Austrian Secret Service Chief: It is now my duty to point out to you that the profession of a spy is the most ignoble calling on earth, lower than anything you have have ever experienced. And it is dangerous, of course.
Marie Kolverer: I've had an inglorious life. It may become my good fortune to have a glorious death.

Featured review
Under-rated von Sternberg
Having just viewed this movie for the first time, I must say that from what I've seen written about Dishonored it seems somewhat unappreciated. While perhaps not a masterpiece on the level of other von Sternberg/Dietrich pairings, such as the two greats The Blue Angel and Blonde Venus, like them both it oozes with the unmistakable marks of its director: the stark dialogue, the lavish attention to atmosphere (such as all the wonderful interiors), and a pervading sense of marvelous oddness. Von Sternberg shows us that the real triumph of his cinema is not one of the reality it affords, but one of style, of which Dishonored has enough to spare.
