...dismiss many of the prurient and personally vindictive accusations that plagued Lang. Colin McArthur’s book on The Big Heat, Tom Gunning’s new book on Lang and a recent retrospective of Lang’s work at England’s National Film Institute, are just a few examples of his rehabilitation. Harvard is also doing its part to give Lang the credit that he deserves with this new film series at the HFA, with the assistance of the Goethe Institut Boston. I highly recommend that everyone go the Film Archive and see the films...

...life somewhere else. Djelic is one of the few who has come back. Though he looks a bit like an overgrown schoolboy in a business suit, he has had a brilliant career in France and the United States.
