Adolph Milar (1895-1950) was born in Switzerland, but had a career in American films that lasted over 25 years.
From 1919, Milar played featured supporting roles in many silent films, but tended to be restricted to ethnic roles with the coming of sound, owing to his accent. He made an auspicious start with his first talking picture, Bulldog Drummond (1929). Later, he came to specialize in nazis, notably in Fritz Lang’s Man Hunt (1941) and in The Hitler Gang (1944), by which time he was usually uncredited.
Milar appeared as a police officer in Call of the Flesh.
