Fritz Lang’s first film with sound, and considered to be his finest work, is a landmark psychological thriller with a striking performance from Peter Lorre. Determined to catch an elusive child murderer (Lorre), the Berlin police begin rounding up every criminal in town. Looking to take the heat off their activities, the underground mob decide to form their own manhunt. Capturing the intense and terrifying mood before the Nazi party came to power, Lang’s film works as both social critique and the blueprint for many modern filmmakers.
