Maurice D...

Directed by Maurice Diament

With Maurice D, an enigmatic silent film that could be situated somewhere between Luis Buñuel's Un Chien andalou and Alfred Hitchcock's La Loi du silence, another extremely rare auteur, Maurice Diament, is brought to light. The anxiety-inducing effect of his film was to be increased tenfold by the sound of the metronome that was supposed to accompany the screening.
