Von Stroheim treats luxury as evidence: uniforms, rooms, money, and social ritual reveal a world built on performance and appetite. The surviving release remains a forceful fragment of a much larger design.
無理なく楽しむために
Begin with the con rather than the production history. Once the false count’s method is clear, the elaborate setting becomes part of how credibility is manufactured. The MoMA and SFSFF restoration runs 147 minutes at 22 fps. BFI also lists 77 minutes without identifying the presentation in detail. Keep these records separate, and check the edition before planning a screening.

The count needs everyone to recognise the costume before they examine the man inside it. I watch the surroundings do half of his lying for him.
