Never seen an Errol Morris film, but this is good stuff.

Re-enactments and hypnotic score.

  But this time everything was ten times more fun because I was able to see it on the big screen. 

Lucky.  I'm jealous. 

Yeah. Where did you see it? They're showing it at a theatre here in Toronto on Thursday followed by The Birds.

Does it make me a bad film geek that my reaction is, "why would I pay theatre bucks to see something that's available on DVD?"

Faust (F.W. Murnau, 1926) -

***

Glad you watched it.  I love Murnau and this is my favorite even more so than Sunrise.  I think what is so good about this movie is the imagery, the gothic presentation of the plague infested town is absolutely great.  I agree that the plot, especially the middle part does not really hold up, I think it was an attempt to turn Faust into something commercial (look a love story!) still overall its a great film.

More people need to watch this.
