Mephisto: A Subjective Review
Mephisto, a German film from 1981, depicts an actor’s life in Nazi-Germany. During the film, Mephisto shook me and tossed in a turbulent vortex until I reached the “corn of the poodle”. Nevertheless, in retrospect, this remarkable journey mesmerized me from the beginning to the end, I literarily sat with an open drooling mouth throughout the whole film. The effortlessness of the film, Mephisto, is close to that of a chameleon’s efficiency to shift between different tints of environments, or an actors ability to blend in. The fluidness of transactions in each action between scenes has the same flow of water in your brand new kitchen faucet. A film that everyone should see, and discuss in retrospect of the Mephisto experience. I give the film 10/10.
