Der lebende Leichnam
Redemption is a 1930 American pre-Code drama film directed by Fred Niblo, produced and distributed by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, and starring John Gilbert. This production is Gilbert's first talking film, but it was not released until months after the premiere of "His Glorious Night", his second "talkie". "Redemption" is based on the 1918 Broadway play of the same title by Arthur Hopkins, who in turn based his work on the play "The Living Corpse" by Leo Tolstoy and first staged in Moscow in 1911.
