 From 1930 until her retirement in 1953, she remained a screen favorite in German, British, and Italian films, and late in life, she was invited to make her screen comeback, in the 1987's "Schloss Konigswald".She spent her old age at Herrsching, and died at Gilching near Starnberg, where she had lived during the last year of her life.Between April 1972 and February 1973 a song was written about her by the then-unsigned Bruce Springsteen.
