It's sophisticated medley of genres was in fact what inspired Universal's Carl Laemmle to invite Leni to come to Hollywood, as Laemmle was hoping to capitalize on the emerging comedy-horror craze of the 1920s. Stylistically, Waxworks was celebrated as a late example of German Expressionism. It's stylized sets (designed by Leni), fantastical costumes, chiaroscuro lighting, and startlingly bold performances are characteristic of that cinematic movement and contribute to the film's lasting appeal.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe three episodes of Waxworks are united by the character of a young poet (William Dieterle), who is hired by the owner of a wax museum to create backstories for a trio of the museum's figures: Caliph Haroun-al-Raschid (Emil Jannings), Ivan the Terrible (Conrad Veidt), and Jack the Ripper (Werner Krauss). The stories with leading actors of Weimar cinema are depicted successively, the poet casting himself together with the daughter of the wax museum's owner at the center of each tale.

Jean and Pierre disguise themselves as women to audition, ultimately landing the job and joining the group as they travel, rehearse, and perform together, facing unexpected twists and turns along the way. A direct inspiration for Billy Wilder's 1959 American sensation, Some Like It Hot, Fanfare d'amour is a cinematic treat of romantic comedy, musical numbers, and a first-rate cast. The film was restored in 4K from the original 35mm nitrate fine grain and a vintage 35mm print.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eMauvaise Graine centers around Henri Pasquier (Pierre Mingand), a rich playboy who enjoys careening around Paris in his shiny Buick. When his father forces him to sell the car, Henri suffers a class-related existential crisis, and falls in with a local car theft gang in an attempt to get his Buick back. In doing so he not only learns about the underbelly of working for a living, but also falls for the sweetly seductive Jeannette (screen legend Danielle Darrieux, here only 17 years old). Billy Wilder made his directorial debut with Mauvaise Graine during a brief stay in Paris, sandwiched between his escaping the rise of Nazism in 1933 Berlin and heading to the United States via Mexico. The film is remarkable for it's use of on-location exteriors, from the streets of Paris to the port of Marseille, and Wilder's creative use of mounting cameras to cars creates a visceral aesthetic that foreshadowed French New Wave films like Breathless by about 25 years. This restoration of Mauvaise Graine is based on a 16mm safety dupe negative made from rare, original printing materials from the Blackhawk Films collection, that have been scanned in HD for this edition.\u003c\/span\u003e","brand":"Clearance","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42178003861548,"sku":"617311600593","price":17.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0359\/2201\/8348\/files\/french-revelations-fanfare-damour-fanfare-of-love-mauvaise-grain-bad-seed-new-blu-ray.jpg?v=1785760568"},{"product_id":"the-beast-must-die-aka-la-bestia-debe-morir-w-booklet-used","title":"The Beast Must Die AKA La Bestia Debe Morir W\/BOOKLET USED","description":"\u003cp class=\"a-spacing-base\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eMystery writer Felix Lane, (legendary Spanish actor Narciso Ibáñez Menta), suffers a tragic loss; his nine-year-old son is killed in a hit-and-run car accident.

Narrated by illustrious American stage, film, and television actor, Leif Erickson, the film, which captures with evocative camerawork and ominous clarity the lead-up to the Nazi occupation of Czechoslovakia, was shot at great personal risk to Kline and his crew members. Kline, a Jew born in Chicago and raised in Iowa, was in his late 20s when he began filming in the Sudeten region bordering Germany, and took on the hair-raising task of not only passing as a Nazi sympathizer in order to complete the project, but also smuggling the footage out of the Prague airport past Gestapo guards.

Thanks to the diligent efforts of the Film Noir Foundation, a stunning restoration of the film was created by UCLA Film \u0026amp; Television Archive, now presented in it's first-ever home video release - with special thanks to Fernando Martín Peña and Argentina Sono Film.Argentine beauty Olga Zubarry stars as a cabaret performer trying to protect her young daughter (Gogó) from a mysterious murderer while parrying the advances of the prosecutor (Roberto Escalada) pursuing the killer. Nathán Pinzón, who also appeared in Viñoly Barreto's The Beast Must Die (La bestia debe morir) a year earlier, gives an impressive against-type performance as the disturbed pedophile hiding in plain sight.This variation on Fritz Lang's classic is a proto-feminist reimagining of the tale, focusing on the lives of female characters ignored in the earlier iterations. The film's brooding cinematography (by Aníbal González Paz) enhances Olga Zubarry's exceptional performance, which won her the Argentine Film Critics Association award for Best Actress. El vampiro negro (The Black Vampire) is a significant rediscovery in cinema history, and, thanks to the dedication of the Film Noir Foundation and it's partners at UCLA Film \u0026amp; Television Archive, it is now available in a beautiful Blu-ray\/DVD dual-format edition packed with special features.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"detailBullets_feature_div\" class=\"celwidget\" data-feature-name=\"detailBullets_feature_v2\" data-csa-c-type=\"widget\" data-csa-c-content-id=\"detailBullets_feature_v2\" data-csa-c-slot-id=\"detailBullets_feature_div\" data-csa-c-asin=\"\" data-csa-c-is-in-initial-active-row=\"false\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"detailBulletsWrapper_feature_div\" data-feature-name=\"detailBullets\" data-template-name=\"detailBullets\" class=\"a-section feature detail-bullets-wrapper bucket\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Orbit DVD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43746264547372,"sku":"617311688195U","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0359\/2201\/8348\/files\/el-vampiro-negro-the-black-vampire-used-used-blu-ray.webp?v=1788338526"},{"product_id":"woman-on-the-run-flicker-alley-used","title":"Woman on the Run (Flicker Alley) USED","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThanks to the efforts of the Film Noir Foundation, this terrific film noir, the only American print of which was burned in a 2008 fire, has been rescued and restored to its original lustre!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis nervy, shot-on-location thriller featuring a stunning performance from Ann Sheridan (Angels with Dirty Faces, They Drive by Night), showcases one of the finest cinematic depictions of mid-20th century San Francisco.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAfter witnessing a gangland execution Frank goes into hiding, while his wife, Eleanor (Sheridan), and the cops go on a wild chase around San Francisco before Frank is silenced by the mob.

Whether wreaking accidental havoc as a two-man band, doing battle against one another as millionaire and butler, or even becoming grave robbers for a mad scientist, Laurel and Hardy prove in their second year that they have what it takes to not only win over audiences in the twilight of the silent era, but generate enough momentum to make a successful transition to “talkies” in 1929.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAlthough their names are synonymous with the very idea of comedy, few of the original negatives for Laurel and Hardy’s early silent work survive, elements only available from scattered sources throughout the world, often in substantially less than pristine shape.
