Thanks for your thoughtful comment. It's a matter of great shame that I haven't actually seen The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari... one day.

Enjoy... I've also included the German version (für alle Fälle)
Thanks :)
NP... I've done studies about how the liberal social policies of Weimar led to cultural decay... Hitler was the backlash. Also how the early cinematographers such as Murnau, Lang, et.al. influenced the later propaganda filmmakers like Riefenstahl. Murnau's use of light and shadow, particularly in Nosferatu was masterful. the technique was used brilliantly later to paint Jews and other "undesirables" in a negative light.
Fascinating!
