In payment for Kriemhild&#8217;s hand, Gunther asks for Siegfried&#8217;s help in winning the mighty Brunhild (Hanna Ralph) as his wife &#8212; but when Brunhild discovers that Siegfried has used magic to trick her into marriage, she seeks revenge, enlisting the help of Gunther&#8217;s treacherous half-brother, Hagen Tronje (Hans Adalbert von Schlettow), to murder him.\n<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<p>\n<strong>Genres, Themes, Actors, and Directors:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Fantasy<\/li>\n<li>Fritz Lang Films<\/li>\n<li>Revenge<\/li>\n<li>Royalty and Nobility<\/li>\n<li>Silent Films<\/li>\n<li>Strong Females<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Response to Peary&#8217;s Review: <\/strong><br \/>\nThis first installment of Fritz Lang&#8217;s two-part, five-hour saga &#8212; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.answers.com\/nibelungen\">based on an early 13th century Norse epic poem<\/a> &#8212; is, as Peary notes, &#8220;a marvel, one of the truly great silent films, and one of the most spectacular ventures into fantasy and legend&#8221; that has ever graced the silver screen. It&#8217;s full of countless memorable moments and images &#8212; all stunningly choreographed and framed &#8212; with its expressive sets and cinematography evoking &#8220;the paintings of <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Arnold_B%C3%B6cklin\">Swiss Romanticist Arnold Bocklin<\/a>&#8221; (who also inspired the set of Skull Island in <a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/?p=43687\">1933&#8217;s <em>King Kong<\/em><\/a>). The story itself is consistently exciting, &#8220;subtle enough for adults and magical enough for kids&#8221;, and many of the special effects remain impressive. While I&#8217;m not a fan of the early dragon fight (it&#8217;s hard not to laugh when we see &#8220;blood&#8221; gushing out of the hole Siegfried pokes in its cardboard side), many other fantasy scenes &#8212; including Siegfried&#8217;s use of magic to help Gunther fight against Brunhild, and the Nibelungen dwarves turning to stone &#8212; are noteworthy. <\/p>\n<p>Although <em>Siegfried<\/em> is ostensibly about its titular hero, it&#8217;s interesting to note that strong females play an important part in both this film and its sequel (<em>Kriemhild&#8217;s Revenge<\/em>). Brunhild is a no-holds-barred warrior woman who surrounds herself with a bevy of female associates; and while Peary notes that she &#8220;harbors a secret love for Siegfried&#8221; (a fact which is apparently borne out in the original story), it&#8217;s not made explicit here. Instead, Brunhild comes across as simply a powerful female who resents being forced to marry and give up her independence; significantly, it&#8217;s her actions and motivations which propel the tragic final half of the film. It should also be noted how androgynous the leads appear: Margarete Schon and Hanna Ralph are positively transgendered, while Siegfried &#8212; with his wildly poofed-out hair and dramatic make-up &#8212; makes for a somewhat &#8220;feminine&#8221; counterpart. Ultimately, then, <em>Siegfried<\/em> remains a mythic tale of larger-than-life beings who transcend traditional gender roles, instead embodying core human emotions and values. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Redeeming Qualities and Moments: <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Paul Richter as Siegfried<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/09\/richter.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/09\/richter.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4324\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Hanna Ralph as Brunhild<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/09\/brunhild.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/09\/brunhild.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4313\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>The wonderfully androgynous Margerete Schon as Kriemhild<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/09\/siegfried-schon.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/09\/siegfried-schon.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4359\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Marvelous set designs<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/09\/set-designs.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/09\/set-designs.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4315\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>The baroque costumes and headdresses<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/09\/headdress.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/09\/headdress.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4316\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Carl Hoffman and Gunther Rittau&#8217;s cinematography<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/09\/fighting-dragon.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/09\/fighting-dragon.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4318\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Brunhild&#8217;s luminous castle<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/09\/castle.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/09\/castle.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4319\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>The fiery plains surrounding Brunhild&#8217;s castle<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/09\/fiery.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/09\/fiery.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4320\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>The Nibelungen dwarves turning into stone<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/09\/dwarves.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/09\/dwarves.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4321\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Siegfried and Kriemhild&#8217;s brief but intense romance<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/09\/romance.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/09\/romance.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4322\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Siegfried using magic to help Gunther win Brunhild&#8217;s hand in marriage<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/09\/magic-winning.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/09\/magic-winning.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4323\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>A refreshing depiction of a truly <em>strong<\/em> female (Brunhild)<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/09\/strong-females.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/09\/strong-females.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4326\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Lang&#8217;s &#8220;geometric&#8221;
