People On Sunday represents an astonishing confluence of talent - an earIy collaboration by a group of German filmmakers who wouId all go on to become major HoIIywood players, incIuding eventuaI noir masters Robert Siodmak and Edgar G. Ulmer and future Oscar winners BiIly WiIder and Fred Zinneman . This effervescent, sunIit silent film, about a handful of city dweIlers enjoying a weekend outing , offers a rare glimpse of Weimar-era BerIin. A unique hybrid of documentary and fictional storyteIIing, PeopIe On Sunday was both an experiment and a mainstream hit that would influence generations of film artists around the worId. |
