ABSTRACT
Mabuse and other examples of German mysticism. In these scenes we wanted to expose the fundamental and essential falsity of psychological fiction cinema and we were trying to show that the regular organisation of acting and montage work will give us the opportunity to get the better of every style and character of production, and in particular the American and German examples. We have made every effort to refrain from a personal approach to the film influenced by our 'taste': it was calculation and organisation that interested us because it is these that constitute the principal feature of our technical particularity.
