Tartuffe (1925)

Herr Tartüff


Watch the Movie!



The film starred Emil Jannings as Tartuffe, Lil Dagover as Elmire and Werner Krauss as Orgon. Although retaining the basic plot, Murnau and Mayer pared down Molière's play, eliminating most of the secondary characters and concentrating on the triangle of Orgon, Elmire and Tartuffe. They also introduced a framing device, whereby the story of Tartuffe becomes a film-within-a-film, shown by a young actor as a device to warn his grandfather about his unctuous but evil housekeepe.

In the World of the Stars (1925)

Wunder der Schöpfung


Watch the Movie!



"Wunder Der Schöpfung" is a very remarkable cultural silent film ( another "Edition Filmmuseum" great restoration with beautiful tinted sequences ) that enlightens and educates the spectator about time and space, the mystery of the universe, the Earth's creation and its future destruction ( a typical German touch this, certainly… ), the planets and the stars; everything done in a detailed scientific way but at the same time very entertaining ( the most fictional part within the film are the Bible quotes and its inaccuracies ). As some longhaired youngster said sometime ago, "Wunder Der Schöpfung" is certainly a wonderful space oddity.
