More detail on Paul Lukas?

This fine old movie (and stage) actor is mentioned briefly in the commentary attached to the DVD JUDGMENT AT NUREMBURG 1961. Lukas did NOT play in that film, but apparently was in an earlier version of that great play. It is assumed people know who he was...

Maybe someone can assemble more old film and stage data on him. For instance, his portrayal of Prof. Bhaer in the 1930's version of Little Women is particularly fine and he is a sinister (tho genteel) villain in Hitchcock's The Lady Vanishes.Victorianezine (talk) 11:44, 13 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Paul Lukas also guest-starred on the radio program "Amos & Andy" in the episode "The Nazi Spy" dated 6-2-1944. He played himself, and discussed wanting to get away from playing Nazi parts in films. The announcer said he had just completed starring in the movie "Uncertain Glory." 75.121.39.62 (talk) 11:53, 1 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Birth Year

Does anyone have anything concrete on this? Everywhere said 1887, then sites started saying 1894 or 1895, now IMDb says 1891. What's up???Crisso (talk) 15:59, 19 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Who knows. Most of the interlang WP sites say 1895. IMDb has 1891, but IBDb has 1887. His death date also varies between 15 and 16 August 1971. Confusion all around. Is there a decent, properly sourced biography out there? -- Jack of Oz ^{[your turn]} 03:11, 9 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I have his two marriages. This is probably the first, 26 March 1918 Budapest, 7th district, this states that he was born in 1894, and his natural parents were Adolf Munkácsi and Mária Schneckendorf, and was later adopted by János Lukács. I don't know if he was born into a Jewish family, but in 1918 he is already Roman Catholic. Second marriage 20 May 1927, Budapest 8th distict. Gyurika (talk) 06:52, 25 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

born Pál Lukács

Surely this should be "born Lukács Pál," as the surname comes first in Hungarian. Kostaki mou (talk) 01:12, 15 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

While I'm on the subject, as his biological father was named Adolf Munkácsi (Munkácsi Adolf in Hungarian usage) and Lukács was the surname of his adoptive father, he was actually born Pál Munkácsi (or Munkácsi Pál). Kostaki mou (talk) 18:25, 2 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
