Question: Do both directors of films Body And Soul (1947 Film) and Fire Of Love (1925 Film) have the same nationality?

The screenplay by Abraham Polonsky is partly based on the 1939 film" Golden Boy". Body and Soul is a 1947 American film noir sports drama directed by Robert Rossen, and features John Garfield, Lilli Palmer, Hazel Brooks, Anne Revere and William Conrad. With cinematography by James Wong Howe, the film is considered by some to be one of the best films about boxing. It is also a cautionary tale about the lure of money—and how it can derail even a strong common man in his pursuit of success. <SEP> His 1949 film "All the King's Men" won Oscars for Best Picture, Best Actor and Best Supporting Actress, while Rossen was nominated for an Oscar as Best Director. Robert Rossen (March 16, 1908 – February 18, 1966) was an American screenwriter, film director, and producer whose film career spanned almost three decades. He won the Golden Globe for Best Director and the film won the Golden Globe Award for Best Picture. In 1961, he directed "The Hustler", which was nominated for nine Oscars and won two. After directing and writing for the stage in New York, Rossen moved to Hollywood in 1937. From there, he worked as a screenwriter for Warner Bros. until 1941, and then interrupted his career to serve until 1944 as the chairman of the Hollywood Writers Mobilization, a body to organize writers for the effort in World War II. In 1945, he joined a picket line against Warner Bros. After making one film for Hal B. Wallis's newly formed production company, Rossen made one for Columbia Pictures, another for Wallis and most of his later films for his own companies, usually in collaboration with Columbia. Rossen was a member of the American Communist Party from 1937 to about 1947, and believed the Party was "dedicated to social causes of the sort that we as poor Jews from New York were interested in." He ended all relations with the Party in 1949. Rossen was twice called before the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC), in 1951 and in 1953. He exercised his Fifth Amendment rights at his first appearance, refusing to state whether he had ever been a Communist. As a result, he found himself blacklisted by Hollywood studios as well as unable to renew his passport. At his second appearance he named 57 people as current or former Communists and his blacklisting ended. In order to repair finances he produced his next film, "Mambo", in Italy in 1954. While "The Hustler" in 1961 was a great success, conflicts on the set of "Lilith" so disillusioned him that it was his last film. <SEP> Body and Soul is a 1981 American drama film written by and starring Leon Isaac Kennedy, and co-starring his then- wife Jayne Kennedy. Directed by George Bowers, it is a remake of the 1947 film, a story of corruption, violence and temptation between a boxer and a knockout. <SEP> Body and Soul is a 2000 American sports drama film starring Rod Steiger, Jennifer Beals, Michael Chiklis, Tahnee Welch, Ray Mancini and Joe Mantegna.

Paul Ludwig Stein( 4 February 1892 – 2 May 1951) was an Austrian- born film director with 67 films to his credit. In 1931, Stein relocated to England after gaining a contract with British International Pictures, where he was assigned a number of big- name prestige productions, including some of the popular operetta films of the mid-1930s. These included" Blossom Time" and" Heart's Desire" starring his boyhood friend Richard Tauber, who also made cameo appearances in two of his post-war films" Waltz Time" and" Lisbon Story". For most his career, Stein's credits tended to be films primarily aimed at female audiences, although later he also directed crime and spy thrillers. Stein remained in England for the rest of his life and career, becoming a British citizen in 1938. <SEP> The film's sets were designed by the art director Walter Reimann. It was distributed by the major studio UFA. Fire of Love( German: Liebesfeuer) is a 1925 German silent film directed by Paul L. Stein and starring Liane Haid, Alphons Fryland and Walter Rilla.
