Met director Fritz Lang's film, the application of montage techniques, long takes and other techniques in the first half is impressive! The whistle renders a terrifying atmosphere, and the plot leads but does not unfold, and the multi-line development creates a suspenseful atmosphere. In the transition period from silent films to sound films, the acting skills of the actors are also superb. Finally, a trial scene of the tyranny of the majority is shown, whose ideological depth transcends time! Regarding judicial trials of mentally ill patients, whether they should be sent to a mental hospital or punished for criminal responsibility is really tricky.

The first half is slow, and the second half is exciting. The script is chic and the M is symbolic. Social crimes cause everyone to be in danger, the police are incapable of stylized work, and the underworld organizations carry out methods and actions. If the two tracks pursue M separately at the same time, they will inevitably be caught. Triad Court: How do evil organizations judge evil? Suppress evil or cure evil? Inciting speeches make gangsters conspire, and although they are potentially both guilty sinners, they participate in the social movement to eliminate M. (John 8 - Sin and Punishment)

A 1931 movie looks great even now, and then it's time to check out another masterpiece by Fritz Lang, Metropolis. The serious lack of judicial power is the soil for the birth of private relief. Although it alludes to the social state and operation mechanism of the Weimar Republic at that time, it seems to be applicable to the current society.

Franz, the burglar: [Franz is being tricked into thinking he killed the night watchman, and is going to jail for it] Please, Herr Kommissar! I'll tell you everything; even who we were looking for in that damned building.
Inspector Groeber: Really. Who?
Franz, the burglar: The child murderer, Herr Kommissar!
