Leaves from Satan's Book
Leaves from Satan's Book, also known as Leaves
Out of the Book of Satan, is a 1920 Danish fantasy film directed by Carl Theodor Dreyer and starring Helge Nissen as Satan.
This was only the third film directed by Dreyer, who later went on to create such classics as" Vampyr"( 1931) and" The Passion of Joan of Arc"( 1928).
The film is structured much like D.W. Griffith's Intolerance"( film)"( 1916) with its episodic nature while evoking F. W. Murnau's Satan"( 1920 film)"( 1920).
The film ran 157 minutes, but sources list the DVD's running time at 121 minutes.
Troy Howarth states" If not for the presence of Satan,( this film) would n't warrant inclusion in a study of the horror genre; in truth it's more of a quaint pageant play than a horror film ...
The cast emotes to a degree too theatrical for even silent cinema."
