The culmination of probably the most greatest careers in film history, F. W. Murnau’s Sunrise blends a story of fable-like simplicity with unparalleled visual imagination and technical ingenuity. Invited to Hollywood by William Fox and given total artistic freedom on any project he wished, Murnau’s tale of the idyllic marriage of a peasant couple (George O’Brien and Janet Gaynor) threatened by a vamp-like seductress from the city (Margaret Livingston) created a milestone of film expressionism. Made in the twilight of the silent era, Sunrise became both a swan song for a vanishing medium and probably the most few films to instantly achieve legendary status. Winner of three Oscars for Best Actress (Gaynor), Cinematography, and a never-repeated award for ‘Unique and Artistic Picture’, its influence and stature has only grown with every passing year. …Sunrise ( Sunrise: A Song of Two Humans ) ( Sun rise: A Song of 2 Humans ) (Blu-Ray & DVD Combo)
