Born: Marie Karoline Rökk on November 3, 1913 in Cairo, Egypt
Died: May 16, 2004 (age 90) in Baden, Lower Austria, Austria http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0753937/ was an Austrian-German singer, dancer and actress of Hungarian descent, who became famous in German films, notably in the Nazi era. Life and work Rökk was born in Cairo, Egypt, the daughter of the Hungarian architect Eduard Rökk and his wife Maria Karoly. She spent her early childhood in Budapest, before in 1924 her family moved to Paris. Here she learned to dance and starred as a dancer with the "Hoffmann Girls" at the Moulin Rouge cabaret. After a tour that led her to the Broadway and several cities in the United States, she came to the United Kingdom where she acted in her first film, Why Sailors Leave Home (1930) directed by Monty Banks, starring Leslie Fuller. In 1934, Rökk was offered a contract with the Universum Film AG (UFA) in Germany, where she became one of the most famous filmstars of the time, performing in operetta movies like Leichte Kavallerie, Der Bettelstudent or Gasparone together with Johannes Heesters. She had her final breakthrough with a double role in Kora Terry, a 1940 film directed by her future husband Georg Jacoby with several dance interludes quite revealing at that time. In the same year, Rökk appeared in the propaganda film Wunschkonzert by Eduard von Borsody (as herself), followed by her performance in Georg Jacoby's Women Are Better Diplomats (Frauen sind doch bessere Diplomaten, UFA's first Agfacolor motion picture) in 1941, together with Willy Fritsch. After World War II, she received a profession ban, but was rehabilitated in 1947 and could continue her movie career. In 1948 she was among the first recipients of the German Bambi media award. Rökk became one of Europe's most famous operetta singers, performing on stage until 1986. She was married to Georg Jacoby from 1940 until his death in 1964, and to Hungarian actor Fred Raul from 1968 until he died in 1985. She is the mother of actress Gabriele Jacoby. Rökk died of a heart attack in Baden bei Wien, Austria.

Marika Rökk in seethrough swimsuit at Jones Beach, N.Y. @ "Und Du mein Schatz kommst mit"
This is at 1930s Jones Beach, Long Island. What strange kind of bathing-suit is THAT?

I'm very happy to see there are more fans of Marika Rökk here! Undeservedly she is almost completely unknown nowadays, which tells more about our times than about the great dancer, actress and singer!
Almost nothing of her movies have been translated in english, and I had no luck trying to find her early english language movies. Und du mein Schatz fährst mit! (1936, literally "And you my Treasure/Darling fares/travels with/along"). Scene of this movie is New York. This makes it even more sad this movie hasn't been dubbed or translated as far as I know.

Marika Rökk @ "Und du mein Schatz fährst mit" (1937)
. No logos, good quality! Premiere of this movie was January 1937. It was filmed july-september 1936. So Marika is 22 on these pictures...
2 Videoclips from this movie. [ mod edit - dead link(s) removed] 2nd clip. Its worth to play with gamma, contrast and brightness a little while watching. see here for preview with other gamma-value in videoplayer. Seethrough! [ mod edit - dead link(s) removed]
