German films in the Weimar era created a unique psychological and cultural structure whose influence has radiated to the present day. The film aesthetics represented by "Expressionism", in the more than ten years of Germany's transition from the Second Reich to the Third Reich, with its solid The film industry, and even became a direct source of film creativity in Hollywood's golden age, must have been unexpected.
In July, the German Masters Exhibition organized by the Shanghai...

Once again due to the lack of short reviews
I didn't look at the legend about Faust, all I know is that the Johnson who describes the Delta blues is that he made a deal with the devil at the crossroads - which should be just as fascinating as Orpheus' turn. But it is natural to think of Goethe's book, and the screenwriters and directors who want to come here are the refiners of the first book. (Looking back and looking at Faust’s small essay written at the beginning, I am really impressed~) The first one is Goethe’s lyric poem, and...

Mephistopheles has been portrayed as superb from the costumes to the performance, but Faust has been so weakened that it can be ignored. When the part with Gretchen was over, Faust turned into an angel, the word Liebe (love) appeared on the screen, and then by the end of the show, I was still a little sweaty.
"Mortals keep working hard, and we can save." Goethe said in a conversation with Ekman in 1831, and the secret of Faust's salvation lies in these few lines. "There is an energy... -

Faust's entanglement is not because of love but the multiple shadows of love
Thinking and seeking, the void chases away the spring breeze. The spring breeze is green, the mountains are south and the sea is north, and the youth travels. Juguang floating shadow is now drilling into the gap, life is like the reverse of travel. Going like the reverse, Nanke has no dreams, chasing Hongyi. Faust, Faust, what do you choose? Is it a mythical legend or the lifelong skill of Goethe, a religious doctrine or enlightenment technology, a god or a devil, the anxiety of old age or...

Judging from the content of the movie, this is not just a love movie. At the end of the movie, the girl with a baby in her arms and tears streaming down her face resembles the Virgin Mary, which implies that Faust is God. Faust is not a God in the sense we understand. He is old, incomprehensible, and cowardly. He is full of knowledge, but in the end he can only watch his people die from the plague. Made a deal with the devil. The devil satisfied his selfish desires, he became young and...

I am amazed at the level of movies in the 1920s. I don't know how to make the awesome special effects. Murnau is very good at using the camera, whether it is a sports lens or a flexible fixed position, it is worth...

Deducting one star for the end of that adaptation, Faust can die, but in the end, God told the devil that love is a bit hard to tell the story. Everything is fine up front, the arrangement of the story, the music. The best thing is the lighting of this movie. The scenes in the house can fully express the characters' characteristics by the...

The images of angels and demons are so spectacular, they fill the frame with perfect proportions and huge perspectives // indeed, Murnau's images are always amazing // naturally, silent films have to pay more attention to the soundtrack, the symphony is more shocking and spectacular, and the low-pitched horns foreshadow evil The soft harp of power reveals...

Erzengel: [Last lines] The word that rings joyfully throughout creation, the word that alleviates every pain and sorrow, the word that absolves all the guilt of humanity, the eternal word. Dost thou not know it?
Mephisto: What is the word?
Erzengel: Love
