The Blue Angel
(Joseph Von Sternberg; Germany; 1930; 106 min)

Thu., Nov. 12, 7:00 @ Melwood
Marlene Dietrich stars as the notorious nightclub singer "Lola Lola" whose unrestrained sexuality was a revelation to moviegoers of the early 1930s, and thrust her to the forefront of the sultry international leading ladies who were challenging the limits of screen sexuality. Emil Jannings (The Last Command) delivers a towering performance as the sexually repressed professor who is fatefully seduced and dragged down a path of personal degradation. With subtitles. (Joseph Von Sternberg; Germany; 1930; 106 min)
Part of the PittArts "Sex Symbols in Sepia Tones" Series. Pittsburgh Filmmakers adjunct assistant professor Barry Howell will introduce the film and lead a post-film discussion which includes a reception.
Presented in collaboration with PittArts.
