The Films of Fritz Lang: Allegories of Vision and Modernity
Tom Gunning
In this remarkable new study, the renowned historian and theorist of
early cinema turns his attention to the work of Fritz Lang, proposing
new readings of the entire output of one of cinema's foremost directors.
Gunning examines the films not only as a stylistically coherent body of
work, but as an attempt to portray the modern world through cinema. The
world of modernity in which systems replace individuals is conveyed by
Lange's mastery of cinematic set design, composition, and editing. Lang
presents not only a decades-long vision of cinematic narrative that can
be compared to that of Alfred Hitchcock or Jean Renoir, but a view of
modernity that relates strongly to the ideas of Adorno, Brecht,
Benjamin, and Kracauer.
