 Die Nibelungen
comment
Fritz Lang's Die Nibelungen ("The Nibelungs") is a two-part Epic Movie based on the medieval German epic Das Nibelungenlied. Starring Paul Richter as Siegfried and Margarete Schön as Kriemhild, it was highly faithful to the original poem and deliberately avoided Richard Wagner's famous version, The Ring of the Nibelung.In the first part, Siegfried, zillions of Fantasy tropes are seen on screen for the first time. This part was released in Germany on February 14, 1924. The grimmer and more realistic Kriemhild's Revenge (Kriemhilds Rache in the original German) was released two and a half months later on April 26. Combined, the two parts run four and a half hours.

comment
Darker and Edgier: Downplayed since Part 1 isn't any less violent than Part 2. That said, the first part was a lot more fantastical as it features dragons, dwarves, and a Nigh-Invulnerable protagonist. On the other hand, the second part is more realistic and lacks the fantasy elements of the first part.

Bros Before Hoes: Majorly violated by King Gunther, who has his best friend Siegfried killed in order to please his wife Brunhild. Even Brunhild herself, who told him to do it, is not impressed, instead laughing at him for being such a terrible bro.

comment
Gory Discretion Shot: The camera cuts away when Hagen kills Ortlieb. Note that in the original story, Hagen lopped off Ortlieb's head, which then rolled into Kriemhild's lap. In this version, we just see the dead Ortlieb with his head apparently still attached.
