A Stereotype Shatters,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Fritz Lang: Interviews (Conversations with Filmmakers) (Paperback)
This is a terrific entry in the U of Mississippi series of interviews with famous filmmakers.
The earliest interview comes from 1945, but the bulk of the interviews are from the Sixties and early Seventies, after Lang had retired from filmmaking. However, he hadn't retired from thinking about film. While his comments on his own works are very interesting, what amazed and pleasantly surprised me was that he was willing to talk about the New German Cinema of the Seventies, "Deep Throat," and the impact of TV on movies. Fritz Lang has the reputation of being a one-dimensional martinet. However, the interviews collected here reveal a complex man with an unexpected breadth of interests. It leaves the reader wishing he could have known Fritz Lang and envying those who did. |
