If you loved The Tiger of Eschnapur, try Secret Beyond the Door

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Fritz Lang, and they sit in Drama / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Tiger of Eschnapur, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Secret Beyond the Door is

Mexico City’s dry heat clattered with marimba tunes. A new bride steps off a steamship with nothing but a veil and a name she barely whispers. Inside the brownstone’s blue parlor, taxidermy birds watch. Past parlors, a bolted door hums like a held breath. Lang’s noir folds romance into shadow until the lock clicks.
