    It embodies a way in which the movement of expansion and contraction in "pictorial space" is configured between characters and objects, and at the same time presents real rationales about good and evil, God and Satan in the film space. The intertextual relationship between the Ke-style "tapestry-style frame" and its open "mental image" is to be understood in the later reading. The book "Motion-Image" is really... very...

    The 1926 work, with strong expressionism, extremely powerful imagination, and the props, lighting, and scenery used to perfectly restore the imagination, is very...

    #GermanmastersExhibitionThe interesting thing about expressionism is that "over" is just right. This version of the devil is also very...

    Just as Clinton Eastwood's frowning method makes his face look like the ravines of a macaroni western, so Emil Jannings's brow raising method makes him look like he is always performing for the curved surface of German Expressionism, at least In the hands of Mu...

    Every picture is very interesting, the previous art was too powerful. The special effects have a kind of serious stupidity. Although they can be seen at a glance, they always give people a shock. "It can still be like this! It's actually very...

    Murnau's processing of superimposed light and shadow has laid a solid foundation for shooting sunrises in Hollywood in the future! This should not be called Faust, it should be called Faust and Mephistopheles. Faust can only be said to be half the protagonist. The obsession with youth is probably the weakness of all men! Emile Jannings' Mephistopheles is too eye-catching and too free, especially the part of flirting with the old woman, which is simply a walk between funny indifference, funny...

    1. Faust turned out to be pitted by ghostwriting. . . 2. An expressionist spectacle under the traditional concept and structure of drama, a drama written by geniuses with images 3. Will the Japanese be accused of copying Faust in "Black Butler"? ~~~4. I can finally say a word to Truffaut, buddy, I have seen Murnau too. 5. Looking forward to "The Lowest Man". ....

    I watched it in German culture class... Maybe I'm not used to the exaggerated performances of silent films, I think it's a bit thunderous, but the soundtrack is very good and can stimulate emotions... Finally, the angel said to the devil that I can destroy the contract with just one word BLABLABLABLA... That's "Liebe" love...Is there any thunderstorm... Maybe Hollywood's sensational model is learned from here...Anyway, it's a tribute, a classic that has been for 90...
