Whoa, ive never seen this version. I at once recognized that it was being very accurate translation from the book. Very creepy vibe in this one for sure.

"(...) and that is why Jewish Hollywood understandingly hates German mythology (...)" To interpret the movies from a 'politically correct' moral high ground - gained from post-war Transatlantic literary critics - will grasp little of it's actual cultural background (e.g. 'Arts and Craft', 'Youth Movement') or the 'progressive' tilt, Lang may have given the medieval and Romantic material (e.g. dramatizing *the tragic fate of blind 'Nibelung Loyality'* - a topos that would be naively engraved in the 'Hitler Youth' and 'Schutzstaffel' ceremonial daggers). In the end the movies tell a tale of the Burgundians - *_Romanized Germanic speaking peoples_* - turning _perfidious_ by Western learning and craft - foreshadowing operating 'concentration camps' with American punch cards along a rational ideology of natural selection.

What a lovely tribute to two wonderful, charismatic and intelligent actors! I also love "Dimitrios" and "Three Strangers". As a tiny difference of opinion, I don't feel that Johnny West is conventional in any real sense as a romantic lead or a hero: he's an alcoholic dreamer, led into a terrible situation, needing protection he's lucky enough to get. He's philosophical; good but rather weak; clear-sighted but unable to take real action. While it would have been fascinating to see what an actor like Errol Flynn (undervalued as a dramatic actor), I'm so glad the role went to Lorre, so that we could see both what he could bring to the character and what the character could feed to him.

@vintagesoup795 ай бұрын
Thanks for the comment. yeah, I was appalling with sources and am still a disorganised mess which is why I haven't made as many of the videos lately. three books I used were "The Secret Life of Ealing Studios" by Robert Sellers, "Devils Advocates Dead of Night" by Jez Conolly & David Owain Bates and "Forever Ealing" by George Perry. Yes, I have watched Remembering Dead of Night and used some of that as well. I was too disorganised to continue making videos though I hope to remedy that soon.

@@vintagesoup79 Thank you for listing the sources! I'll definitely have to explore them, Ealing is such a mythical studio, and is unfortunately quite underrated and overlooked in film history, it's such a shame!

My favourite movie of all time Dr Mabuse is my hero Nobody answers a phone like him It has car chases, gunfights, gambling, seances, stock market manipulation, murders, suicides, kidnapping,every time I watch it I see something new For instance in the robbery on the train if you look you can see the briefcase is actually thrown from the train and bounces down the embankment. Extra credit for calling the 1911 automatic pistol a revolver, the British used to call any handgun a revolver, vacuum cleaner Hoover situation, but this is not often seen now
