Ludwig Schmitz (January 28, 1884 – June 28, 1954) was a German film actor. He appeared in more than forty films during his career including the 1951 comedy The Heath Is Green.[1] He was part of the popular comedy duo Tran and Helle along with Joseph "Jupp" Hussels.
Schmitz was a member of the SS from 1 March 1934 and a member of the Nazi Party from May 1937. It was only in the 1950s that the popular comedian was seen again in the West German cinema. He died of a heart attack in 1954.[2]
