The Man You Loved to Hate

BBC Two
on BBC Two England

In celebration of the centenary of Erich von
Stroheim's birth and the London West End release of his 'lost' masterpiece Queen Kelly, BBC2 presents a film portrait of one of the cinema's most controversial and tragic figures.
Von Stroheim was dubbed 'The Man You Love to
Hate' for his portrayals of stiff-necked Prussian officers.
He went on to direct some of the silent screen's most remarkable films, but his wildly extravagant productions brought him into conflict with the studio bosses.
This programme looks at his extraordinary lifestyle and wayward talent.
