Four Devils

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Four Devils is a 1928 silent film by the great German film director F. W. Murnau. It stars actress Janet Gaynor. The film was released by Fox Film and was commissioned by William Fox, who had hired Murnau to come to the USA and make movies, including this and Sunrise.

The plot of the film centered around sinister goings-on at a circus.

Sadly no copies of the movie are known to exist, and it is one of the great lost films. Details about the movie can be found on the DVD for Sunrise, which was released by 20th Century Fox as part of their 20th Century Fox Studio Classics collection.
