| Description | Lotte Eisner’s The Haunted Screen is one of the most significant books on German cinema of the 1920s, particularly cinematic Expressionism. The author examines the films of Robert Wiene, Fritz Lang, Friedrich Wilhelm Murnau, Georg Wilhelm Pabst and other directors as reflections of the spiritual and social atmosphere of post-war Germany. Eisner shows how economic instability, fear of reality, a sense of guilt and a fascination with the fantastic found expression in unsettling compositions, the interplay of light and shadow, abstract sets and images of death. The book combines Eisner’s early film criticism with her later scholarly analysis and personal recollections of the period.
Lotte Eisner (1896–1983) was a German-French film critic and historian, and one of the first women to write professionally about cinema in Germany. She personally knew many of the directors and actors of the Weimar era and later became one of the founders of the Cinémathèque Française. Her work played a major role in establishing German Expressionism as a classic movement in world cinema. |
