I’m in love with Lang’s ability to create solid characters back in the 20s. His films are always so enjoyable.

Don't love this as much on rewatch, but it's still Lang going full Lang in the coolest and most aesthetic way possible. It's really good fun and impeccable craft. Pretty similar to Mabuse all things considered.
