Eva-Ingeborg Scholz and Dermot Breen

Cork Film Festival, Eva-Ingeborg Scholz, Dermot Breen

This is a black and white photo of the German film actor Eva-Ingeborg Scholz and festival director Dermot Breen. Scholz, wearing a velvet cape over a dark dress trimmed with white fur, is shown in profile smiling up at Breen as they chat. Whorls of smoke from Breen's cigarette float past the festival ribbon pinned to his lapel. The photo appears to be signed in dark ink across the lower half of the picture.

The photo is undated but we place it c.1959 when Scholz came to Cork for the screening of The Girl from the Marsh Croft (Das Mädchen vom Moohof) (Gustav Ucicky, 1958) starring Claus Holm, who also came to Cork. The film was shown at the festival on 30th September 1959. The 1959 festival programme notes that the film was based on a novel by the Swedish novelist Selma Lagerlöf and deals with love, lust and violence in a small Swedish town.
