Pandora's Box
Louise Brooks dazzles as the iconic showgirl who leaves a trail of destruction in her wake, in one of the great silent films of the Weimar era.
Director: G.W. Pabst
Overview
Pabst’s startlingly modern adaptation of Wedekind’s Lulu plays follows the downward spiral of a vivacious showgirl, brought vibrantly to life by a live-wire Louise Brooks, wreaking casual havoc on all she encounters through the sheer power of charisma. Brooks’ irresistible charm and pathos made her a star, and anchored this sexually frank melodrama of lust, greed and violence.
mild violence, threat, sex references
