Walter Lang (August 10, 1896 – February 7, 1972) was an American film director.
Early life
Walter Lang was born in Tennessee. As a young man he went to New York City where he found clerical work at a film production company. The business piqued his artistic instincts and he began learning the various facets of filmmaking and eventually worked as an assistant director. However, Lang also had ambitions to be a painter and left the United States for a time to join the great gathering of artists and writers in the Montparnasse Quarter of Paris, France. Things did not work out as Lang hoped and he eventually returned home and to the film business.
Career
In 1925, Walter Lang directed his first silent film, The Red Kimono. In the mid-1930s, he was hired by 20th Century Fox where, as a director, he "painted" a number of the spectacular colorful musicals for which Fox Studios became famous for producing during the 1940s. One of Lang's most recognized films is his 1956 epic The King and I for which he was nominated for the Academy Award for Directing.

After the assassination, Svoboda is forced to hide with the help of a young woman named Mascha and her father, Professor Novotny.
The Nazis take hostages and threaten mass executions to force the assassin to come forward.
The resistance frames a collaborator, Emil Czaka, for the murder, leading to his execution by the Nazis.
Evaluation
Hangmen Also Die! is a compelling wartime thriller that effectively captures the tension and fear of living under Nazi occupation.
The film's atmosphere is dark and oppressive, with the Nazis portrayed as ruthless and ideological gangsters.
The themes of loyalty, betrayal, and resistance are well-explored, making it a powerful piece of wartime propaganda.
For a film made during World War II, it is surprisingly nuanced and not afraid to show the human cost of resistance.
The performances, especially by Brian Donlevy and Walter Brennan, are strong, and the direction by Fritz Lang ensures a gripping narrative.
