Professor (Gosta Ekman) sells soul in exchange for youth.

Reviewed by Chris Tookey

F.W.Murnau’s silent classic from 1926 features huge, romantic sets, great chiascuro cinematography, and a magnificently hammy performance by Emil Jannings as Mephistopheles. A must-see for film historians, but the sad truth is that vast stretches of it are boring.
