Expressionism. Early special effects, amazing. (Tsk tsk, if this is a romantic relationship, the abuser is Mephistopheles...Wilde, Sherlock) The scene where Faust rode an elephant with his treasure and swaggered around to grab a bride seems to be borrowed from Disney? (Aladdin's...

The soundtrack is really wonderful, giving the whole film a tragic and epic feel. There are several moving mirrors that show the aura of Murnau. At the end, when Faust and his lover burned to death, he was very...

11.1 Why did Murnau make Faust a romance? But when it was changed to a romance film, after the sister's brother and mother died, the male protagonist ran away? And let the girl give birth to a child alone? What rubbish man? A little older, you can see the injustice of the game of good and evil to ordinary people. The positive side allows the evil side to test human beings, but the evil side is a try hard, ordinary people are killed and injured countless times, the positive side makes no...

God and the devil bet on Faust's soul, the devil thinks that Faust cannot resist the temptation of desire, and God believes that the most wonderful thing in the world is that human beings have the freedom to choose good and evil, no matter how fallen, in the human soul. The sacredness of things cannot be eradicated. What this sanctity manifests in Faust is "One Word", "One Word that reverberates all over the world, one word with grief and sorrow, one word that dissolves all human sins, one word...

8.5/10. ①As written in the introduction: The story of the old scholar Faust who was tempted by desire and sold his soul to the devil (to become young, to have sex with countless women, etc.), one of the main lines is that he fell in love with a young girl and the girl was After the witch hunt he died with her. ②Extremely high level of expressionist photography (serving the road / setting [non-real scene] / special effects and models / shadows / light and shadow / composition); various subtitle...

It is an example of expressionism. The special effects are really grand and beautiful. At the beginning, the stage is pulled up between the sky and the ground, and the momentum is very spectacular. The scene where Mephisto's huge body in a cape presses against the town is quite shocking... Every scene in the whole film is filled and in motion. Expand gradually in the movement rhythm. The plot was simplified until it became an almost pure emotional story, a bit flimsy but still touching. In...

The classic of Murnau...

"Everything in heaven and on earth is wonderful, but the most wonderful thing is that people have the freedom to choose good and evil." The soundtrack is great. Expressionism ah-v- Murnau's religious complex is quite heavy. And then finally back to "love": love conquers...

A classic, with a little slack in the middle. The background symphony that comes after it fits...

Even looking at it now, it's better than any religious film that has been crowned great. Muona is really a god. . . ps: It is really tiring to adjust the subtitle timeline while...
