A supporting actor and bit player from Germany, in Hollywood from the late '30s, Louis Adlon was the son of the great Berlin hotel owner. Although his Hollywood screen roles were miniscule at best -- almost always secondary Nazis -- Adlon later gained fame as the main character of the 1997 semi-documentary In der Glanzwollen Welt der Adlon Hotel (The Glamorous World of the Adlon Hotel), written and directed by his nephew, German cult director Percy Adlon. Louis Adlon left Hollywood for Berlin in 1945 to function as overseas correspondent for the Hearst papers and there found the old family hostelry almost unharmed by the allied bombardments. The role of Louis was played in the film by his great-nephew (and Percy's son), Felix Adlon.
