Young Törless

Running 1h 27m and made in Germany, Young Törless (1966) is a Drama film in the 123movies catalog. The cast includes Mathieu Carrière and Marian Seidowsky; Volker Schlöndorff directs. 65 votes put it at 6.6/10. At an Austrian boys' boarding school in the early 1900s, shy, intelligent Törless observes the sadistic behavior of his fellow students, doing nothing to help a victimized classmate—until the torture goes too far. Adapted from Robert Musil's acclaimed novel, Young Törless launched the New German Cinema movement and garnered the 1966 Cannes Film Festival International Critics' Prize for first-time director Volker Schlöndorff.
