Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: ominous; themes: isolation, mystery, obsession; style notes: high-contrast lighting, tight close-ups, static camera, expressionist framing

A bald man with wild hair and pointed ears is shown in close-up and medium shots inside a dimly lit room. He examines a map and later holds a letter while another person is partially visible in the background.

The record

Published 1922, so any US term has expired; no US registration under this title appears in the catalog. The status is a calculation from the date, not a finding about a record. The finding concerns the US copyright record for the film; it is not clearance for any use, and this page's annotation is machine output.
