One of the crowning achievements of the German expressionist movement, Friedrich Wilhelm Murnau's THE LAST LAUGH stars Emil Jannings as an aging doorman whose happiness crumbles when he is relieved of the duties and uniform which had for years been the foundation of his happiness and pride. Through Jannings¹s colossal performance, THE LAST LAUGH becomes more than the plight of a single doorman, but a mournful dramatization of the frustration and anguish of the universal working class. Restored in 2003 by Luciano Berriatúa and the Friedrich-Wilhelm- Murnau-Stiftung, this Kino edition is the definitive version of a silent masterwork, presented with unprecedented clarity and a new orchestral recording of the original 1924 score.

This is not German Expressionism but Kammerspiel. It is a does not have the intricate sets and lighting of the Expressionism technique. See Murneau's "Sunrise", for example, to see Expressionism.

O my gosh! The clarity old nitrate film was able to capture is so wonderful! I would have to say that this film was a crowning achievement in brilliant camera work and rich in story and acting, but not of German Expressionism-- KALIGARI tops this in the abstract form of German Expressionism. How ever, I feel Murnau's guys were superior in camera technique and could not help but be influenced by the expressionists, particularly in the way they used minatures (FAUST) LAst Laugh has the drunk scene

@akmediascope All I know is that Max Schreck still went on with a movie career and he died 14 years after he made NOSFERATU.

really reveals the emotive talent of emil Jannings. I love KINO, Does anyone know what happened to Max Schreck? Did he come to Hollywood too?
