Description

"Caligari is considered the quintessential work of German Expressionist cinema, and by far the most famous and well-regarded example of it.It is considered a classic film, often shown in introductory film courses, film societies and museums, and is one of the most famous German films from the silent era. Film scholar Lewis Jacobs called it "most widely discussed film of the time".

Caligari helped draw worldwide attention to the artistic merit of German cinema, while also bringing legitimacy to the cinema among literary intellectuals within Germany itself. Lotte Eisner has said it was in Expressionism, as epitomized in Caligari, that "the German cinema found its true nature 'caligarism' was coined as a result, referring to a style of similar films that focus on such themes as bizarre madness and obsession, particularly through the use of visual distortion.Expressionism was late in coming to cinema, and by the time Caligari was released, ure.

The term many German critics felt the art form had become commercialized and trivialized.
