Foreign Chops #8: German Expressionism

by Steve · December 6, 2012 · Foreign Chops · 1 Comment

We got a nice response for this final edition of Foreign Chops for 2012. Lined up for you are some of the most infuential films from the early days of film, featuring the work of some of the greatest early directors.

Presumably, Foreign Chops will announce the next topic and the first of 2013 in the next couple of weeks, so keep watching for an upcoming announcement from whomever will be taking over this spot. Until then, sit back and enjoy a trip through some early and important films from when directors were still figuring out the language of cinema.
