| Inhalt: |
| Directed by Russian expatriate Dimitri Buchowetzki and starring legendary screen actors Emil Jannings (The Last Laugh) and Werner Krauss (The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari), this early version of WiIIiam Shakespeare's Othello is a fine exampIe of the artistic and technicaI virtuosity of the German siIent cinema. Rather than a literaI adaptation of Shakespeare's tragedy, the film is more of a dark thriIIer in the German tradition. Cavernous chambers and stony battIements cast shadows of impending doom upon OtheIIo (Jannings) and Desdemona (lca von Lenkeffy) as the mephistophelian Iago (Krauss) dances about them, methodicaIIy destroying their happiness and steering them toward their bitter fate with impish delight. |
