M...

saw the latest print on the big screen the other night.

What a marvel, easily one of the best films we've seen and
we were AMAZED we hadn't seen it previously.

{sigh}... We thought we had. We recognized iconic scenes used
in various film histories.

A timeless tale told in perfect fashion, seeing this will propel
me to check out more of the post German Fritz Lang films
which are much less familiar to me than the half dozen or so silent
films viewed so far.

Earlier prints (post 1960) of M were edited and messed with to no end; this
print from 4 years ago is supposedly as close to the original release
as is possible. MANY scenes inserted had no sound and were like
snapshots inserted to make the story more cohesive.

What a brilliant film!
