    The shots are amazing, and the whole film has heavy silent film traces. Populism VS public power, citizens' voluntary organizations try to preempt the police's search, and the trial in the basement and the trial on behalf of the authority bring two completely different results. The confrontation between the two forces has surpassed the meaning of capturing M itself. Whether there is an absolutely correct trial result, the movie leaves blank, and for mothers who have lost their children, all...

    German film master Fritz Lang created an amazing audio-visual language in his first sound film. The most famous shadow before the poster is just the simplest, the sound and picture are separated, the whistle, the actors perform with big eyes, and the secrets of the underworld The execution and other dramatic and cinematic sense reached the strongest of that...

    A 1931 movie looks great even now, and then it's time to check out another masterpiece by Fritz Lang, Metropolis. The serious lack of judicial power is the soil for the birth of private relief. Although it alludes to the social state and operation mechanism of the Weimar Republic at that time, it seems to be applicable to the current...

    I barely finished the film under my drowsiness, and I remembered the beginning and the back of the movie with the white M letter painted on the black jacket. The film influenced films like Psycho, but it more reminded me of Zodiac, From Hell and things like that. I rewatched it again, and still felt that the plot was moving too...

    It was boring until the People's Great Trial. But this strong gap has had unexpected effects. You always thought that the story would be so boring, and the conversation changed, and a headache was raised. Is it rational or emotional for mentally ill people not to be responsible for their actions? The lens language can be called a pioneer model. For example, the most classic M has just appeared, but it can't be...

    I am dissatisfied at the end and think that Mr. M should be burned to death and not because he is a lunatic can kill innocent people!! If the fascist Hitler is also sick and goes crazy for a while, he can also write off the killing of Jews and innocent people because he is sick. It's fair, blood debts, blood and bad deeds should be...

    Lang's first sound film. The elements of pedophilia and psychopaths are very avant-garde, M's whistle is classic, and Peter Lowe's interpretation of M is very expressive. Finally, there is a discussion of lynching. Although all the atrocities are pushed off-camera and only suggestive, a "don't forget that this person is morbidly hypersexual" is enough to wake up the ignorant audience. Lang believes that his film is to show social nuisance, and he does it through this...

    Has textbook-like status. Superb technology. The protagonist's performance is perfect. At the same time, the last paragraph of the People's Trial conducted an in-depth discussion of human rights and laws, and it still has a strong therapeutic effect on the current domestic...

    Lang's first film has sound, although it seems that the sound level is very low today, the scenes without lines are basically silent, the sound effects and ambient sounds are very few, especially the large section of the police raid is so quiet that there is no footsteps, it seems that people are deaf. But there are many parts of using voice to narrate, which can be said to be the super-efficient use of voice, from whistle (Grieg's "In the Hall of Mountain King", trolls chasing children, even...

    Double Line Structure and Duel

    In fact, the overall situation is first expressed in a specific and individualized time and space: a house in a city, a terrace and a kitchen in an apartment building, the journey from the apartment to the school, the posters on the wall, the excitement of people.. ....

    But soon in this environment...

    a monument

    It is unimaginable that this is a 1931 film. The director is between World War I and World War II. This is his first sound film, and it just uses the key plot of blind people identifying the murderer by sound, hehe. In fact, what is even more amazing about this movie is its narrative technique and...

M quotes

  • Prostitute: Let me go, you dirty bastard! Let me go, you son of a bitch! Goddamn bastard! Put me down! Let me go!

  • Bartender: You're ruining my business, Sarge. These raids every night. No one can get a moment's peace! They're human beings, too.

    Police Sargeant: You think we stay up all night just for the hell of it?

    Bartender: No. But you're drivin' away my clientele and you won't find the guy you're lookin' for here anyway! If you know how angry they are at the guy who's causing these raids every night. Especially the hookers. Sure, they solicit. Business is business. But believe me, in every one of them beats a mother's heart! I know a lot of tough guys who get all teary eyed just seein' the little ones at play. If they ever get their hands on that monster, they'll make toothpicks out of him!
