About The Glass Tower
Katja Fleming has given up her job as an actress and married the business man Robert Fleming. But the cold that surrounds her in her modern, luxurious high-rise makes her lonely. Then she meets the author John Lawrence, who wants to convince her to perform in his new play.
Directed by Harald Braun, The Glass Tower leans on a strong ensemble — Lilli Palmer, O.E. Hasse, Peter van Eyck — 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 1957.
