Early Douglas Sirk - Criterion Channel Teaser

Before he became known as the king of the subversive, lavishly overwrought 1950s melodrama, German émigré director Douglas Sirk made his mark in Hollywood with a string of historical dramas, film noirs, comedies, and musicals. Displaying his sophistication, cutting intelligence, and visual flair, these unsung 1940s works-the sparkling caper A SCANDAL IN PARIS, the offbeat show-business satire SLIGHTLY FRENCH, and the perversely fascinating noirs LURED and SHOCKPROOF-paint a fuller picture of one of the studio era’s most intriguing and endlessly analyzed auteurs.

Love Sirk, Fassbinder, Melodrama!

You guys, early Sirk is the movies he made in Germany. Including Schlussakkord, which is a true masterpiece. You need to say Early Hollywood Sirk.
