Shell Shock Cinema
Explores how the classical German cinema of the Weimar Republic was haunted by the horrors of World War I and the trauma of Germany's humiliating defeat. This book argues that masterworks such as "The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari", "Nosferatu", "The Nibelungen", and "Metropolis" engaged the war and registered its tragic aftermath.
