Trivia

  • The first child star of German sound films, celebrated for his role in Emil and the Detectives (1931). He remained essentially typecast for the remainder of his career, unable to shake his image as the perpetual freckle-faced schoolboy. His later roles often saw him as chauffeurs, newspaper sellers, hairdressers or elevator operators.
  • When the actor Hans Richter impersonated the role of the "Fliegender Hirsch" in the movie "Emil und die Detektive" (1931), it was the beginning of a incomparable film career. He conquered the big screen as a snotty and freckled youth with Berliner tongue in no time.
  • After his supporting role as a lazy schoolboy in Die Feuerzangenbowle (1944), Richter got drafted into the German Wehrmacht and was also in war imprisonment for some time.
  • He was awarded with the Order of Merit of the Federal Republic of Germany in 1983.
  • Began his screen career as a child actor.
