Which director was English, Ernst Lubitsch or Chris Menges?
Ernst Lubitsch Ernst Lubitsch ( ; January 29, 1892November 30, 1947) was a German American film director, producer, writer, and actor. His urbane comedies of manners gave him the reputation of being Hollywood's most elegant and sophisticated director; as his prestige grew, his films were promoted as having "the Lubitsch touch". Among his most famous works are "Trouble in Paradise", "Ninotchka", "The Shop Around the Corner" and "To Be or Not to Be".
Rudolf Klein-Rogge Friedrich Rudolf Klein-Rogge (24 November 1885 – 29 May 1955) was a German film actor. Klein-Rogge is known for playing sinister figures in films in the 1920s and 1930s as well as being a main-stay in director Fritz Lang's Weimar-era films. He is probably best known in popular culture, particularly to English-speaking audiences, for playing the archetypal mad scientist role of C.A. Rotwang in Lang's "Metropolis" and as the criminal genius Doctor Mabuse.
