  • Physical reality warps and bends to fit the twisted psychological states on display in the cinema of the German expressionist movement of the 1920s. This selection of some of the movement’s key works includes the quintessential example of the style, the delirious nightmare THE CABINET OF DR. CALIGARI; F. W. Murnau’s shivery vampire classic NOSFERATU; and several masterpieces by Fritz Lang, who, following the success of works like METROPOLIS and M, would go on to become instrumental in importing expressionist aesthetics to the Hollywood of the 1930s and ’40s.

      The last and practically complete restoration of Metropolis is already available on Blu-ray, but Kino films hold the licence and last time I looked it was grotesquely overpriced.

    I was JUST looking for a good restoration of _Der Golem, wie er in die Welt kam_ - how did you guys read my mind?? And by coincidence, I’d just borrowed _Nosferatu_ and _Metropolis_ from my local public library right before they abruptly closed their doors for a month, before I could really go nuts watching movies from and re-reading books about this era of German filmmaking, so you’ve really uncannily satisfied my itch just as I was feeling it. 🙂❤️🎥
    Bookmarking for immediate viewing, I sense a 3-day binge coming on! Thanks again!! 📚🍿👍🏼
    (As a side-note: although _Aelita_ - or _Аэли́та_ - is not German, but rather from the U.S.S.R., style-wise it does belong firmly in the expressionist camp, and influence-wise it’s DEFINITELY an epochal, genre-defining, and perhaps even genre-spawning, film… I’d love to see a really good restoration of it on your channel someday!)

      Being a relatively small company, they would likely not be able to afford to license all these titles for extended periods of time. I'd rather have a steady flow of new films than have a small selection available for years.

    Someone tell me, is this channel promoting forthcoming video releases under the banner of the similarly named company that has for years grabbed the licence for selected popular TV programs to release selectively? Or is this a TV station specialising in good films (like the one Adam Roche podcasts for?)
