About The Cabbie's Song
Ferdinand Strödl is the regular coachman for the distinguished Max Jolander, who is constantly on the lookout for romantic adventures. Jolander regularly has Strödl drive him to his rendezvous, during which the coachman witnesses the suffering of many a jilted girl. At such times, Strödl acts as a fatherly friend to Jolander when the consequences of his escapades take on tragic proportions.
Directed by E.W. Emo, The Cabbie's Song leans on a strong ensemble — Paul Hörbiger, Gusti Huber, Franz Schafheitlin — 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 comedy titles of 1936.
