Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.
I was totally surprised at how great this film.You could feel your paranoia rise as the film went on and as you gradually learned the details of the real situation.
if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.
The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
While the world's intellectuals were delighting in THE LAST LAUGH and WAX WORKS the German public, we are told, were more interested in the comedies of Ossi Oswalda. With this as the only accessible example, I can see their point.Miss O and the genial Willy Fritsch do the one about the top hat guy and the follies girl, with undeniable charm, and the producers spent money on this one. It's the cameraman of METROPOLIS and the sinister streets aren't always at ease with the would be frothy material but there's a train finale in snow country. This also has some of the earliest back projection I know.Name players of the day show up - Lillian Hall Davis, Jenny Jugo and Lang regular Georg John, as the wedding clerk.I'd cheerfully watch a few more of these if he archives would get off their buts and circulate them.
