The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari
Director: Rober Wiene
1919
The film tells the story of the deranged Doctor Caligari and his faithful somnambulist Cesare and their connection to a string of murders in a German mountain village, Holstenwall. Caligari presents one of the earliest examples of a motion picture "frame story" in which the body of the plot is presented as a flashback, as told by Francis. Friends Alan and Francis visit a carnival in the village where they see Dr. Caligari and Cesare, who Caligari is displaying as an attraction.
The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari is the first modern Horror Film and it influence a number of contemporary productions.
A real classic!
