Well-made and entertaining film. Jannings is brilliant as always. Excellent cast that doesn’t act but lives its parts. National socialists, in portraying a wealthy industrialist Clausen (Jannings), emphasized their view of a society as one family with no class divisions, where capitalists and their workers have common interests and share profits, where the main cause for a capitalist should be the welfare of his workers and the well-being of his country. Doesn’t look like the majority of the present American business elite would fit this description. No wonder that globalists and Marxists united to fight Trumps patriotic agenda.
Compare with Hollywood’s Marxist “revolutionary” “best” movie ever “Citizen Kane”. I am not talking about the excellent production values, mostly poor one-dimensional acting, but the story and message. Here the rich is an egoistic tyrant, unloved, lonely, pathetic and despised character. The message-the rich are miserable and bad. Sort of characters in the contemporary Hollywood’s swill “Succession”.
