"Ekspresjonizm to gra... Ale właściwie, czemu nie?" Mabuseria, czyli eksperyment ekspresjonistyczny w "Mocnym człowieku" Henryka Szaro
'Expressionism is a Game... And Why Not?' The expressionistic experiment in the "Strong Man" by Henryk Szaro

Summary/Abstract: The article is devoted to the analysis of Henryk Szaro’s film "The Strong Man" (1929) in the context of film expressionism. The author attempts to answer the question whether radical artistic experiments were possible in the inter-war period of cinema “focused on the viewer” (who in the collective consciousness was associated with Stefcia Rudecka, a tragic heroine of a kitsch, though extremely popular romantic novel and film, rather than Caligari). The obvious theme that had to appear in the author’s line of argument is the analysis of the impact of canonical works of the Weimar cinema of the period (particularly Fritz Lang’s Doctor Mabuse).
