Shortly after that 1927 release, an entire quarter of Lang's original version was cut by Paramount for the US release, and by Ufa in Germany, an act of butchery very much against the director's wishes. The excised footage was believed lost, irretrievably so - that is, until one of the most remarkable finds in all of cinema history, as several dusty reels were discovered in a small museum in Buenos Aires, Argentina in 2008. Since then, an expert team of film archivists has been working at the Friedrich-Wilhelm-Murnau Stiftung in Germany to painstakingly reconstruct and restore Lang's film. The Masters of Cinema Series is proud to present the spectacular results - as premiered at the prestigious Berlinale in early 2010 and subsequently seen at cinemas throughout the UK & Ireland. | Film: | | DVD: | | Verfasse eine Kurzkritik | | |
