Directed by E.A. Dupont
E.A. Dupont, Ufa, 1925. Jannings is an acrobat who takes a younger partner (Lya de Putti) and then cannot live with the triangle. The confession starts in prison. Karl Freund lets the camera swing with the trapeze and through the crowd. The plot is pulp. The shooting is why Hollywood hired these people.
