Second, the work itself.
Third, the text of the original novel by von Harbou. There was also a PB of it around the same time. It's a bit stilted, but there's so much more to the narrative than there is in the film- then again, I've yet to see the recently rediscovered print!; 2:15 AM

Seeing it presented like this has renewed the sesne of awe that I had when I first stumbled across it years ago. Envy is a negative emotion, I know, but I cannot help it. Your collection of images is truly one to be envied.; 3:23 AM
