Actor Born: Grimma, Saxony, Germany Death: July 22, 2007 in Frankfurt, Germany Biography:Though world-renowned by the end of his short life, actor Ulrich Mühe earned and sustained a great deal of continental recognition as a movie actor in his native Germany for almost 20 years. Prior to his cinematic activity, Mühe learned construction, enlisted in the armed forces, and studied dramatic performance at the Hans Otto Theaterhochschule in Leipzig. Mühe debuted onscreen in the late '80s and early '90s, with such features as Die Frau und der Fremde (1985) and Schtonk! (1992), then rode to international fame largely on the crest of his collaborations with divisive Austrian helmer Michael Haneke, in whose films Benny's Video (1992) and Funny Games (1997) he starred. Mühe was particularly effective and memorable in the latter as Georg, a poor fellow who is set upon, along with his wife and son, by a pair of psychotic, homicidal "guests" during the family's stay at their lake house.
