'''Christiane Susanne Kubrick''' ([[Given name#Name at birth|née]] '''Harlan'''; born 10 May 1932) is a German actress
==Life and career==
Christiane Susanne Harlan was born in [[Braunschweig]], [[Lower Saxony]], [[Weimar Republic|Germany]], in 1932, the daughter of two opera singers, Ingeborg (''née'' de Freitas) and Fritz Moritz Harlan. She was trained as an actress, but became better known as a painter. Success in her early career as an actress led to her being cast in the film ''[[Paths of Glory]]'' by [[Stanley Kubrick]], being credited as Susanne Christian.<ref name="imdb">[https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0473583/ Christiane Kubricκ] in the [[IMDb|Internet Movie Database]]</ref><ref name="flinch">[http://film.guardian.co.uk/interview/interviewpages/0,6737,1461458,00.html " 'I flinch at those stories about crazy Stanley' "] by Sean O'Hagan, ''[[The Observer]]'', 17 April 2005</ref>
In the final scene of ''[[Paths of Glory]]'', the young woman she plays is forced to sing to a tavern full of rowdy and disillusioned French soldiers. Her rendition in German of the German folk song ''Ein treuer Husar'' (''[[The Faithful Hussar]]'') slowly wins the hearts of the crowd of men, who stop their mocking and carousing, and, one by one, begin to hum and sing along, many of them in tears.<ref name="flinch" />

The film was shown at the Vatican on the evening of Thursday 1 March under the aegis of the [[Pontifical Council for Social Communications]]. In 1996, that council listed the Kubrick film among the most important films of the twentieth century. The screening at the Vatican in 2001 was also attended by Archbishop [[John Patrick Foley|John Foley]], who then was the president of the Pontifical Council for Social Communications.
Christiane's brother, [[Jan Harlan]], was the executive producer for all of [[Stanley Kubrick]]'s films from ''[[Barry Lyndon]]'' (1975) onward. Following Kubrick's death in 1999, he became the director of the documentary ''[[Stanley Kubrick: A Life in Pictures]]'', in which Christiane took full part, appearing for the interview with her paintings.<ref>''[https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0278736/ Stanley Kubrick: A Life in Pictures]'' in the
