About Spider's Web
Ulrich Mühe plays a German businessman who was born completely without scruples. This makes him an eminently suitable candidate for success in the chaotic years after World War I. The shameless man's story is contrasted with that of his polar opposite, a Jewish anarchist.
Directed by Bernhard Wicki, Spider's Web leans on a strong ensemble — Ulrich Mühe, Klaus Maria Brandauer, Armin Mueller-Stahl — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1989.
