Cast

Actors credited in the German version, in credit order, now with additional actors added who appear in the Italian credits, but not the German.

The only copies to be found online, including Italian and Spanish language prints, all come with the same very minimal German credits. From online listings it looks like there are probably even more actors who would be credited in the Spanish credits, but this still needs confirming.

Unidentified actors

Unidentified credited actors

• José María Caffarel - ANICA and IMDb as Psychiatrist, but the only psychiatrist in the film is the one played by Queipo, and José María does not appear elsewhere.
• Michael Cramer - ANICA and IMDb as Pablo. There is no character by this name, at least not in the English or Spanish versions and, based on images online, Cramer does not appear.
• Hildegarde Knef - Knef was a well-known German actress who usually played lead or featured roles and if she did appear you would certainly expect to find her in the German credits, but she does not and is not.

Uncredited actors listed as appearing by other sources, but not identified

• María Mayer - EdCE. On IMDb she only has one title listed with no role and it isn't this one.
• Heine Rachte - ANICA with no role.
