criticism

Oskar Kalbus ' Vom Werden deutscher Filmkunst' wrote: “With a very fortunate combination of Goethe's formation of the material and new historical motifs from the history and life of the knight with the iron fist, 'Götz von Berlichingen' was filmed by the director Hubert Moest (1925 ). Eugen Klöpfer played an internalized, soft Götz, his wife was Lucie Höflich, Paul Hartmann gave the Weißlingen, Gertrud Welcker the Countess Adelheid. "
