I love all of Murnau’s films. He’s truly one of the top 10 greatest filmmakers of all time.
And in regards to this month’s Photo Play theme of Fairs and Festivals, all that I can say is… The Court Jester. :OD
Murnau was brilliant and FAUST is one of his best.
It’s not in the lineup this month, but THE COURT JESTER is slated for a future edition of Photo Play. :D
Sweet! Don’t ruin it! :OD
