#	Fact
1	When the sound film heralded a new era in the cinemas the music of Werner Richard Heymann became more important than ever.
2	A documentary film about his career, So Wie Ein Wunder, featuring his daughter Elisabeth Trautwein, and directed by New German Cinema auteur Helma Sanders-Brahms, was shown on German television in 2012.
3	He made first musical experiences by Max Brode and at the age of 12 he played the violin for the Königsberger philharmonic orchestra for the first time.
4	His artistic way became interrupted with the outbreak of World War I and he served as a soldier for a short time before he was released because of illness.
5	Already in 1926 he became the musical director of the UFA and in the next years he wrote numerous compositions for popular silent movies.
6	The émigré German director Ernst Lubitsch got him to work on 5 of his classic American comedies.He also scored 2 films by another great comedy director, Preston Sturges Heymann was an Academy Award nominee four times in the early 1940s.
7	Beside his work for movies he also left musical contributions like the so-called Serious Music (e.g. "Rhapsodische Sinfonie"), operettas (e.g. "Florestan I. Prfince de Monaco" and "Trente et Quarante"), hits and cabaret music (e.g. für "Schall und Rauch", "Cabaret Grössenwahn", "Die Rampe" and "Die Wilde Bühne").
8	His memoirs, recorded on tape during his last years, were published as an autobiography in Germany in 2001.
9	He returned to Germany in 1951 and could continue his work seamlessly.
10	He wrote numerous evergreens.
11	After World War II, he returned to Germany where he wrote the music for a stage version of the classic film The Blue Angel in 1952.
12	He went via London to the USA again and this time he managed to establish himself in the American film business in 1937. From now on he wrote numerous film soundtracks for popular movies.
13	During this creative career Werner Richard Heymann was nominated for a total of four Oscars but never won one.
14	He had once summed up his thoughts thus: "I love my wife, my child, the world, eating, drinking, smoking, driving. I love freedom. I hate dictatorship, godlessness, writing scores, wool next to my skin, and stones in my shoes. I hope for a United States of Europe.".
15	With the takeover of the National Socialists his impressive career in Germany came to an abrupt end. Because of his Jewish ancestry his contract with the UFA was canceled and he emigrated to Paris. Shortly afterwards he went to Hollywood but was not able to gain a foothold for the time being. Therefore he returned to Paris and he wrote some more movie compositions for productions like "Caravane" (1934) and "Le grand refrain" (1936).
16	Beside his numerous film compositions he also wrote a number of scores for the studios which were called Additional Music or Stock Music. This music was used in many movie productions without the mention of his name.
17	He attended the Königliche Hochschule for music in Berlin where he was teached by Paul Juon.
18	He worked as a composer for cabarets in Berlin, among them "Schall und Rauch" directed by Max Reinhardt. Later he took over the direction of the cabaret himself.
19	The film composer Werner Richard Heymann belonged to the most important composers of the German movie of the 20s and 30s.
20	When Werner Richard Heymann was engaged by movie producer Erich Pommer as an assistant of the musical director of the UFA in 1925 this marked the beginning of a unique career as a film composer.
21	Member of the jury at the Berlin International Film Festival in 1960
