with one movie "lost", I'd doubt you get to see the trilogy

Hitler banned the Golem movies, in case you're interested

He also banned most Fritz Lang movies after Lang deserted Germany, except for the Uber Alles "Metropolis" and "Die Nibellungen" (both written by Nazi sympathiser and Lang's ex-wife Thea Harbour)

I have a strong interest in Weimar-era silent German films
Do you know why he banned them?
