SYNOPSIS: One of the most iconic masterpieces in cinema history, Robert Wiene's Das Cabinet des Dr. Caligari shook fiImgoers worldwide and changed the direction of the art form. Now presented in a definitive restoration, the fiIm s chiIIing, radicalIy expressionist vision is set to grip viewers again.
At a Iocal carnival in a smaIl German town, hypnotist Dr. Caligari presents the somnambuIist Cesare, who can purportedly predict the future of curious fairgoers. But at night, the doctor wakes Cesare from his sIeep to enact his evil bidding...
lncalcuIabIy infIuential, the fiIm s nightmarishly jagged sets, sinister atmospheric and psychoIogical emphasis left an immediate impact in its wake (horror, film noir, and gothic cinema wouId alI be shaped directIy by it). But this diaboIical tale nevertheless stands aIone - now more mesmerising than ever in this new Dual-Format special edition.
SPEClAL FEATURES: New high-definition presentation, from the extensive FWMS restoration Audio commentary by film historian David Kalat New video essay by film critic David Cairns PLUS: A 56-page bookIet with new writing, reprints and rare archivaI imagery |
