UNDERWORLD 1927 Josef von Sternberg silent crime drama
Underworld is the greatest of all silent gangster films, and it was highly influential on the classic crime dramas of the early 1930s. Director Josef von Sternberg, along with cinematographer Bert Glennon, creates a visual masterpiece, with consciously dark motifs offset by the effective and judicious lighting of art director Hans Dreier's sets. The film retains interest when viewed by current-day audiences, and it is an excellent example of the European-influenced artistic creativity that came to prominence in the United States during the late 1920s. While by no means the first film of its type, Underworld was nonetheless the starting point for the gangster film as a part of U.S. cultural mythology. At the first Academy Awards ceremony in May 1929, the film received one award, for story writer Ben Hecht. EXCELLENT quality print.
