약력
Friedrich Hans Ulrich Mühe (20 June 1953 – 22 July 2007) was a German film, television and theatre actor. He played the role of Hauptmann (Captain) Gerd Wiesler in the Oscar-winning film Das Leben der Anderen (The Lives of Others, 2006), for which he received the award for Best Performance by an Actor in a Leading Role, Gold, at Germany's most prestigious film awards, the Deutscher Filmpreis (German Film Awards); and the Best Actor Award at the 2006 European Film Awards.
Curiously, events in Mühe's life were mirrored by the plot of the film, as he allegedly discovered in a Stasi file compiled on him that he had been under surveillance by his second wife, Jenny Gröllmann. Gröllmann denied this, and after an acrimonious and highly-publicized court case she succeeded in obtaining an injunction to prevent Mühe from repeating the allegation in a book.
After leaving school, Mühe was employed as a construction worker and a border guard at the Berlin Wall. He then turned to acting, and from the late 1970s into the 1980s appeared in numerous plays, becoming a star of the Deutsches Theater in East Berlin. He was active in politics and denounced Communist rule in East Germany in a memorable address at the Alexanderplatz demonstration on 4 November 1989 shortly before the fall of the Berlin Wall. After German reunification he continued to appear in a large number of films, television programmes and theatre productions. In Germany he was particularly known for playing the lead role of Dr. Robert Kolmaar in the long-running forensic crime series Der letzte Zeuge (The Last Witness, 1998–2007).

오스트리아의 여름은 아름답지만 약간 서늘하다. 티롤계곡의 저녁은 예고 없이 어두워지곤 한다. 호숫가 별장으로 향하는 게오르그 가족의 자동차를 내려다보는 높은 카메라는 이들의 왜소함을 강조하는 듯하다. 그들은 헨델, 모짜르트를 좋아하고, 함께 휴가를 즐길 이웃이 기다리고 있다. 그러나 그들을 맞이한 이웃의 태도는 어딘가 냉랭한 기운이 감돈다. 이상한 느낌이지만 크게 신경 쓸 일은 아니다. 게오르그의 부인 안나는 짐을 대충 정리하고 저녁을 준비한다. 이때 찾아든 낯선 청년 피터, 이웃의 에바가 보냈다며 달걀 4개를 빌려 달라고 한다. 이웃 에바의 사촌이라고 나타난 피터, 청년의 행동이 어딘가 이상하다. 전화기를 물에 빠뜨리지 않나, 달걀을 깨먹질 않나, 달걀을 더 내놓으라고 태연자약하게 요구하질 않나, 낯선 청년 폴의 등장은 더욱 안나를 불쾌하게 하고 신경이 날카로워진 안나는 그들에게 나가라는 요구를 하게 된다. 악의라고는 찾아볼 수 없던 청년들의 태도가 돌변하고 안나와 게오르그는 어쩔 줄 몰라한다. 골프채로 가볍게 게오르그의 다리를 부러뜨리고 관객을 향한 눈짓과 함께 재밌는 게임이 시작된다. 도저히 상상할 수 없는 게임이 펼쳐진다. 폴과 피터는 안나가족을 내일 오전 9시까지 모두 죽인다는 전제 아래 게임을 시작하며 관객에게도 참여할 것을 요구한다. 객석을 향한 폴의 눈길이 한없이 불편하지만, 조종권은 이미 그들에게 있다. 그리고 차례차례 죽어가는 살인 파티. 왜 이들은 반항하지 않는가라는 의문은 쓸데없는 일, 리모트 콘트롤을 이용한 반전은 왜 이들이 무기력하게 죽어갈 수 밖에 없는지 설명한다.

Dr. Wieland
Schtonk! is a farce of the actual events of 1983, when Germany's Stern magazine published, with great fanfare, 60 volumes of the alleged diaries of Adolf Hitler – which two weeks later turned out to be entirely fake. Fritz Knobel (based on real-life forger Konrad Kujau) supports himself by faking and selling Nazi memorabilia. When Knobel writes and sells a volume of Hitler's (nonexistent) diaries, he thinks it's just another job. When sleazy journalist Hermann Willié learns of the diaries, however, he quickly realizes their potential value... and Knobel is quickly in over his head. As the pressure builds and Knobel is forced to deliver more and more volumes of the fake diaries, he finds himself acting increasingly like the man whose life he is rewriting. The film is a romping and hilarious satire, poking fun not only at the events and characters involved in the hoax (who are only thinly disguised in the film), but at the discomfort Germany has with its difficult past.
