Dood Water is a 1934 Dutch drama film directed by Gerard Rutten.
Reception
The film won the Coppa Istituto Luce at Venice Film Festival (1934), for best cinematography, by Andor von Barsy.
Writing for The Spectator, Graham Greene praised the film's documentary prologue as "an exciting piece of pure cinema", and commented that the story which follows "has some of the magnificent drive one felt behind the classic Russian films, behind Earth and The General Line: no tiresome 'message', but a belief in the importance of a human activity truthfully reported". Greene also noted, however, that "the photography is uneven: at moments it is painfully 'arty', deliberately out of focus".[1]
