Pandora's Box

Die Büchse der Pandora

Synopsis

Lulu is a young woman so beautiful and alluring that few can resist her siren charms. The men drawn into her web include respectable newspaper publisher Dr. Ludwig Schön, his musical producer son Alwa, circus performer Rodrigo Quast and Lulu’s seedy old friend, Schigolch.

MUBI's take

Imagine just how scandalous Pabst’s Pandora’s Box was when it came out in 1929: a brashly modern melodrama about the descent of a sexually liberated showgirl, played by one of cinema’s great icons. To quote Henri Langlois: “There is no Garbo. There is no Dietrich. There is only Louise Brooks!”
