Watch a clip of Janet Gaynor in Murnau's silent film Sunrise to really register once and for all how we as a culture, generation after generation, make the mothers we so desperately need vulnerable to violence, and to annihilating despair.

The landscape subjects, softened geometries and delicious colors recall the Murnau village landscapes of German Expressionist Gabriele Mnter, who influenced the contemporaneous paintings of her then-fiancé, Wassily Kandinsky (they lived together but never married).

A throwback of sorts to director Sam Raimi’s Evil Dead trilogy (particularly during a late, altogether showstopping sequence in which the film’s villainous spirit inhabits the bodies of several living characters), the film is appropriately nasty and unrelenting, torturing its main protagonist (and, likewise, the audience) with nerve-racking setpieces as traditional in conception (the use of shadow recalls Murnau’s Nosferatu) as they are expert in execution.
