He appeared in numerous German films, often anti-war, before moving on to Hollywood.Schell was top billed in a number of Nazi-era themed films, as he could speak both English and German. Among those were two films for which he received Oscar nominations: The Man in the Glass Booth (1975; best actor), where he played a character with two identities, and Julia (1977; best supporting actor), where he helps the underground in Nazi Germany.His range of acting went beyond German characters, however; and during his career, he also played personalities as diverse as Venezuelan leader Sim³n Bol­var, Russian emperor Peter the Great, and physicist Albert Einstein.
