Queen of silent cinema ushers in era of modern acting through Criterion release
5 of 5 found this helpful Combining a feature booklet and a DVD bearing the most complete silent film print available in public of the movie (which was heavily censored in its first release in 1929), the Criterion release of Pandora's Box makes this silent classic available to the masses, separate from the usual and rare select showings in limited cities in the U.S. G.W. Pabst's classic starring Louise Brooks is accompanied by four different musical scores, which are user selectable, including a 'period score' for the time of its release in 1929. The original film was shot on location inside a dirigible hanger in Staaken, Germany (suburb of Berlin), the home of Staaken Studios. This site was the same sight used by Fritz Lang in the making of his own classic, Metropolis. Pabst's film company, Nero Film AG, rented the facilities in the fall of 1928. Shooting ran non-stop for five weeks. The studios long since gone, today the site consists of a soccer field and a public park. Louise Brooks' performance as Lulu placed her into the pantheon of silent cinema. Her impact was best described by the British film critic Kenneth Tynan: "She was the most seductive, sexual image of a woman ever committed to celluloid." Long live the memory of Louise Brooks, the goddess of the silent screen. - Phil Vorwald
