If you loved La mujer en la luna, try El testamento del Dr. Mabuse
Un puente entre una película que ya has visto y una que casi nadie ha cruzado. Esto es lo que comparten, y lo que la segunda hace que la primera no hace.
Lo que comparten
Both films are directed by Fritz Lang, and they both carry the foreign gem mood tag. If that's the register that drew you to La mujer en la luna, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What El testamento del Dr. Mabuse is
A lunatic asylum east of Berlin, dawn frost on the windows. A patient scrawls invisible orders while keepers hum hymns. Detective Lohmann wakes in a padded cell, watched by a colleague who speaks in riddles. Professor Baum claims the criminal genius Mabuse has been dead for years yet his rambling treatise still steers new heists across the city. Lang’s Weimar shadow-play where ink bleeds into blood and silence howls.
