their first and unfortunately last Film-the main role she played at the age of 86 years. That was “The last punchline” by Rolf Lyssy, and Monica Gubser embodied in this charming Comedy, a single Elderly woman who is afraid to get stupid just before the end. The reason: she knows nothing of a Dating platform, you should have an elegant Englishman exchanged, and promotes personally to your favor. As Gubser deserve to be in this life woman who wants to take euthanasia claim, with an almost bünzligen solicitude played, fathered by Ernst and ease and they also received their first Nomination for the Swiss film prize.

Gubser, 1931 born in Zurich, found as a 13-Year-old, thanks to Shakespeare’s “the tempest” Like at the theatre. She graduated from the acting school in Zürich, but then she moved to Basel, where she received on-the-town theater first Engagements. As the supply of female roles was scarce, she had to look for Alternatives. So Gubser went on the advice of a Director to Solothurn, where she played four years at the theatre and, among other things, the Antigone and the Hermia from “a Midsummer night’s dream”.

The long retreat

What followed, however, was the large stage career, but a retreat into the Private. Gubser met in Solothurn her husband, with whom she had three children, and together they ran a Restaurant. This is the reason why she gave up acting for over 30 years and only returned as a 60-Year-old to the profession; on the stage, but also in the cinema and on television.

At the beginning of Monica Gubsers age career Gertrud Frick stood in the SRF Soap Opera “Lüthi & Blanc” (2002), still known it was free as part of a seniors Quartet in the Comedy “The fall” (2006), by Bettina Oberli, with you standing there, kind of in the shadow of Stephanie Glaser. They played in the “Last punch line” is still a main role in a feature film, sees the film’s Director, Rolf Lyssy as a “stroke of luck”. “That has not yet worked out, is comforting – with all the sadness.” Gubser was a lively and curious personality.

On Wednesday has died, Monica Gubser of 88 years. “She is gone now almost the same as in the movie,” says Lyssy. “Better you wouldn’t be able to wish.”
