Question
In the opening montage of a 1992 film that pays homage to this movement, a voiceover warns the village children to keep silent, lest they start an avalanche. In a film from this movement, a woman finds her husband alone in a room, stabbing at the air with a knife that was in his piano. That film from this movement ends as a couple embraces after learning that Vasseur, the original owner of the title body parts, was not a murderer. Guy Maddin’s Careful visually imitates this movement by tinting frames in monochrome orange or blue. This movement is studied in Lotte Eisner’s (“LOT-uh EYES-nur’s”) The Haunted Screen and was linked to totalitarianism by Siegfried Kracauer (“KRAH-cow-er”). Robert Wiene’s (“VEE-nuh’s”) The Hands of Orlac is from this movement, along with a film whose villain’s claws appear in his silhouette as he ascends the stairs. For 10 points, F. W. Murnau’s Nosferatu was part of what movement? ■END■
