He is one of my favourite actors and despite searching in the internet for years, I have not been able to find much information about him. Interesting to learn that he does not like his work with JF and that this is mutual. This would probably explain why JF hardly ever talks about Muller in interviews (although they did so many films together). Anyway, thanks for your efforts, I am really looking forward to reading the PM interview.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30886366.post-1173735594529373052007-03-12T18:39:00.000-04:002007-03-12T18:39:00.000-04:00Thanks for that direct-from-JF info, Doug.

I'm collecting interviews with Franco related people, actors, etc. And when I get enough together something will happen. Muller was not happy working with JF and I think the feeling was mutual. But he gave excellent performances in those films.Robert Monellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06309327472702575547noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30886366.post-1173728927223377452007-03-12T16:48:00.000-04:002007-03-12T16:48:00.000-04:00I LOVE Mueller!

Especially when he is flaoting in the air with the noose around his neck. Franco told me that they got that shot by having Paul stand on the dolly chair. INSANE! So, when is the interview going to happen? And if he's available for work why hasn't Franco been putting him in his newer stuff?Douglas A.

I actually like WOMEN BEHIND BARS, the film made in secret, better than BARBED WIRE DOLLS, the film which he was hired to make by ED productions. I always prefer JF's lowest budgeted serie Z films over his bigger budgeted efforts.Robert Monellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06309327472702575547noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30886366.post-1173179847964327522007-03-06T06:17:00.000-05:002007-03-06T06:17:00.000-05:00"so, did Franco really use Dietrich's money for th..."so, did Franco really use Dietrich's money for the second movie shot concurrently???"<BR/><BR/>I think he did that to produce DORIANA GREY when shooting another film for Dietrich.

It awaits publication.
