G.W. Pabst's famous silent classic about the beautiful and sensual Lulu (Louise Brooks), an "earth spirit" who lives only for sex. First released in a version so censored that it was almost unrecognizable, this centennial reissue lovingly restores much of the film's original outspoken sexuality and stylistics. Telling the story of the nymph who seduces men and women to their doom, this film's revolutionary portrait of a sex goddess influenced the work of Sternberg, Ophuls, Mizoguchi and Fassbinder. A true classic. More at kino.com
