one to do so while flouting the authority of studio executives and failing to make much money at the box-office.

	Erich von Stroheim
		A master director of the 1920s, Stroheim cultivated an image as a European aristocrat who disdained Hollywood commercialism.
		Sadly, his perfectionism and prodigality led to numerous conflicts with the studios; most of his films were heavily cut and re-edited, and his career foundered by the 1930s.
		Nevertheless, Stroheim is the great novelist of the silent cinema: his films capture a precise realism of setting and characterisation sometimes compared with Zola, and his frank studies of sexual desire, class and power are unerringly modern.
