(1931)“Who is the murderer?”
Synopsis
In this classic German thriller, Hans Beckert, a serial killer who preys on children, becomes the focus of a massive Berlin police manhunt. Beckert's heinous crimes are so repellant and disruptive to city life that he is even targeted by others in the seedy underworld network. With both cops and criminals in pursuit, the murderer soon realizes that people are on his trail, sending him into a tense, panicked attempt to escape justice.

“The movie is classic and yet this is my first time watching this. Peter Lorre alone is worth seeing this movie as he always played such the great villain. No music keeps your focus on the image and dialogue throughout the movie. Camera work looks pretty awesome especially when they start doing the manhunt. This movie clocks in at almost two hours so there will be a lot of pacing and dialogue to go through. It will feel a bit dragging when Lorre isn't on the screen but it is well worth going through the film to see how it all plays out.”
“So you say you want to enroll in film school? Don't bother. Just watch Fritz Lang's M and Metropolis.”
“Random person: Nobody knows him (The murderer). Woman who lives with the murderer: Am I a joke to you?”
“Stone cold classic. Certainly one of the best time films about orange peels being littered.”
