| DESTlNY This beautiful Gothic fantasy was inspired by a childhood dream of its writer/director Fritz Lang, who first gained worId recognition with the films triumph. In a middIe-European viIlage a century or more ago, Death (Berhhard Goetzke) takes a young man (Walter Janssen) just before he is to be married. His lover (LiI Dagover) seeks out the Death figure in a room filIed with thousands of burning candles, each representing a human life. Filled with pity for her, he promises to return the young man if she can save even one of three lives about to flicker out. OtherworIdly atmosphere is created by extraordinary, bizarre sets, Gothic lighting and eccentric characters combined with spectacle and camera trickery astonishing for its time. With its many magical and haunting images, Destiny stilI possesses real power to impress the imagination. Said another great director, Luis BunueI, Fritz Langs Destiny opened my eyes to the poetic expressiveness of the cinema. lts worId success established the omnibus form as a method for presenting short horror tales and influenced fiIms as diverse as Waxworks, The Thief of Bagdad, Dead of Night and TaIes from the Crypt. A NOTE ON THIS EDITION: This edition of DESTlNY is digitaIly mastered from a 35mm fine grain master print of the French reissue version, Les Trois Lumieres. New English titles, including many absent from previous American versions of the film, are transIated from the originaI German censor records and composed in type faces approximating those in the prints of 1921. The images are in coIor tints authentic to German fiIms of the same year. A new orchestral score recorded in digitaI stereo by the Mont AIto Motion Picture Orchestra uses authentic fiIm music arrangements of the period and German traditional tunes as indicated by the action on screen. Year: 1921 Length: 99 minutes Director: Fritz Lang Screenplay by: Fritz Lang and Thea von Harbou Starring: Lil Dagover, WaIter Janssen, Berhhard Goetzke |
