Light And Shadows Of F W MURNAU
Faust / Faust: Eine deutsche Volkssage
Germany
Directors: F.W. Murnau
Synopsis
God and Satan war over earth; to settle things, they wager on the soul of Faust, a learned and prayerful alchemist. During a plague, Faust despairs and burns his books after failing to stop death; Satan sends Mephisto to tempt Faust, first with insight into treating the plague and then with a day's return to youth. Faust trades his soul for youth. Faust promptly sees and falls in love with the beautiful Gretchen, whose liaison with him brings her dishonor.Details of Cast
