Asphalt, 1929
Starring Gustav Frohlich, directed by Joe May, this movie is extremely hard to find - it is technically out of print, though I did find a copy floating around at one of the independant film stores here on ye olde internete. I highly recommend this movie, especially if you want to see Gustav seduced... come on, you all do! |

The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, 1919.
Starring Conrad Veidt. Very different than I was expecting. Filmed in a surrealistic setting where there are no right angles and everything looks to be made out of cardboard (but not in a bad way), it made the movie really fun to watch. When it was released in 1920, there was some dispute over whether non-artists would appreciate or like the film because of it's odd styling. Complete with a surprise ending, this is nothing like you think it will be. The music on the DVD is so good that I like to run it through my stereo and turn the TV off. |

Diary of a Lost Girl, 1928.
This movie is absolutely touching. Originally in German, starring Louise Brooks, it follows the star through her unnecessary hardships. It's absolutely beautiful, and the score that Image put with it is very well thought out. |

Metropolis, 1926.
Starring Gustav Frohlich, Brigitte Helm. Directed by Fritz Lang. My copy of Metropolis leaves much to be desired, however what is there I love, and what isn't there I can't wait to see. After many, many years (roughly 75 years) this film has finally been pieced back together - at least as well as can be expected. At its premier, the film was reported to have run for 17 reels, then was promptly cut to 10 ... most of the extracted footage is lost forever. But leave it to Kino on Video to try to make us happy by finding lost scenes and filling in the holes with parts of the novel. Kino, we love you. |
