# The Mysterious Mirror (1928)

1928 · Fantasy · Germany

Original title: Der geheimnisvolle Spiegel

## Synopsis

The Mysterious Mirror, aka The Mystic Mirror is a 1928 German silent fantasy film directed by Carl Hoffmann and Richard Teschner, and starring Fee Malten, Fritz Rasp and Rina De Liguoro. The film was about a magic mirror which allowed the person looking into it to see his or her future, a theme that appeared similarly in the 1945 British horror film Dead of Night. The magazine Film und Volk, which was invariably hostile to UFA releases, described it as "about the limit of what an audience could be expected to tolerate in the way of stale Gothic Romance and unlikely psychology".
