From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hartmut Reck (17 November 1932 – 30 January 2001) was a German television and film actor. He also appeared in the American-produced epic film, The Longest Day. He also acted in the German film dubbing industry, dubbing into German the voices of Anthony Hopkins, John Hurt, Robert Duvall, Michael Caine, Donald Sutherland, Peter Graves, Patrick Stewart, Franco Nero, Terence Hill and others.

Life and career

[edit]

Reck was born in Berlin. He made his debut working in theater with the Berliner Ensemble, working under Bertolt Brecht. In 1956, he began working in film and with DEFA in the former German Democratic Republic. He moved to West Germany in 1959, where he played the title role in a television film, Raskolhikoff alongside Paul Verhoeven, Uwe Friedrichsen and Ernst Fritz Fürbringer. The film was based on the novel Crime and Punishment by Fyodor Dostoyevsky.

In 1962, he played in Jeder stirbt für sich allein, Falk Harnack's 1962 television film adaptation of the novel Every Man Dies Alone by Hans Fallada, appearing with Edith Schultze-Westrum, Alfred Schieske and Wolfgang Kieling.

Reck's best known feature film was The Longest Day (1962), an American war film about "D-Day", produced by Darryl F. Zanuck. The film's German and French cast members spoke their lines in their own languages, and in separately filmed sequences, spoke their parts in English. In 1965, he played alongside Karin Dor and Harald Leipnitz in a crime film by Edgar Wallace, The Sinister Monk. In 1968, he played Georges Picquart in a television film version of the Dreyfus Affair on German broadcaster ZDF.[1]

Reck appeared in several guest roles on long-running German television series, Der Kommissar and Tatort. In 1988, he became well known to the German public as "Kommissar Ecki Schöller" in the television series Die Männer vom K3.

In addition to his film and television roles, Reck worked as a voice actor in the German film dubbing industry, dubbing the voices of numerous English-speaking actors into German, including Anthony Hopkins, John Hurt, Robert Duvall, Michael Caine, Donald Sutherland, Peter Graves, Patrick Stewart, Franco Nero, Terence Hill and others.[2]
