The Beauty of the Land: Anthony Slide on Andre De Toth and the Indian Fighter
Short doc in which Anthony Slide (Andre De Toth on Andre De Toth) discusses the work of Andre De Toth in general and The Indian Fighter in particular.
On February 26, 1920, Robert Wiene's world-famous film The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari premiered at the Marmorhaus in Berlin. To this day, it is considered a manifesto of German expressionism; a legend of cinema and a key work to understand the nature of the Weimar Republic and the constant political turmoil in which a divided society lived after the end of the First World War.

As he struggled with self-doubt, engaging in a lonely tug-of-war between needing to express himself and wanting to shut the world out, Pollock began a downward spiral.
