Against the Storm: Herbert Kline in a Darkened Europe - Blu-ray Unboxing

Flicker Alley is proud to present a pair of new restorations of decisive and timely documentaries by filmmaker Herbert Kline from the collection of The Museum of Modern Art. Crisis: A Film of “The Nazi Way” and Lights Out in Europe, both previously unavailable, now beautifully restored by MoMA, will be available in a brand-new Blu-ray Disc edition, with generous underwriting and funding from Sunrise Foundation for Education and the Arts. The National Center for Jewish Film served as fiscal sponsor.
Herbert Kline made his breakthrough documentary Crisis: A Film of “The Nazi Way” as the storm clouds of impending war gathered over Europe in 1938. Narrated by illustrious American stage, film, and television actor, Leif Erickson, the film, which captures with evocative camerawork and ominous clarity the lead-up to the Nazi occupation of Czechoslovakia, was shot at great personal risk to Kline and his crew members. Kline, a Jew born in Chicago and raised in Iowa, was in his late 20s when he began filming in the Sudeten region bordering Germany, and took on the hair-raising task of not only passing as a Nazi sympathizer in order to complete the project, but also smuggling the footage out of the Prague airport past Gestapo guards. The result is one of the first anti-Hitler documentaries ever made, and a fascinating historical and cinematic document.
In 1940, one year after filming the invasion of Czechoslovakia by Hitler’s forces, Herbert Kline and his team traveled to Warsaw and England to pursue and document the feared Nazi invasion of Poland. Narrated by Academy Award winning actor, Fredric March, the surviving recordings of these life threatening events would serve as evidence of the outbreak of the Second World War, bringing about one of the first completed and distributed documentaries on one of the most destructive international conflicts in history; Lights Out in Europe.
Bonus Materials Include:
• Audio Commentary for Crisis: A Film of “The Nazi Way” - by cultural historian Thomas Doherty
• Audio Commentary for Lights Out in Europe - by film historian Maria Elena de las Carreras
• Peace! The Four Power Conference (1938) - A Pathé Gazette newsreel profiling the delegates at the Four-Power conference in Munich, and Neville Chamberlain's return with Hitler's signature and hope of peace
• The White Eagle (1942) - Directed by Eugeniusz Cekalski, this Academy Award-nominated documentary short narrated by Leslie Howard shows the exiled Polish community in Britain, retaining their distinct political and cultural identity while continuing alongside the British military struggle against Germany
• Image Gallery - Archival images and promotional materials from the Museum of Modern Art and Syracuse University Special Collections Research Center
• Souvenir Booklet - A new essay detailing the films’ production and distribution by cultural historian Thomas Doherty; Conservation notes by MoMA Department of Film Curator, Dave Kehr.
• Optional English subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing
• Blu-ray Authoring by David Mackenzie of Fidelity In Motion
• All Region Encoding (A,B,C)

    AGAIN, Stan chose this Crossley English actor to team with him in this movie; the script required him to have a partner, but the Crossley guy failed to show up so Hardy replaced him; this is an accidental pairing … 😮

    1992 "A Small Victory" Faith No More MV directed by Marcus Nispel. Argentina's public debt grew enormously during the 1990s without showing that it could service the debt. The IMF kept lending money to Argentina and extending its payment schedules. Massive tax evasion and money laundering contributed to the movement of funds toward offshore banks.

    • @GR8FLMD3AD
      @GR8FLMD3AD 25 днів тому

      "Silent" refers to the film's lack of a dialogue soundtrack. Silent films were accompanied by live music and this set is mimicking that experience.

    A good one indeed, but again not that "lost masterpiece" a few sites are claiming (that German one "Der Film Noir" give it 5/5, for example). The problem starts with the fact that it is a 2-fer. Two movies in one and that at convenient 84 minutes (I like "short" ones that go to the point: a good 90 minutes thrill ride is always a pleasure). But you can´t fully develop the potential of a story in just 40 minutes. The first one starts really really well and both have lotta atmospehere, great cinematography, also the score and the acting is pretty up there (IMHO), but the first one lacks a bit, because I´d REALLY wanna know what the sisters troubles were. So the fact that - SPOILER - he shot the wrong guy and it´s never explained why and so on makes this look a bit like a "cheap twist". Would this not be a short (also the Woolrich story that´s the source), the story could well go on and the brother could find out what is behing all what´s been done to his sis. I give this 6/10. The second one is better: a possessive mom considers her hubby to be rather/better dead than "not hers" (a look into the past) and also has those very same feelings about her no-good son, who makes a short stop at her house to recover from a not-gone-well robbery. Same production values, but a more satisfying ending. I rate this 7/10. It was well worth recovering them from oblivion and I am glad I saw them. But I would not put them up there with the best. Far from. Certainly above average and well made, but no masterpieces. I´d give it, the movie, on a scale of 0 to 5, a 3 /1/2.

    0:40 is from Two Tars. For some reason, every print I have ever seen of it always looks like 16mm, soft and generations removed from the camera negative. The Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences has a 35mm fine grain master positive in it's holdings. I wonder if their print is superior to what we have all seen thus far.

    I was a kid when I saw this first Cinerama film in 1955 at the Paris Empire Cinerama theater. I remember it as if it was yesterday, I was grabbing my seat during this first roller-coaster sequence ! Later, I have seen all of the real Cinerama films, but the Brothers Grimm one. I don't consider 70mm films as real Cinerama films, the shooting angle isn't wide enough to provide the Cinerama effect. I have also seen two Kinopanarama films, the USSR copy of Cinerama.
