Episode description

In The Lost One (AKA Der Verlorene) (1951) we find Peter Lorre as Dr. Karl Rothe (AKA Dr. Karl Neumeister), working at a displaced persons camp after World War II. When a figure from his past, Hösch (AKA Nowak) (Karl John), appears at the camp the two men reminisce about their shared history during the war.
The film is a tense film noir by way of the German trümmerfilm (rubble film) and the only feature directed by Peter Lorre.
Daniel Bird and Samm Deighan join Mike to discuss The Lost One, Fritz Lang's M, and much more.
