The original Nosferatu (1922) is a brilliant flick. Especially clever was the relation of the arrival of the vampire with the arrival of plague, a detail that was not in the original book.
HOWEVER. When the captain of the ship that brings Count Orlok to Germany ties himself to the wheel, he uses a granny knot. NO. NO WAY. Not believable.

"And, near the god-machines, the slaves of the god-machines: the men who were as though crushed between machine companionability and machine solitude. They have no loads to carry: the machine carries the loads. They have not to lift and push: the machine lifts and pushes. They have nothing else to do but eternally one and the same thing, each in this place, each at his machine. Divided into periods of brief seconds, always the same clutch at the same second, at the same second. They have eyes, but they are blind but for one thing, the scale of the manometer. They have ears, but they are deaf but for one thing, the hiss of their machine. They watch and watch, having no thought but for one thing: should their watchfulness waver, then the machine awakens from its feigned sleep and begins to race, racing itself to pieces. And the machine, having neither head nor brain, with the tension of its watchfulness, sucks and sucks out the brain from the paralysed skull of its watchman, and does not stay, and sucks, and does not stay until a being is hanging to the sucked-out skull, no longer a man and not yet a machine, pumped dry, hollowed out, used up. And the machine which has sucked out and gulped down the spinal marrow and brain of the man and has wiped out the hollows in his skull with the soft, long tongue of its soft, long hissing, the machine gleams in its silver-velvet radiance, anointed with oil, beautiful, infallible - Baal and Moloch, Huitzilopochtli and Durgha. And you, father, you press your fingers upon the little blue metal plate near your right hand, and your great glorious, dreadful city of Metropolis roars out, proclaiming that she is hungry for fresh human marrow and human brain and then the living food rolls on, like a stream, into the machine-rooms, which are like temples, and that, just used, is thrown up...."
Thea von Harbou, 1925 (Harbou wrote the novel Metropolis, and then the screenplay for the Fritz Lang adaption. This is from the original novel.)

"How Did German Expressionism Change The History of Cinema?"
German Expressionism was the angsty, stylized, and intense postwar cinema of Weimar Germany. The nightmarish shadows and innovative compositions revolutionized filmmaking forever.

They just wanted to tell the truth. Far from homogenous, they ended up "agitating the viewing public to the very depth of its soul." Those German Expressionists—Die Brücke, conveying a feverish delirium, and Der Blaue Reiter, united by a love of nature. Then came the Degenerates. https://www.christies.com/features/german-expressionism-guide-12084-1.aspx?sc_lang=en#fid-12084

Kandinsky had a spiritual relationship with music, believing it could reveal the route to a new art that shed material appearances in favor of an inner reality. But which music guided his pursuit of an art that reveals a mystical, inner truth? https://hyperallergic.com/731339/on-kandinskys-spiritual-relationship-with-music/?fbclid=IwAR0amoVwsbSI49UYBiRZweOY2bHcBS4crk4rwFMs8cdLsnz8_cRqbxhs3tY

Joe May’s 1929 German silent film Asphalt, both the last gasp of German Expressionism and the first step on the road to film noir. A young cop is seduced into a noir nightmare world by a sexy jewel thief femme fatale.
Betty Amann's performance is a highlight.
Not pure noir but noirish.
