About The Case of Colonel Redl
Based on the short story "Der Fall des Generalstabschefs Redl" by Egon Erwin Kisch. Alfred Redl, a colonel on the Austrian General Staff, leads an extravagant private life. No one suspects that in reality he is passing information to Russian spies. Alternate-language version of "Aféra plukovníka Rédla" (1931).
Directed by Karl Anton, The Case of Colonel Redl leans on a strong ensemble — Theodor Loos, Lil Dagover, Otto Hartmann — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1931.
