Journey into the Night
Journey into the Night (1921) is a Drama film from Germany in the GoMovies catalog, running 1h 21m. Directed by F. W. Murnau, it features Olaf Fønss and Erna Morena. Viewers rate it 6.1/10 from 23 votes. Dr. Egil Börne, an eminent physician, comes under the spell of an unscrupulous cabaret dancer and deserts his fiancée. The plot finds echoes throughout the Weimar period, including Sternberg’s The Blue Angel. Conrad Veidt appears in a supporting role as a sinister blind painter, whose entrance eerily presages Murnau’s Nosferatu. Der Gang in die Nacht, the earliest surviving film by F. W. Murnau, is also, paradoxically, the only Murnau film for which the original camera negative exists.
