In Reply to: Speaking of influences... posted by Victor Khomenko on December 29, 2003 at 05:06:34:
Max Reinhardt ( née Goldman ) was the father of impressionism for the theater and movie, his influence and role goes far beyond any thing done till there.
Of course all the Murnau´s & Lang & Einsenstein.. ecetera.. had they own strong expression .
Of course a sort of synergy did have to happen above all frontiers and I am not really keen to says who started first as in my understanding there is NO copyright as everything belong to THE people...in a perfect world, of course, so I give to cesar what belongs to him, in one word, Max Reinhardt!
Follow Ups:
I don't recall seeing any of his films (although I might have during my early years...), and the only one available here is his last work - the Midsummer Night's Dream... but I presume you were talking about the earlier ones - right?
It was his ONLY / co / film with Diterle!
No, his influence came directly from his theater, you must read the books from Lotte Eisner!
You will see the power of Max Reinhardt on actors, scenes, lightning.. ecetera.
One word: immense!
