Der Letzte Mann (The Last Laugh)
PG
Die Letzte Mann was a 1924 gem made by F. W. Murnau at time when it was greatly viewed as a success to the older generation who the world seem to be casting aside for younger, hipper, more modern thinking. The film shows the life, failure, loss and finally in a fantasy sequence, success of a doorman who is played by very able and flexible Emil Jannings. The Last Laugh (English title) show us that old people are worth much more then we sometimes treat them as.
