Two by Fritz Lang (Kino Lorber, NR)
They’re both silent, black-and-white films, but beyond those similarities, they are quite different from each other.
Kino Lorber
Road House | (Kino Lorber, NR)
There’s certainly room for more than one Road House in anyone’s cinematic universe.
The Enemy Below (Kino Lorber, NR)
The Enemy Below is not a great film, but it’s enjoyable enough if you like war movies.
Where’s Poppa? (Kino Lorber, NR)
The central conflict might sound more like the material for a tragedy, but Carl Reiner’s 1970 film is definitely a comedy, albeit one that cuts very close to the bone.
Gold (Kino Lorbor, NR)
It has more in common with the films put out before the Third Reich and makes a serious effort to entangle itself with Metropolis specifically.
Hidden Fear (Kino Lorber, NR)
The plot of Hidden Fear is a bit involved, which also places it square within the conventions of film noir.
99 River Street (Kino Lorber, NR)
The action in 99 River Street takes place over a single night, giving the film a propulsive quality.
Fantômas (Kino Lorber, NR)
Fantômas (Kino Lorber, NR) In the world of Fantômas, things happen the way they do because that makes for an exciting film to watch, end of story.
Pitfall (Kino Lorber, NR)
The film ends with several loose ends dangling, but I like that de Toth leaves the final conclusion open.
Evil Eye/The Girl Who Knew Too Much (Kino Lorber, NR)
The Italian version, The Girl Who Knew Too Much, is by far the better film.
