People - Actor Joachim Król thinks a lot of the car

Actor Joachim Król says he generally likes long-distance train journeys, but he has a lot to gain from the car. "With a car, you can throw everything in and think about what you need later," the 66-year-old told the Neue Osnabrücker Zeitung newspaper (Wednesday). With trains, on the other hand, you have to be prepared, partly because they are no longer as reliable.

However, he sees a clear discrepancy between theory and reality when it comes to long-distance rail travel. "The idea of a train journey is good, of course: you get on in Cologne, pack your laptop, eat something delicious in the dining car and get off on time in Berlin," says Król. "In reality, unfortunately, you don't have the internet, you're late and the only hot drink in the dining car is beer."

By his own admission, he uses the 49-euro ticket designed for local transport. He has been taking the bus ever since the ticket was introduced. "Even if I probably don't make use of the ticket."

Król, who was born in the Ruhr town of Herne, played supporting roles in cinema hits such as "Der bewegte Mann" and "Lola rennt" in the 90s and later became known to a wider audience as a Frankfurt "Tatort" investigator.

This Thursday, "791 km" will be released in cinemas. In it, he can be seen alongside Iris Berben. It is about four travelers who actually wanted to take the train from Hamburg to Munich, but end up in a cab because of a storm. Król plays the initially taciturn cab driver who has to come to terms with the group of travelers.

Joachim Król, the actor from Osnabrück in North Rhine-Westphalia, expressed his preference for cars over trains for long-distance travels, stating that they offer more flexibility. Despite his love for trains, he often uses the 49-euro ticket designed for local transport and often takes the bus. Joachim Król, known for his supporting roles in movies like "Der bewegte Mann" and "Lola rennt," and later as a Frankfurt "Tatort" investigator, will be seen in the movie "791 km" released this Thursday, where he plays a taciturn cab driver. Traffic in Osnabrück, like in many German cities, can be challenging, as mentioned in a recent article in the new Osnabrücker newspaper.

In the movie "791 km," Joachim Król's character ends up driving a cab with four travelers due to a storm, instead of taking the train from Hamburg to Munich as initially planned. His character, initially taciturn, must come to terms with the group of travelers, creating an interesting dynamic in the film. The new Osnabrücker newspaper also covers traffic-related issues in the city, providing advice and updates to its readers.
