Incidents Air France DC-6 Templehof 1957

My Doctor was 17 at the time and asked me if I could find and records of this incident.
Air France 2nd attempt at Templehof in IMC resulted in a under run breaking off the gear. No one was hurt.
Some German actress Bibi something or other was a passenger.
I would like to locate the accident report or a newspaper article.
Thanks

Air France did not have DC-6s, so it was probably a DC-4.

DC-4 in Tempelhof

Chronik: Berlin am 2. Dezember, Fakten Jahr fr Jahr

At least I could verify that such an incident happened, and that the type was DC-4. How to drill deeper, I do not know yet, but I'll think about it.
