RE: Swan at Sunrise / Schwan bei Sonnenaufgang
He is Austrian, and what can you expect from an Austrian? Only the best, of course ;) lol
I think, that not his muscles made him so big, but his personality and his accent :)
Yes sir, and knowing which roles to take didn't hurt either!
That's true no other face would have fit to Conan the Barbarian ;)
Exactly! His first major movie, I bet that was a national event for everyone to go see that wasn't it? You were just a teenager?
There was no cinema, where I grew up, and these movies came very much later on TV. I think, I was about 20, when I saw this film, and I did not know, that he was Austrian.
Oh! That is not what I thought it would be like at all! lol. I thought the whole country would be watching and supporting him.
Maybe where he lived in Styria the people have been more proud of him and so, but as far as I remember, he has become really very popular in our country when the Terminator movies began, but don't take me for granted.
Of course, when he became the Governor of California he became a Superstar here too 😎
Very interesting sir johannpiber! What is Styria, is that a city?
Styria is a state in Austria, like I am living in Carinthia, the southernmost state. Styria is our neighbor state in the nord and east: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/States_of_Austria
