Review of The Indian Tomb (1959) by Adam S — 04 Dec 2011
Originally intended for Fritz Lang, who wrote the screenplay with the novel's author, future wife Thea von Harbou, producer Joe May, realizing the blockbuster potential, swept it from under Lang's feet, severing their short partnership for good.
Lang would get his chance in 1959, but that film's campy excess isn't quite as beautiful or epic as May's, which, despite a less than blockbuster showing, remains one of Germany's key two-part spectacles of the silent years.
