[edit] Biography
Robert Stadlober was born 3 August 1982 in the Austrian province of Carinthia and grew up in Puchfeld in the Steiermark (Austria) and in Berlin (Germany). As a child he worked as a voiceover artist for several films and he acted in different TV productions and motion picture films also. His largest success is playing the main role as Benjamin Lebert, a partially disabled teenager at a boarding school, in the film Crazy (2000). Later, he starred in Sommersturm (Summer Storm) (2004), a gay coming-of-age story set at a rowing summer-camp. Although The Advocate has claimed that he is bisexual,[1] Stadtlober himself objects to such labelling, saying that he's just had some homosexual experiences and that this is normal.[2]
He was awarded the "best young actor" award at the Montreal International Film Festival in 2004 for his portrayal in Summer Storm.
He is also a singer and musician. He used to be in the rock Band Gary with David Winter and Rasmus Englerwhere he was the lead singer and played the guitar. He is now a third of Indie band Escorial Gruen.
Further, since 2007 he also runs the independent record label Siluh records.
Until 2007, he made three movies together with Tom Schilling: Crazy (2000), Verschwende Deine Jugend (2003) and Schwarze Schafe (2006).
Robert Stadlober currently lives in Berlin (2008).
