Abstract:
Patrick McGilligan, placed among "the front rank of film biographers" by the Washington Post, spent four years in Europe and America interviewing Fritz Lang's dying contemporaries, researching government and film archives, and investigating the intriguing life story of the visionary director. Ultimately, this critically acclaimed biography reconstructs the compelling, flawed human being behind the monster with the monocle.
