''The Doll Maker of Kiang-Ning'' (German: ''Der Puppenmacher von Kiang-Ning'') is a 1923 German silent fantasy film directed by Robert Wiene and starring Werner Krauss, Lia Eibenschütz and Ossip Runitsch. A doll maker in China crafts a puppet which he is convinced is lifelike. He takes it to exhibit at a public event, but is outraged to find an even more convincing and beautiful doll there. It is in fact a real woman pretending to be a doll, but he becomes so obsessed he attempts to steal her and the film ends with her rescue and his tragic death.〔Jung & Schatzberg p.104〕 The film had its premiere in Berlin in November 1923. It received a universally negative reception from critics who were particularly unimpressed by the attempt to portray Chinese culture using German actors.〔Jung & Schatzberg p.104-105〕 The film continues a wider theme in the director Robert Wiene's work which contrasts Western and Eastern cultures. ==Cast== * Werner Krauss * Lia Eibenschütz * Ossip Runitsch * Lucie Mannheim * Julius Falkenstein * Fritz Achterberg * Hans Schweikart * Eugen Rex * Yuri Yurovsky * Alexander Alexandrowski 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Doll Maker of Kiang-Ning」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
