Line 18: In 1912 Liedtke appeared for the first time in the [[silent movie]] ''Zu spät'' and from now on usually as a young ''Charming Boy'' and gentleman. With [[Ernst Lubitsch]] he made movies like ''Das fidele Gefängnis'' (1917), ''Die Augen der Mumie Ma'' (1918), ''Carmen'' (1918), ''[[The Oyster Princess\|Die Austernprinzessin]]'' (1919), ''Madame Dubarry'' (1919), ''Sumurun'' (1920) and ''Das Weib des Pharao'' (1921). He also appeared in several crime stories as ''Stuart Webbs'' und ''Joe Deebs'' written by [[Joe May]]. Liedtke was a popular actor in the 1920s and partner of [[Marlene Dietrich]] in ''[[I Kiss Your Hand, Madame]]'' (1929). Liedtke met with less success in [[sound film]]s, probably due to his advancing age.
