About The Old Boss
A horse trader from Berlin, once a farmer in Southwest Africa, manages to drive his children out of the house and anger his wife. After serious complications with his heart, which he tried to hide at first, he realizes how much he needs the love and support of his family. The oldest son returns from Argentina and proves his abilities.
Directed by Peter Paul Brauer, The Old Boss leans on a strong ensemble — Otto Wernicke, Werner Fuetterer, Max Gülstorff — 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 1942.
