He was always where it was nice: whether in the "dream hotel" or on the "island", the "clinic under palms" or on the "dream ship" - the list of lovely places is almost endless, a locus amoenus joinsthe other.What always seemed to the actor Christian Kohlund was the lightweight one.

And that despite the fact that he completed the Viennese Max Reinhardt seminar and was initially seen on large stages-from the Munich Residenztheater to the Theater in the Josefstadt and the Freie Volksbühne to the Schauspielhaus Zurich.That it became the light genre for many television years - maybe he has set up in the knowledge that everyone, once put in the drawer, because it no longer comes out so quickly.

Christian Kohlund im Zürich-Krimi : Lonesome Cowboy

For a good five years, however - it is very lucky, for the loyal, grateful spectator of up to seven million anyway, for himself, the shallow passé.Christian Kohlund plays Thomas Borchert, and he plays that almost hardly any figure beforehand.

Borchert is the idiosyncratic, unorthodox lawyer in the "Zurich crime novels", which the ARD shows alternately with numerous country thrillers on Thursday.She all distinguishes that German -speaking actresses go through French, Croatian, Turkish landscapes, speak German there, wear typical role names and the like foreign bodies.Quite different from Borchert: "The Zurich-Krimi" works in everything, and, it is more than just a note on the edge, the protagonist comes from Basel: Christian Kohlund, who now lives not far from Passau, is born in Swiss.

Zurich-Krimi stands out from the one hand

"The Zurich-Krimi", started in 2016, also stands out so beneficially from the thunderstractual crime thriller, since it is created in his concept of clear, conciso and sober, never drifted into Zurich's postcard kitsch and mostly takes up serious, socio-political topics.This Borchert is the reduction to the essentials, to the core of things-with all of this is the figure of the Lonesome Cowboys, who has no handful of friends, with a credible grade of the humanistic gesture, which the 71-year-old actor rumored with his sonorVoice to interpret the most excellent one.

"Borchert and bitter medicine" is the name of the 14.Fall of the "Zurich-Krimis", staged by Hansjörg Thurn after a script by Wolf Jakoby, who, apart from a few exceptions, has written most Borchert books so far.When Reto Zanger (Robert Hunger-Bühler), father of Borchert's manager Dominique Kuster (Ina Paule Klink), one evening shortly after the shop closes to the window of a pharmacy, the prospective pharmacist Sina Leuthold (Thekla Hartmann) does not want to open at first.But Zanger urgently needs new cardiac medication, and so the young woman finally opens him, but Zanger is a regular customer with pharmacist Siebert (Filip Peeters).When Zanger enters the pharmacy, Sina forgets to complete behind him.A masked man storms into the store and urges Sina to open the drug safety.The masked Zanger shoots and seriously injures him.

Breach of duty

Pharmacist Siebert, Golfplatz partner of Reto Zanger, announces Sina, since she committed a breach of duty and sold medication after closing time.Sina is only missing from the internship a few weeks in order to be able to complete her studies.No pharmacy would subsequently set them.So Sina's path leads to Borchert and thus to Christian Kohlund.
