Contents |
Verhoeven is the son of German film director, Paul Verhoeven (not to be confused with the Dutch film director Paul Verhoeven). He married actress Senta Berger in 1966. Together, the couple formed a production company to make films. The anti-Vietnam War film, o.k. was entered into the Berlin International Film Festival, but a scandal forced a collapse of the festival without the awarding of any prizes.
In 1982, Verhoeven released Die weiße Rose (The White Rose), which, with the Best Foreign film nomination of Das schreckliche Mädchen (The Nasty Girl) in 1990, cemented his reputation as an important political contributor to German film. Along with his films Mutters Courage (Mother's Courage) and documentary Der unbekannte Soldat (The Unknown Soldier), they have been hailed as an unstinting examination of Germany's Nazi period.
