Τομ Σίλινγκ

biography:
Ο Τομ Σίλινγκ (Tom Schilling) είναι Γερμανός ηθοποιός του κινηματογράφου και της τηλεόρασης. Μεγάλωσε στον πρώην Ανατολικογερμανικό δήμο του Berlin Mitte. Ανακαλύφθηκε σε ηλικία 12 ετών από τον σκηνοθέτη Thomas Heise και έπαιξε στο θεατρικό έργο Im Schlagschatten des Mondes (Κάτω από τη σκιά του φεγγαριού) στη θεατρική ομάδα Berliner Ensemble, με την οποία έμεινε για τα επόμενα τέσσερα χρόνια για να παίξει και σε άλλες παραγωγές. Οι δουλειές του ηθοποιού του κέρδισαν αρκετά χρήματα για να φύγει από το σπίτι των γονιών του όταν ήταν 18 ετών και ακόμα στο σχολείο. Έφυγε από το σχολείο με πιστοποιητικό Abitur.

Το ντεμπούτο του Σίλινγκ στην οθόνη ήταν το 1996, όταν εμφανίστηκε στην τηλεοπτική σειρά Sat.1 Hallo, Onkel Doc! σε ηλικία 14 ετών. Αργότερα πήρε το καστ στη θεατρική ταινία Paradise Mall (1999), όπου έπαιξε δίπλα στους Franka Potente, Daniel Brühl και Heiner Lauterbach, αλλά η σημαντική ανακάλυψη έγινε για αυτόν με την ερμηνεία του στο Crazy (2000, σκηνοθεσία του Hans-Christian Schmid ), για το οποίο έλαβε το Βραβείο Ταλαντούχου Νέου Ηθοποιού του Bayerischer Filmpreis.

Στην ταινία του 2004 πριν από την πτώση (Γερμανικός τίτλος: Napola – Elite für den Führer , σε σκηνοθεσία Ντένις Γκάνσελ ) με καλές κριτικές, ο Σίλινγκ εμφανίστηκε δίπλα στον Μαξ Ρίμελτ ως νεαρός και εύθραυστος μαθητής σε ένα σχολείο ελίτ των Ναζί ( Νάπολα ). Το 2006 έλαβε υποτροφία για το Ινστιτούτο Lee Strasberg στη Νέα Υόρκη, όπου φοίτησε για ένα εξάμηνο.

Αργότερα δόθηκε στον Σίλινγκ ο ρόλος του νεαρού Αδόλφου Χίτλερ στην ταινία του Urs Odermatt το 2009 Mein Kampf με συμπρωταγωνιστή τον Götz George.

Ο Schilling ήθελε αρχικά να γίνει ζωγράφος και να σπουδάσει τέχνη μετά το σχολείο. Σε μια συνέντευξή του το 2008 είπε ότι δεν ήταν και πολύ εξωστρεφής και ότι γι' αυτόν το να πρέπει να παραδίδεται καθημερινά ήταν ένα σημαντικό μειονέκτημα του να ασχολείται με το επάγγελμα του ηθοποιού.

Το 2006, ο Σίλινγκ απέκτησε έναν γιο από μια γυναίκα της οποίας το όνομα δεν είναι γνωστό. Την άνοιξη του 2014 αυτός και η σύντροφός του, η βοηθός σκηνοθέτη Annie Mosebach, απέκτησαν έναν γιο, ακολουθούμενο από μια κόρη τον Ιανουάριο του 2017. Στις αρχές του 2019, ο Σίλινγκ και η Mosebach παντρεύτηκαν.

title: Die Geschichte der Menschheit - leicht gekürzt

overview: In order to leave a lasting impression in space, Dr. Georg Friedle and his team of researchers include a condensed version of world history with the 1977 Voyager mission. However, their attempt to present themselves as an intelligent and empathic race backfires unchecked: their version presents a completely insane species whose development is apparently based on pure luck rather than solid reason. A planet where Greek philosophers are celebrated as rap stars, religion is touted as a clever marketing concept, stag parties serve as a secret weapon in the First World War and the construction of the Great Wall of China is a misunderstanding of honest Berlin craftsmanship. Even the revelation of the alleged true background to the assassination attempt on Hitler is likely to make experienced historians see the end of humanity as a mere matter of time.
