Your thoughts on Lang are interesting because I have the exact opposite opinion of his films. And I enjoy them so much precisely because his films move so fast. He always seems to have a powerful, driving narrative.

Also, I thought the cinematography in his other films, while not matching the amazing levels of Metropolis, is still pretty incredible. I'm thinking of the long, silent sequence in M where the underworld tracks down Peter Lorre's character. That's just far beyond what most other directors were capable of at that time.

Anyways, I didn't mean this as an attack. Just thought it was interesting that we saw things so differently.

I also loved Duck Soup. It's my favorite of the Marx Bros films, mainly for the political satire, but I definitely agree that Cavalcade was a snoozer.
