The Green Emperor (German: Der grüne Kaiser) is a 1939 German crime film directed by Paul Mundorf and starring Gustav Diessl, Carola Höhn and René Deltgen. It was inspired by the real-life case of a Belgian financier who had gone missing during a flight across the English Channel.[1]
The film's sets were designed by the art director Erich Kettelhut. Location shooting took place in the countryside outside Berlin during 1938. It premiered in Vienna in February 1939.
