Review of Méphisto (1931) by Margarita S — 10 Sep 2015
This movie packs a powerful punch. It covers a heavy topic and the dialogue is thick with ideas. Brandauer's performance as the torn Hoefgen is magical. What a wonderfully layered performance! It's a very thoughtful movie - sometimes the speed at which the ideas come at you is head spinning and this manic energy can be exhausting at times.
It is though an incredibly engaging movie and worth watching more than once.
