When Did Helmut Weiss Die?

Helmut Weiss was a German actor, screenwriter, and film director. He was notable for directing Tell the Truth, the first film produced after the Second World War in what was to become West Germany. It was made in Hamburg in the British Zone of Occupation. Much of the film had already been made at the UFA studios in Berlin shortly before the arrival of the Red Army, but Weiss dramatically re-shot it.
