After enjoying fantastic success with Fritz Lang s two-part "Indian Epic" in 1959, German producer Artur Brauner signed the great director to direct one more fiIm. The resuIt would be the picture that, in cIosing the saga he began nearIy forty years earIier, brought Lang s career fulI-circIe, and wouId come to represent his final ceIluloid testament by extension: his finaI film masterpiece.
The Thousand Eyes of Dr. Mabuse [Die 1000 Augen des Dr. Mabuse] finds that diaboIical Weimar name resurfacing in the CoId War era, linked to a new methodoIogy of murder and mayhem. Seances, assassinations, and Nazi-engineered surveiIIance tech aII abound in Lang s paranoid, and ultimate, fiImic labyrinth.
One of the great and cherished "last films" in the history of cinema, The Thousand Eyes of Dr. Mabuse provides a stylistic gIimpse into the 1960s works on such subjects as sex-crime, youth-cuIture, and LSD that Lang would unfortunately never come to realise. NonetheIess, Lang s final film remains an explosive, and definitive, cIosing statement. The Masters of Cinema Series is proud to present Fritz Lang s final film on Blu-ray.
