Konrad Wolf
Vergebliche Suche nach der Sonne ("Futile Quest for the Sun")
Potsdamer Neueste Nachrichten, by Moritz Reininghaus, 6 October 2005
(...) Wolf′s 1964 film was supposed to be the starting point for the panel discussion on the issue of "Divided Heaven". Berlin film scholar Ulrich Gregor said the film was "doubtlessly interesting". (...) Daniela Dahn, publicist and former civil rights activist recalled how she had been invited to the home of Christa and Gerhard Wolf as a 15-year-old to be offered cookies and literature education. Doubtlessly moving, but hardly of any interest for current matters. The same is true for Ulrich Gregor′s first-hand account of how he screened the film in West Germany and was assisted by Konrad Wolf himself.

"Good bye, Johnny"
Peter Kreuder estate to be integrated into film museum′s collections
Märkische Allgemeine Zeitung, 12 July 2005
The film museum will be given the estate of composer Peter Kreuder, who would have celebrated his 100th birthday on 18 August. Kreuder′s hits are still remembered, although many of them were written more than 60 years ago: "Ich brauche keine Millionen", "Good bye, Johnny", "Ich wollt′ ich wär′ ein Huhn", "Sag beim Abschied leise Servus", "Wenn die Sonne hinter den Dächern versinkt" are only some of his evergreens.
In honour of Kreuder, some of the items from the collection will be on display in the film museum′s foyer showcases. Yesterday, it was announced that Kreuder′s last wife Ingrid will be handing her husband′s estate over to the film museum on 21 July. A film series and a celebration will be held to honour a composer to whom German and international cinema owes a huge number of songs that were worldwide successes.

Ufa-Star beschenkt Potsdam
("UFA-Star Makes Gift to Potsdam")
Märkische Allgemeine Zeitung, by Robert Rudolf, 11/12 December 2004
Ilse Werner, Ufa′s celebrity of the 1940s, pin-up girl of German soldiers and famous for her whistling, must have moved around 80 times in her life. On her luggage were photographs, letters, records, film props and awards. They are now returning to the place that made the Jakarta-born Dutchwoman famous: to Potsdam. Surrounded by photographers, journalists, old companions, friends and admirers, Werner handed her collection over to the film museum yesterday. When asked whether she would like to return herself, she gives a short laugh and says "Oh, that would be so wonderful." But the 83-year-old′s physical condition is no longer as good as to allow her to be on her own. She has therefore resigned to a senior citizen′s residence close to Lübeck. (...)
Before Ilse Werner entered her name into the city′s golden book, the film museum showed a sequence from her movie "Wir machen Musik", which shows a young, whistling and dancing Ilse Werner. (...)
