As fate would have it, her life's odyssey was punctuated by a series of pivotal events that ultimately culminated in her decision to embark upon a career in the captivating world of acting.

The remarkable journey of Mollinger commenced with her appointment as a secretary at a film office, a position that would ultimately prove to be a catalyst for her future success.

As Mollinger's acting career continued to unfold, she found herself taking on an array of notable film roles, with notable mentions going to her appearances in 'Rubber' and 'De Man Zonder Hart', before embarking on a bold and unconventional decision to leave her native homeland and relocate to the distant shores of England, a move that would ultimately prove to be a turning point in her professional journey.

It was in this new and unfamiliar environment that Mollinger secured a supporting role in the critically acclaimed film 'Vessel of Wrath', a cinematic masterpiece that boasted an impressive cast, including the esteemed and renowned actor Charles Laughton, in the year 1938.
