Director: Fritz Lang
Setting in stone for the first time many elements of the modern spy thriller, Spione remains remarkably fresh and captivating over 75 years since its first release. Lang carefully reveals the elaborate methods of the spies as they move through his unknown city, no doubt creating a mirror of troubled Weimar Germany. Made by Lang's own production company and, like M and Metropolis, written by Lang with his wife Thea von Harbou, Spione is 'the Grandaddy of decades of intrigue epics. In its rigorous austerity it remains the most modern of the bunch.' (Elliott Stein, Village Voice).
