Overview
Fritz Lang was the visionary director of "Metropolis, "M," "Fury," "The Big Heat," "The Woman in the Window," and over 30 other memorable films. But what lurks behind Fritz Lang's legendary genius? Did he murder his first wife? Did he really refuse an offer from Hitler to become the Third Reich's ÔFuhrer of Film' before he fled to the U.S.' Was Lang a sensitive artist or a sadomasochist whose cruel on-set behavior was mirrored in a sordid love life crowded with prostitutes and mistresses? Marlene Dietrich said that "Fritz Lang was the director I detested most." Here Patrick McGilligan demolishes the myths created by Lang himself and reconstructs the fascinating, flawed human being behind the monster with the monocle. B&W photos.
