Life
Ernst Hannawald was discovered at the age of 17 by Wolfgang Petersen for his film Die Konsequenz. The homosexual romantic drama caused a scandal in 1977 because the Bayerischer Rundfunk switched off the broadcast during the programme. Hannawald continued to act mainly in socially critical films. After his second leading role in Die Faust in der Tasche, he was given a smaller role in the film Traffic Jam under the direction of Luigi Comencini.{{Cite journal |last=Rundfunk |first=Bayerischer |date=2023-03-23 |title=Lebenslinien - Vom Überwinden einer Lebenskrise: Ernst Hannawald - Krasser als jeder Film |url=https://www.br.de/br-fernsehen/sendungen/lebenslinien/ernst-hannawald-krasser-als-jeder-film-schauspieler100.html |journal=BR Fernsehen |language=de}}
Hannawald became known nationwide through the series Zeit genug with Toni Berger. He also appeared in the series Irgendwie und Sowieso and Zur Freiheit by Franz Xaver Bogner.
In 1986, Hannawald caused a car accident on Munich's Leopoldstraße in which his then fiancée Lucie and two friends were killed. He himself was seriously injured in the accident and was in a coma. A court later placed partial blame on him, as he had changed direction over a solid line, while the other party in the accident, who had ignored a red traffic light at excessive speed while drunk and thus crashed into his car, was primarily to blame.{{Cite web |date=2020-04-25 |title=Münchner Schauspieler Ernst Hannawald: Eine Nacht veränderte sein Leben |url=https://www.tz.de/stars/muenchner-schauspieler-ernst-hannawald-eine-nacht-veraenderte-sein-leben-6099016.html |access-date=2024-06-28 |website=www.tz.de |last=Geier |first=Armin |language=de}}
To finance his drug addiction, which Hannawald believes was a consequence of the car accident, he robbed a bank and a post office in 1998. He was sentenced to five years in prison and was granted an early release in August 2000 for good behaviour. During his time in prison, he wrote his autobiographical book Life is not a film.{{Cite web |date=2014-03-13 |title=Richter geht von verminderter Schuldfähigkeit des Angeklagten aus: Hannawald zu fünf Jahren Haft verurteilt {{!}} Archiv-Berliner Zeitung |url=http://www.berliner-zeitung.de/archiv/richter-geht-von-verminderter-schuldfaehigkeit-des-angeklagten-aus-hannawald-zu-fuenf-jahren-haft-verurteilt,10810590,9461018.html |access-date=2024-06-28 |archive-date=2014-03-13 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140313075723/http://www.berliner-zeitung.de/archiv/richter-geht-von-verminderter-schuldfaehigkeit-des-angeklagten-aus-hannawald-zu-fuenf-jahren-haft-verurteilt,10810590,9461018.html |url-status=dead }}{{Cite web |last=AZ |date=2021-03-22 |title=Ernst Hannawald über Unfall und Drogen: Seine Frau hat ihm das Leben gerettet |url=https://www.abendzeitung-muenchen.de/promis/ernst-hannawald-unfall-drogen-freundin-ehefrau-art-714891 |access-date=2024-06-29 |website=www.abendzeitung-muenchen.de |language=de}}{{Cite web |title=Portrait im BR Fernsehen: "Lebenslinien" mit Ernst Hannawald |url=https://www.nordbayern.de/franken/roth/portrait-im-br-fernsehen-lebenslinien-mit-ernst-hannawald-1.10933838 |access-date=2024-06-29 |website=www.nordbayern.de |last=Leykamm |first=Jürgen}} In the early 2000s he resumed his acting career.
