- German actor Hans Albers shot himself to fame in 1930 with the movie "Der Greifer." Here Albers plays Sgt. Harry Cross.

He also wins the girl of his dreams, Dolly Mooreland, fetchingly played by Charlotte Susa. Hans Albers was the single biggest male movie star in Germany between 1930 and 1945 and one of the most popular German actors of the twentieth century. Albers starred in a 1958 remake of the film once again playing the role of the retiring police superintendent.
