  • "Murnau's interest in portraying the lives of ordinary country people, in what has been described as 'a sort of rural kammerspielfilm', goes back to his middle German period (see The Burning Earth). The production of City Girl was overtaken by the changeover to sound and was not released as the silent film prepared by Murnau that has nonetheless survived while the 67 min re-edited and partly reshot sound version has been lost. In portraying the relation between city and country it is the city girl who is deceived by the illusion of the country whereas in the companion film, Sunrise, it is the man from the country who is dazzled by the city vamp and the lure of the metropolis."@en
  • "A vivid, painterly study of an impulsive and fragile marriage among the wheatfields of Minnesota. During a brief stay in Chicago, innocent farmer s son Lem falls for and weds Kate, a hard-bitten but lonely waitress. Upon bringing her home at the start of harvest time, the honeymoon soon turns into a claustrophobic struggle as they contend with the bitter scorn of his father and the invasive, leering jealousy of the farm s labouring community. Tenderly romantic and tough-minded in equal measure, City Girl is one of cinemas great pastorals, featuring some of the most delicate performances Murnau ever directed."
