Tales from the Vienna Woods
That same year, Truus worked for director Georg Jacoby again - twice - first on an Ufa short film called "Eine Ideale Wohnung" ("An Ideal Flat"), and then on his "Tales from the Vienna Woods". Shot in Austria, this was a musical with tunes by Johann Strauss. Musicals were extremely popular, and Viennese operettas could always find an enthusiastic German audience. The Nazi government didn't encourage the production of propaganda movies - they knew that the public would best be reassured by comfy subjects.
