About The Gambler
The Gambler is a 1938 German drama film directed by Gerhard Lamprecht and starring Eugen Klöpfer, Lída Baarová, and Hedwig Bleibtreu. It is based on Fyodor Dostoevsky's 1866 novel The Gambler. Due to the scandal over Baarová's affair with Joseph Goebbels, followed by her return to Czechoslovakia, the film was withdrawn from cinemas three days after its release. It was not given a release again until 1950. A similar fate had befallen another film of hers, A Prussian Love Story. It was shot at the Johannisthal Studios in Berlin. The film's sets were designed by the art directors Robert Herlth and Heinrich Weidemann. A separate French-language version Le Joueur (1938) was also released, with Pierre Blanchar and Viviane Romance.
