"Faust"
1926
Directed by F.W. Murnau
Murnau's last German
production before going to Hollywood is a lavish one, inspired by Romantic painters like
Caspar David Friedrich. Gosta Ekman is the elderly professor who sells his soul to the
devil, Emil Jannings plays Mephistopholes and Camilla Horn is Marguerite. This version is
mastered from the best available 35mm archive materials. Music track by
Timothy Brock, performed by the Olympia Chamber Orchestra. Silent with
English intertitles. Includes UFA Studios 1925: The Making of
Faust (photo essay) and a 1500-word essay by scholar Jan Christopher
Horak illustrated with original color poster art.
117 minutes. |
