Leonhard Steckel and Lien Deyers in a foreign publicity still for Die Verliebte Firma (Company's in Love, 1932). It was the first film of Max Ophuls. Max's entry among my best 1,001 movies is the third of his three Hollywood movies - The Reckless Moment (1949). Max has five entries on the TSPDT list of the 1,000 Greatest Films - Madame De (ranked number 107), Letter from an Unknown Woman (121), Le Plaisir (355), Lola Montes (365), and The Reckless Moment (993).

The cover illustration is by F.L. These initials could be Fritz Lang's, but I do not know for sure. It is possible Lang contributed concept/design work to the film and this could have been one of them.
