Biography
The Film Director attended the Berlin bookburning rally at Germany in 1938. She filmed Nazi leader Adolf Hitler when the latter went up to the podium to be seen by the crowd that was attending the event, along Hitler's most loyal and trusted officers of his High Command, like Heinrich Himmler and Elsa Schneider.

Behind the scenes
The Film Director was played by veteran German actress Suzanne Roquette in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. In spite the fact that Roquette's scenes were filmed, however, all her scenes were deleted from the finished version of the film.

While the Last Crusade film doesn't mention this, the Film Director was initally assumed to be Leni Riefenstahl, Adolf Hitler's official biographer, and it was even mentioned in Jeffrey Boam's earlier drafts of the script. Despite the fact that Riefenstahl was a Nazi sympathizer, both director Steven Spielberg and writer George Lucas had great admiration for Riefenstahl, as she directed the famous German documentary films Triumph des Willens and Olympia.
