Film Classroom: Modern 30s – M, The Vampire of Düsseldorf
Details
In the 2012 edition of the Las Palmas de Gran Canaria International Film Festival, the cycle "The Moderns" was programmed. It was an approach to avant-garde cinematographic art prior to the introduction of sound, conceived by our colleague Francisco Ponce. We now propose completing that milestone with nine films made between 1929 and 1934, selected by Luis Miranda, the festival’s director. M. THE VAMPIRE OF DUSSELDORF (M. Eine Stadt sucht einen Mörder) Germany, 1931, 111´ DIRECTOR: Fritz Lang SCREENPLAY: Thea von Harbou, Fritz Lang PRODUCTION: Seymour Nebenzal CINEMATOGRAPHY: Fritz Arno Wagner (By N) EDITING: Paul Falkenberg MUSIC: Edvard Grieg CAST: Peter Lorre, Ellen Widmann, Inge Landgut, Otto Wernicke, Theodor Loos, Gustaf Gründgens.
