LOUISE BROOK in DIARY of a LOST GIRL (1929) (1363)

I had a university student from Switzerland residing in my house who was somewhat obsessed in trying to define women in a classical definition and I thought to myself, he can just as well argue about the sexes of the angels in heaven, the angels in hell don't matter. Stooping to such level of stupidity is beyond me. Whatever, I am fascinated with Louise Brooks hair style and the beauty it exudes with her bangs hiding her forehead.

Diary of a Lost Girl (German: Tagebuch einer Verlorenen) is a 1929 German silent film directed by G. W. Pabst. The film was shot in black and white, and diverse versions of the film ranged from 79 minutes to 116 minutes in length. This was Brooks' second and last film with Pabst, and like their previous collaboration, Pandora's Box, many film historians consider it to be a classic. It is based on the controversial and bestselling 1905 novel of the same name by Margarete Böhme. The novel had been previously adapted by Richard Oswald as Diary of a Lost Woman.

Thymian Henning, the innocent, naive daughter of pharmacist Robert Henning, is puzzled when their housekeeper, Elisabeth, leaves suddenly on the day of Thymian's confirmation. It turns out that her father has made Elisabeth pregnant. Elisabeth's body is brought to the pharmacy later that day, an apparent suicide by drowning, upsetting Thymian.

Pandora's Box (German: Die Büchse der Pandora) is a 1929 German silent drama film directed by Georg Wilhelm Pabst. The film follows Lulu, a seductive young woman whose uninhibited nature brings ruin to herself and those who love her. It is based on Frank Wedekind's plays Erdgeist ("Earth Spirit", 1895) and Die Büchse der Pandora ("Pandora's Box", 1904).

Dismissed by critics on its initial release, Pandora's Box was later rediscovered by film scholars as a classic of Weimar German cinema. Pandora's Box (1929 film) - Wikipedia

Article about Lucrezia Borgia, dir. by Richard Oswald, on Diário de Lisboa, 2 June 1925

Some more mispelling yay...

The translation is clunky because so is the origin text.

Translation:

The greatest tragedies

Lucrecia Borgia

Not many historical tragedies have achieved so much popularity and such publicity as the tragic and nefarious story of Borgias' Crimes, a family marked by the stigma of fatality and crime that bloodied the history of Renaissance Rome with the most terrible crimes, the result of their paranoia, putting the abominable Cesare Borgia alongside classical tyranical figures, Nero, Caligula and Elagabalus. The cinematographic transposition of this time period was done by Richard Oswald, who tried to rehabilitate "Lucrecia Borgia" from the stains that some investigators had cast on her, scratches the sublime. The staging is of an opulence and marvellousness never exceeded and the artists are geniuses and phycially adequate for their roles. The premiere of this "super-film" at the Cinema Condes is going to be one of the biggest sensations of beauty. The names of Conrad Veidt and Liane Haid, their performers, are safe guarantee.

ANDERS ALS DIE ANDERN (1919) dir. Richard Oswald Paul Korner is a homosexual musician who falls in love with his protégé Kurt. Unfortunately, the two are seen walking hand in hand by the blackmailer Franz. Though Paul agrees to Franz's demands at first, it gets out of hand and he ends up refusing to pay, resulting in dire consequences for the lovers. This film was intended as a polemic against the then-current laws under Germany's Paragraph 175, and it is believed to be the first pro-gay film in the world. (link in title)
